Broken
New update broke it, crashes immediately when opening so can’t use it at all anymore. It needs to be fixed so hopefully somebody sees this.Looopyloooz

Hi, please delete and install the app again. This should fix the issue. If the app keeps crashing, send us an email at info@flyingcalmly.com. Thanks!Great app - suggested update
I really like this app - esp the map feature the allows scrolling thru time & altitude, but one question/suggestion: include the time zone, is it keyed to my time zone? Is it GMT? This info makes a big differenceBdM157
Developer Response
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. We take note of it. The time displayed on the map is your local time. Thanks for using our app!Great app
I love this app as it helps me relax before flying. Without it, i find it very difficult to fly and have severe anxiety. I hope it remains online for a long time. :)mirko1491
Good app, could be great
I think that the one thing that the developers don’t take into consideration is the route the crew might take.
When you enter your flight info, it basically gives you a forecast for a flight that’s in a straight line (which all flights never travel in) and an unknown altitude.
I’ve had this app for a while, it can be a hit or miss in my opinion, this morning I took a flight from the Dominican Republic to New York, the app showed no turbulence.
When I get on the flight, the captain comes on and warns of some turbulence over Turks and Caicos, so exactly as the captain stated, turbulence started over the Turks for about 45 minutes of non-stop chop.
So like I said before, it can be a hit or miss because I’ve been on flights where the app shows turbulence and then there isn’t any, or it shows turbulence and there is.
I can probably say that this app have an accuracy rate of about 70% or so, it kinda helps but like I said before, it needs to take other things into consideration, I know the developers are not going to get every flight plan in the world, but it would help it there was any other way of having more accuracy.Show lessG5iv3

Hi, thanks a lot for your review and comments. You are right, using the path from a great circle (the shortest flight path possible) is not always the most accurate way of predicting the actual path of the flight. At the moment, this is the best we can do. We are working on an improvement where we could show different paths for the flight based on historic data of previous flights. We keep working on the app, some updates will come soon. Best regards, Carlos.Where is the intensity rating of the turbulence
They give you a graph but the intensity rating is missing of the turbulence itself. Would be great if they could put this in.John26367
Not working
I do love this app when it works...however every time I try to search my upcoming flight it just loads forever and says not available.AG329
Wow!
I started using this app a couple months ago... and it’s pretty accurate! On my most recent flight, it predicted the turbulence location and intensity correctly. I appreciate that! 👍Chigg_
Major plus
I am not a huge fan of flying, but do it quite a bit. This App has been eerily accurate and I find it helps me to see beyond the turbulence into relaxing through the flight.
Obviously, awareness and information are a great power to have, and the App delivers.J1D2O3N4

*update below*
Was working well - I have paid for the long haul and ad removal. Now it no longer shows any information after the search, just shows a busy indicator - forever. The UI is messed up too, the colors are messed up in the calendar widget and you can’t see the dates being selected. Also the language switched to Spanish for some reason. I have tried to contact the developer via email with no response. Also have selected the support link here in the App Store but that just takes you right back to the App Store page.
Update: several days after this the developer is pushed an update and seems to have fixed these issues.Show lessAlexInSanDiego

Hi AlexInSanDiego, my apologies for not having answered your mail yet. We are very busy preparing an update fixing the problems you mention and also preparing a new version that is meant to improve the forecasting. The problems with the UI are visible only when the dark mode is on. A workaround until the update is there is to disable the dark mode from the iOS settings. The language problem only affects the search button label which in the english version appears, as you point out, in spanish. All the rest is still in english. Anyway, we are just about to release the update fixing all these annoying things. My apologies again. Best regards, Carlos.Helped me a lot!
I am terrified of flying and this app truly helped me calm down and breathe through my panic. I felt very confident using it when I needed to. The information is great and the exercise he teaches you really helped me focus and feel better.Muppethitman
