I have been using an EM Touch for a few years now and really liked the way I could pop the unit into my iPhone, then using headphones to monitor bats with the detector in my shirt pocket. Walked transects were easier as I could keep my hands free to scribble notes as I walked. Emergence survey use was good, I could concentrate on where bats emerged from without the need to 'trigger' recordings. I should say now that I have seen surveyors supposedly recording emerging bats but have their face 'glued' to the screen of the device being used, how they manage to say where the bat came from is beyond me, maybe they have special powers!
Anyway, back to the EM Touch. The old unit had the lightning connector offset, allowing the user access to the headphone socket, on the new EM the lightning connector is central, effectively blocking the socket!
Okay, I thought, I will use Bluetooth and connect headphones this way, worked with the original EM Touch but no the new software doesn't support this. Contact with Wildlife Accoustics support and I find they know of the problem but it won't be sorted for at least a couple of months.
Unit now, it sits on my desk waiting for the software update as I use the old model for my surveys.......maybe be able to use it next season or it will be superseded by a new model and get confined to my collection of detectors.
