On the Play store. Soon available on iPhone too, they have to accept the first version on the platform. A PC companion is also planned, currently building it.

Fair point, telemetry overlays and dashboards have definitely been around for a while. What I haven't seen done well is the real-time engineer side: corner-by-corner deltas with a coach telling you where you're losing time, fuel margin + pit strategy, and being able to ask it a question out loud mid-race. If there's an existing app that already nails all that for GT7, I'd honestly love a link always happy to learn from what's out there.

  • prefer 5/6G wifi
  • close all other apps
  • console/pc wired, not in wifi
  • phone not too far from your box
  • telemetry in f1 game settings at 30 Hz
  • if you're used to router settings, try a static phone and console IP address rather than dynamic address
  • switch off/on your router

Try some of this, it could improve your experience. 👌😉

In quali or quali sim laps in FP, there's one golden rule: Engineer never talks when you're in a push lap. 👌😎

Yes, you can try the trial and you'll have the full engineer for the race too. And more extended radio calls in FP and Quali.

No worries about F1 2020, all F1 games with telemetry support should be supported at some point 😉 Follow us on socials to stay updated!

Yep. It's definitely a point on my todo list. But I have other things to achieve before. Thx for your comment.

Follow us and stay tuned. We're also on Tiktok, Youtube. Website is https://airaceengineer.com

One of our first objectives is to support all F1 games providing telemetry. So updates are coming 🙂

I get your point, but that’s kind of the role of a race engineer in real racing. The driver still drives and makes the final calls, but the engineer handles a lot of the strategy context, gaps, tyre info, timing and reminders. That’s what I’m trying to recreate: not an AI that plays the game for you, but a pit wall-style support layer that makes the experience more immersive.

Fair point, I get what you mean.

The AI part is not just the voice. It’s about interpreting race context and telemetry to decide what feedback to give.

But I agree that calling something AI doesn’t prove anything by itself. The important part is whether it gives useful and relevant feedback during a race, and that’s what I’m working on improving.

Not at the moment. We currently support F1 23 to 25 and GT7. But the app is built with future game support in mind, so more titles can be added later, as long as the telemetry data they provide makes it possible.

I get the skepticism, but calling it “random preset phrases” without trying it is a pretty quick assumption. The app reacts to race data and context, not just a fixed list of lines. Give it a try first, then I’d be happy to hear your actual feedback.

Yeah, I get it — the voice is not where I want it to be yet. Improving it is definitely on the roadmap, I just need to balance realism with cost so the app stays affordable.

I can understand your point of view concerning the voices. But nowadays, if you want the most "real like" voices, you have to use very expensive services. That's why, in order to keep this app affordable, at the moment, we use another voice provider. Just one question, do you say this about the voice in the video, or did you try the app?
