    I really love QRZ it’s very useful and comes in handy but I just wish they’d work on developing a better app considering it’s 2025..

    There is no app, there have some third-party apps for callsign lookup in the past but they are no longer available or supported.

    For mobile devices just use a browser.

    If you access your logbook from a mobile device, it willl prompt you to install "the app". I did and it works fairly well. My only complaints are 1) It doesn't have a field to lookup a call, and 2) it suffers from that annoying behavior of confirming to reload the page and attempting to add a duplicate in some cases.

    I'm not sure if the "install the app" option should be deprecated or not, but it would seem there is indeed an app for mobile devices.

    Android device?

    QRZ has (used to have?) an Android app but I’ve never seen this prompt on an iOS device.

    Yes, I'm on the app now, and the ads just continously load making the logbook page unusable

    The QRZ app is no longer supported. It hasn't been for years.

    It has not been available to install for Google or iPhone for a very long time and is not longer usable.

    Just delete it.

    Perhaps the web team can delete the app from your page because it still prompts users to install it

    It seems there is still a hook to the app though - perhaps that needs to be deleted. Whenever you launch the logbook within a browser (from an android phone at least) a pop-up appears asking if you'd like to install the app.
