TN5250 for Positive User Reviews

AS400 access from the IPhoneGreat app saves me from kicking on the laptop for late-night issues as well as assigning tickets as well as approving requisitions great job guys.Version: 2.6

Great for iSeries app admins.I used to use this app on my previous job an it saved me a lot of time by not going to my pc... Open emulator... Etc.. Etc.. Also good to troubleshoot as400 software issues.. Just love it... I just wish I can get my old job back to use it again....Version: 2.0

Amazing app!With the latest update, which has added a single, complete on-screen keyboard as well as support for a wireless keyboard, this app now has everything I need to do my job from anywhere. Check it out!.Version: 0

Needs F-key supportMuch more usable from the iPad, but what stops this from being a killer app is support for F-keys on a wireless keyboard. If this gets updated it will get 5 stars and make my things much more convenient for me..Version: 1.5

Great 5250 emulatorIf you know what this app is for, then you already know you need it. Perfect, simple 5250 emulation with SSL support..Version: 2.0

Works great!Straight-forward app without any issues..Version: 2.5

ExcellentWorked great first try. I was able to remotely fix user issues and run backups from my handset..Version: 0

Great appReally enjoy this app and it does everything I need. I do wish this app had better keyboards for iPad. I wish the keyboards would act similar to the ones in Numbers or another app called Jump..Version: 0

Spot onWe love the IBM Iseries for its fantastic reliability and this app allows remote access easily and cheaply by iPad. The layout of the keyboard is superb, allowing natural access to the green screen as if in the office. The wonderful resolution of the iPad makes up for a small green screen in portrait. It should be said it's not great landscape because you have to switch between keyboards. They're all there in portrait in one half screen. The operation of the software is as expected from Mocha, whose pc software we've used before. It just works seamlessly. £21 is a lot for an iPad app, but this is specialised and what it allows you to do would be far more expensive by any other means. Good value, functional, and pleasant to use. The lite version is ok to get the idea of how it works, but it is no substitute for the real thing. Thoroughly recommend the full version..Version: 1.9

Excellent App - almostPerfect now with an integrated keyboard with alpha, numerical and function keys shown at once. However, a bug in the Field + and Field - code causes memory overwrite and crashes the app only in iOS 4.2 and up, which is a shame for an otherwise great AS/400 emulator.Version: 0

Basically works. Has some issuesIt works fine most of the time for basic emulation. However heavy users will be frustrated with it on mac or other devices. Does not work with system 36 help screens. Keyboard buffer doesn't work if you type before the screen appears. Keyboard mapping way to limited. Roll keys with two finger slide is so useless. I use it to get me out of a jam and that's about it.Version: 2.5

Full keyboard on landscape mode?Can you show full keyboard (with function and numeric keys) on landscape mode? It only shows on portrait..Version: 2.0

Must have for admins!This is a must have for System i admins. Has saved me many times on the road or out on the town to answer fix a problem on the go. No need to pull out a laptop and find wifi. On AT&T you can talk to a user while shopping for groceries and type at the same on 3G:) .. (of course that is painful on a 3.5" screen... But beats going home) It doesn't have VPN options, so for 3G use you need a connection facing the Internet. (security gurus don't like that) It is Very nice on iPad with the BT keyboard... I have a coworker that uses it a lot..Version: 1.9

No Bluetooth Keyboard SupportThis app works great with the Ipad. However, it does not support the use of a bluetooth keyboard which makes it much harder to use. If it had that support it would be five stars..Version: 0

Nice, but doesn’t work with Apple Magic KeyboardI have used this app on my iPhone before, but it does not respond to physical keyboard input..Version: 4.5

Mocha TN5250This is a great App! I use it everyday to log in remotely wherever I am to work! Can't imagine being without it !.Version: 2.4

Works the iSeries like a Pro!This app works just as described. From the 24 function keys to macros, everything is there, page up & down you name it. This is the best App for AS/400!.Version: 2.9

Great !!Really smooth it's great..Version: 2.5

Happy userI am a 20 year user of as400 system and I love this app! I no longer have to carry my laptop into meetings "just in case" I need to look up information from the as400 system at the office. The 30$ is worth it's weight, literally. I gave it four stars because I do not like that it returns to login screen before I sign off. Still very satisfied with it overall..Version: 0

AwesomeThis is an unbelievably good app. I use it to connect to multiple AS/400s using the VPN tool included with the iPhone. My laptop is seldom used when traveling..Version: 0

The greatest app ever!This app does everything it says. I seamlessly connected in a matter of seconds. It is well thought out and easy to navigate within..Version: 0

Groovy gravyI hesitated on iPhone 2.0 until I saw this app. Very happy now!.Version: 0

Great app if you need to emulate a 5250 terminalWe use it to access an as/400.Version: 2.7

Only missing one thing!I was so hesitant to spend $30 on this app, price point is kind of high I Feel. Paid version does everything I need except pasting from the clipboard. Other than not being able to paste from clipboard, the app is fully functional and I am going to recommend the app for my co-workers. Volume licenses would be great, if they can do that with apps..Version: 1.7

WonderfulThis app works great, especially since they've added the additional keyboard layout on iPad. Every key you need on a single screen !.Version: 0

Works ver wellThis app works very well. You pretty much have to pay the $30 bucks for the full version. The lite version has very limited keyboard use and will drive you nuts with keyboard switching. Even with the full version, using the onscreen keyboard will drive you nuts in landscape mode. Use portrait and you get all the keys on the screen at the same time, then if you want to see 132 characters in a report, turn it to landscape. For fun, I tried a Logitech MX 5000 Bluetooth keyboard with it, and that makes the app almost as good as a regular pc access to the AS400, except I could not get the function keys on the physical keyboard to work. So I used the onscreen fx key board and the fx hotspots in landscape mode along with the physical keyboard, and that is workable. For the most part, use this app in the portrait mode with the onscreen keyboard when you need something to carry around the office. In your own office, use your pc terminal. Ideas for improvement. Let the user define keys as you can via a pc connection on Client Access, or give the user more buttons on the screen that can be defined by the user. Overall, an excellent app..Version: 2.2

Great app!Just needs the ability to connect 5250 session as a remote console..Version: 1.5

5250 emulationI purchased this application already having seen it in action on a few mobile phones. The iPad version is naturally a much better experience with the additional real estate afforded it on the iPad display. However I don't think much effort was put into utilizing the iPad to it's fullest potential. The limited wireless keyboard support is overstated as the lack of fn keys and other 5250 highly used keys make nit useless to me and reminds me of the lite version of the app. I also had a devil of a time keeping the keyboard connection alive while on VPN. Bluetooth keyboard performs flawlessly in all other apps. The other knock I would express is no fully functional keyboard in landscape mode. I am constantly switching between the qwerty, fn, navigational, and numpad keyboards. All of these keyboards can be made active in portrait mode but session display is too small to be used on long term basis. You can zoom the session while in portrait which is somewhat of a help but I would much prefer qwerty, fn, and navigational keys all be available in landscape mode. All in all though the app is useful, stable, and makes mobile support so much nicer than toting around my brick of a laptop, Oh and one more thing....no multitask support. Session drops when exiting app. This function wasn't available when app was released so hoping for an update that does. Still a four star app if only because at least someone remembered us dinosaurs on the iSeries. The platform with uptime stats that cannot be surpassed IMHO..Version: 1.5

Does the jobSaves me turning on my PC.Version: 2.5

BuyerJust got it, so far pretty awesome! Only reason I didn't give it a 5 star is because I'm learning how to navigate the program!.Version: 2.2

Director of Information SystemsIf you need 5250, this is the app to have !.Version: 2.8

Multitasking supportPlease add multitasking support and Bluetooth keyboard support please. Other than that it's 5 star..Version: 0

Great if you're an iSeries userI'm no computer guru, but my employer has a lot of "back office" systems (Accounting, HR systems, etc.) on the iSeries and from the little bit of messing around I've done on this on the last few hours, this MochaSoft app does everything it's advertised to do. I'd give it 5 stars if it didn't put me back at the login screen each time I went to the home screen or to other apps. For those of you who are trashing this app even though they have no idea what it is or what it's functionality is, why? This app is great for a niche market of iSeries users who want to access the system remotely. If you don't use it or know what it is, save your keyboard strokes and don't review it. This seems like a common problem in the App Store. Why doesn't Apple prevent users from reviewing apps they haven't actually downloaded?.Version: 0

I ❤ it this app & I don't say that easilyConnect with the standard VPN, launch TN5250, & you are set! No more scrambling for or having to carry my laptop all the time, running to the office when there's an issue, I can do everything directly from your iPad!! Couldn't live without it!.Version: 2.1

This is great!This makes life so much easier I can work amytime anywhere.Version: 0

TN5250I have been checking out the LIte version for for a few weeks now and I must say I was impressed. There were only limitations in functions, but it worked very well. Today I bought the full version and WOW ! There are no functions I can not do. I suggest all try the Lite version 1st, however the full version is well worth the bucks. With the lite version I had questions. MochaSoft E-mail Support was very quick and helpful in their response. I was very impressed with that type of customer service. If you use an AS400 system you need this APP ! So Get It ! golfman2k3.Version: 0

Great appBeen using for years. Great for quick admin work when away from laptop. Needs a little work on new iPhones with notch..Version: 4.1
