Lénárd Pásztor, in my case (iPhone X), I can't see any profiles(neither mine or community), titlebar lags and clashes with status bar.
To everyone who is interested, I'm creating a native sbrick app for iOS. ATM It has basic profile designer integrated, multiple profiles, support for multiple Sbricks per profile and per control, can connect to SBricks and obviously control them. Tho there is no support for Sbrick plus sensors yet.
If you are interested in helping shape iOS app to replace official buggy app, drop me a line :)
Re: Mark Singleton posting September 23, 2018: I too have an iPhone X, and like you, I cannot get my private design profiles to appear on my iPhone X or on my iPad (Gen. 4), for that matter. The public profiles seem to come and go. Fortunately, I kept my old iPhone 5 to use without a SIM card, via wi-fi. I am able to get my profile to load into an SBrick creation on the iPhone 5 to operate my Lego model successfully. However, the highest version of the SBrick app that the iPhone 5 will accept is version 11, whereas both my iPad and iPhone X have version 14 of the SBrick app. This leads me to believe that the problem lies with version 14 of the SBrick app, effectively rendering the SBrick app useless on those devices.
I obtained my iPhone X in December 2017, and have never been able to succesfully download private design profiles onto it. For the last 9 months(!) I have been wrestling with this problem on and off, but I always thought I was doing something wrong until I saw Mark's post. I have a Lego train model with 40 electrified switches in it. The SBrick is ideally suited to manage four switches at a time. But since I have been unable to run the SBrick app successfilly on the iPhone X, I have made no further SBrick purchases.
Have just changed my phone from an iPhone 6 Plus to an iPhone XS, and as other people have reported with the X version, it is not possible to load your creation profiles into the app. Both your own private profiles, and the public profiles are empty.
As the iPhone X itself has been out for a year now, why have the developers not fixed this issue, including support for the notch on the X.
It cannot be an iOS issue as the app still works fine on my 6 Plus with iOS 12, but at some point I will be selling that phone.
I have the same problem. iPad mini with IOS 11.3 (latest version). Sbrick app not scaling properly with the result that a part of the screen (with buttons on it) is not vissible wich makes the app (and my sBricks) compeletely useless!
Please give us an update about this problem and when we can expect a sollution.

Hi Vengit,

Hi Vengit,
Finally decided to purchase 2 Sbricks instead of Buwizz. Main reasons; the broader community indicates that Sbrick has a better software user interface with more features.
However:
I am not able to pair with the Sbricks using an iPhone (latest IOS). Actually, the Sbrick app crashes as it tries to connect to the Sbrick (hw level 5, firmware 1). It does this all the time, regardless hard or soft reboots of the iPhone. As well it is impossible to upgrade the firmware of the Sbrick in this case either.
How to proceed? Btw: I have to admit that it is really disappointing to buy Sbricks and need to replace them again for the tradiontal (reliable) PF IR receivers. :-(
I guess you are aware of the above; can you give an indication when a new update of the Sbrick app can be expected? Thanks in advance.
Hi There,
using SBrick v4.4 Update 11 on iPhone X, iOS 11.2.2.
when trying to connect/configure my "old" sBricks (very old firmware), the application crashes. sBricks are available in the list but selecting any of them will crash the App after very few seconds. So it is not possible for me to give you the firmware version.
Any idea ?
Cheers

With my Steelseries Nimbus MFI-Gamepad the APP also didn't recognize the L1, L2, A, B, X and Y. I'm looking forward to this being fixed.
Hey Vengit, any progress on getting the buttons to work?
Also:
We have been enjoying controlling our Lego Battle Bots with SBRICK. Team battles are really fun. I can control two bots with my iPhone using a MFI gamepad for one, and the iPhone for the other. Before I buy a second gamepad to control three bots, has anyone used multiple gamepads with the iPhone SBRICK app?
Hi again everyone,
After talking with Tamas via email over me problem with the Sbrick app keep crashing I tried using the app on my partners iPad Pro and it worked fine. So this lead me to purchasing a new iPad for myself and now I'm happy to report my issues have now been solved. iPad is running IOS 11.2.1 with Sbrick v4.4 update 11, bricks are version 5 firmware 22.
Thank you
Dave

Hello, it is me again.
I have tested several version of SBrick App. I tested the latest one 4.4.7, the first version with gamepad support 4.4.2 and the latest version 4.2.3 without gamepad support. SBrick FW is 20.
I used legal ways to downgrade SBrick App using iTunes and Charles.
The result if following: version 4.2.3 is working flawless and without crashes. Perfect. But it doesn't support gamepad which I really need to use. I tested it for 10+ minutes several times and it didn't crash.
Version 4.4.2 and 4.4.7 are unstable and they crash whenever they want to. May be 15 seconds, may be 2 minutes after starting the profile, but the result is the same, the App crashes.
So, something went wrong with App version 4.4.2.
I remind, I am using iPhone 5 with iOS 10.3.3.
I really hope that this will help.
Do you need some more test? I will help gladly with anything I can.
Dear Galim!
We are working on the new version what hopefully will fix your crash problems too.
Does the app crashes on your device only when a profile runs?
Thanks, Tamas
Hello.
I was really expecting that new version (came out 22nd of December) will solve the crashing problem, but the problem wasn't fixed.
I can't even use my iPhone to control SBricks without gamepad. For more than two month I had to borrow Android devices from my friends or use original IR-receivers.
I use the latest App version and latest SBrick firmware.
Hello there,
This is my first post on here and I need some help or advice.
I think my SBrick app is not working properly as I have recently updated the firmware on the bricks to version 22 and the hardware is V5.The app is version 4.4 update 11. The app will run for a few seconds and then crash and disconnect stopping the model.
I'm running it on an older iPad mini using IOS 9.3.5. I cannot update the OS any more but I have done a hard reset on it, reinstalled the app several times but still have the same problem of the app crashing. Initially I thought the bluetooth was the problem but after several days of trying I need some help/advice.
My model has two SBricks installed one to run the crawler tacks (two channels) and a second Brick to run the winches derrick and slewing functions. It is a Manitowoc 4100 crawler crane.
Is there anything I can do to help cure this problem. HELP!!!
I'm kinda pulling my hair out this (what little I have LOL) as it worked fine until the last update.
Thank you in advance for you help.
Dave
I want to use an old iPhone 4 with iOS 7.1.2 (latest).
Downloaded the app, a previous version since current requires minimum iOS 8.
However, when starting the app, the app is stuck at 'Please enable the bluetooth' on the startup screen.
Tried the iPhone with another bluetooth device to test bluetooth and that works.
Disabled/enabled the bluetooth several times, restarted the iPhone, reinstalled the app. Nothing gets me past the startup screen.
Any ideas?
Would be great if this can be solved so the kids can use these old devices to play with.
