SimBox Client

The SimBox client app for smartphones, tablets, and web is a ready-to-use interface with buttons and windows that match the layout of real-life buttons and windows on an aircraft. It allows users to control the aircraft's autopilot, lights, radios, and transponder from a single app.

Multiple SimBox client apps can be connected to a single SimBox Control app, allowing users to have different panels for different functions on different devices, such as a lights panel on a tablet, an autopilot panel on a smartphone, and a radios panel in a web browser.
