Elite Dangerous TradePad Pro for Android
Superb accessory. Marking 'avoid' systems would be a bonus. Still, a 5 star recommendation.
the ED universe is huge. there's no way of getting up-to-date information at all times. what this app provides is a great reference of commodities etc available from whereever. the accuracy of information is not all that important considering how things can change in the dynamic ED universe. as long as there's a level of reliability of that said information, then it works for me. I'm glad I have this app. as someone already stated - this should have been a menu item within the ED cockpit. it is that essential.
Would rate of five star if it kept prices up to date. Updating every 24 hours is not very good for keeping prices constant because prices change every hour. And would like a feature that allowed route plotting past a thousand light-years for those long-range passenger missions.
Would give five but seems module search is highly inaccurate for higher level modules (fsd, power plant, shield generators ). Searched several times for class 8 but when arrive modules are not available particularly for A type modules.
Great just would like a logbook facility so i can keep a sort of timeline Captains Log and it would get a 5*
A must have for all traders and freighter captains!
Amazingly quick and responsive answers and support. So glad I paid for the app. Thank you guys
Trading areas work great. Ship search and modules don't function
Fab app does exactly what you need
Totally glad I bought the Pro version. Granted I got a $10 google play card free from my local gas station but still. Use with the xbox one version has been useful for my group.
Very very useful.
This app is a must have for ED players. I'd pay 5x the price if I needed to. This app really is a game changer especially for new players needing help with locating materials or ships. Lately it's been giving me trouble locating some of the newer ship modules introduced in the latest game updates. This is likely an issue with the server side data aggregation and less of an issue with the app, however I was compelled to remove a star out of my continued frustration.
I would have liked to give this 5 stars and probably would have before the app update that coincided with the 2.2 update of Elite. Since then it either can't find routes it previously found under 2.1, or gives prices massively under valued hence me losing credits and not gaining them. If these glitches are sorted then it would be brilliant. I'm sticking to the web based database, that's still working. P. S. Since the app has upgraded it now deserves 5 stars. Brilliant *****.
Must have if you're going to trade. Love this cos I can check when at work :p
Previous version used to show exact pinpoint of commodity, new on is broken n won't show up. Sad
Overall the app is very well done. It is not updating all prices properly as I have prices showing last updated 3 and 4 days ago. Has caused a few problems with my trade routes being undervalued.
Honest review This is a really nice app. You clearly put a lot of work into it. I gave the free version a quick test drive and found it to be useful and beautiful. The touch interface works very well, and adds to the immersion into the virtual world. I want to stand my tablet up next to my monitors to make my desk feel even more like a cockpit. The reason I probably won't use it much is that it's not nearly as powerful as inara and eddb. For example, the requirement of origins for loops, inability to sort commodity traders by sell/buy price (by arbitrary columns, really), restricting the module search to only one module. I'll give it a more in-depth test drive later, but those immediately stood out to me. But, I'm seriously impressed, and very interested in how this app develops, so I bought the pro version. I'm looking forward to using it where I can. It really does add to the immersion. Kudos, also, on the caching. Nice engineering there. I have some questions about data collection. Are you calling out to community APIs? Are you scraping yourself? Do you plan to share data you collect with the community outside of the app?
The missing menus from ED. Well built app and regular updates, the Google of materials commodities, modules etc in Elite! 5/5
Been racking my brain trying to find new content. Passenger bays and fighter bay and with no luck at all. First thing I type, was first class an nice drop down list to pick. Before I could say; "well dam" ,there was list of stations. Must have for any smuggler or trader's
Was having trouble, turned out to be some kind of back-end problem. I was grumpy, but the developer responded with good humor and a solution!
Fails every time I try to backup the database. I'm afraid to use the app since the prompt said to update database first. Help!
This is on my elite list of tools for this game, great work keep it up!
I love Elite Dangerous and this app is the perfect companion app to have along for the ride! I use it every time I play and it has helped me make millions, but also enjoy the game and it's complexities more. I recently have had a bug hinder using this app but I contacted them and Steve (the legend) helped massively, and an update and fix had it back up and running on my phone the very next day! I wouldn't leave the dock without it now :-)
Besides a few server issues and minor things this app is great for having up to date system and trade info. I just wish it had a better landscape layout for my tablet.
Totally worth it. I don't even know how I played ED without this app for so long.
Excellent addition to any CMDR flight deck
Great app
Decided to give this app another go because it was once my favourite and still have not found a replacement. I was greeted by a splash screen informing all changes were saved instantly locally (which was my biggest complaint), but after editing prices they're were back to the un-updated state right away. Perhaps they are not that instant... Also, I notices some commodities are missing from the list and couldn't find a way to add them manually (E.g. Water in Kadroa - Macan Station)
The app is easy to navigate, and the commodity information is up-to-date. Very useful! Extra points for matching the in-game visual theme.
Excellent companion app! Thank you.
I'm curious where it gets the station price updates from though to keep them current. Is it all user input through the app (which is tedious) or does it use the online database EDDN that can be auto updated via EDMC? Edit: OK, is there any way to increase the frequency at which it updates against EDDN? I entered a route I was running yesterday (constantly updating via EDMC) and Trade pad only says those stations were updated four days ago. I like the tool, I really just want more current data.
Just needs more people to help update commodity prices
Highly recommend. Updates are excellent. Would love it if it could suggest all stations in a system once I have selected a system rather than waiting for me to type out the station name. Also seems very slow to show suggestions as I'm typing...
This app looks great, but only works for the pc version. Unfortunately for me, I have the Xbox 1 version...
I love this but now it says i need to check internet connection its fine connects everything else tried Wi-Fi and wireless network same error rebooted phone nothing worked fine till now
Does everything, amazing database. Worth the few bucks. o7
Edit: I apologize. Not in the right mood at time of initial review. This is a great app and has come a long way since I first used it almost a year ago. Thank you, Phantomapps, for creating this.
Price need to updated more often. I've been getting screwed lately. I do like this apo though. MOST of the time the prices have been spot on. But like I said, lately I've been getting screwed.
Worked on when first downloaded. Now updated it can never find a route. Waste of time now!

Loving the app so far, I would a appreciate a station swap for the Calculate Route function, but other than that, it's been great. Thanks for making it and that latest patch with the 1hr updates is excellent.
