Managed 25nms in all directions from ground level albeit at 750' amsl in the Chilterns from my garden.

Will it be possible, at some stage in the future, to incorporate the facility to enter the ICAO identifier in the Android version of PilotAware Chris?

I'll be tootling in an area between Cheddington (Halton) - Daventry - Westcott tomorrow (Sept 13th) between 1100 and 1400 subject to weather.

Anyone else in my neck of the woods around during those times?

Thanks Chris and I very much suspect I was being a bit thick by not confirming I was correctly connected.

I am now able to use PilotAware with my:
                                                            1/ iPhone 6
                                                            2/ iPad Air + Garmin Glo
                                                            3/ Nexus 7

RESULT!!

Am flying out of my Cheddington base (2 miles from Halton) late morning tomorrow and will look out for others as have only picked up ADS-B traffic thus far.

Thanks to Lee and all of you Aviatechnogeeks  for making this a reality.

As aye

Yep that is what I have Chris.

Just need to confirm the next step as I am getting the message 'Failed to establish a connection with the Butterfly Connect unit.

Wondering if I am doing something wrong or missing out a step?

Any chance of a 'step by step' guide to get up and running for a 'non-geek' Eejit Chris?
Have installed your app on my Nexus 7.

Or is it best to stand back and allow settling in time with the experts?

Top effort nevertheless!!

I like the sound of that Tim. I was concerned about a plethora of cables curled across the instrument panel area.
