hi- I installed one last season (june 2020). Works perfectly on a standard iPad which I have mounted on a simple iPad stand on the bridge. Took a bit of time to learn how to read the indicators.

Be sure you have a good power (12v) connection.

Glad it worked out for you. I opted to let the next owner install radar.
