FT8 and CAT via IPAD+DIGIRIG

Hello OM,

I’m considering simplest configuration with DIGIRIG for FT8 and CAT. Is there any IOS app to enable CAT(Computer Aided Transceiver) feature on TX-500 or FT817 via DIGIRIG? If you share your experience, I’ll appreciate it!

iOS is pretty closed up. There aren’t many ham related apps there and the certification process for any custom hardware makes it hard to enter for hobby makers. I’m not aware of anything that would offer CAT control, sorry. Sub $100 Android tablet would make a better option.
