Pretty useless.
Interactive was misleading in description
Not interactive.
The description says that this is an interactive FMC. And for the cost of $20 I thought it would be. Unfortunately all entries are fixed. Not worth the $20 do not buy.

Sorry to hear this. I’ve tried to make it clear about the functionality in the App Store description.
Crashes
App crashing IOS 16.4.1(a). Tried deleting and reinstalling. Doesn’t work.

Thank you for the feedback. This bug is fixed in the latest update.
Not fully functional
This is pricy and while it has some basic functions, it doesn’t really let you work through and practice actually putting inputs into it which is a big part of gaining familiarity. This lack of interactivity makes this quite basic and not worth the high price, and the same learning could really be gained from working through an actual manual with pictures. The description is misleading suggesting you can learn as you would on an iPhone by being hands on.
The cruise and other parts are extremely limited and you cannot even see certain pages at all.
It is only clear at the bottom of the description that it is not a simulator at all but the upper descriptions of being hand on, allowing you to work through actually misleads just how non interactive this is in my opinion. I did not scroll down to read the full disclaimer on it as the initial part and cost suggested to me it would be suitable.

Useless with no functionality
I didn’t learn to use my phone looking at images either. Very misleading
Worth it for First Timers
Really helpful for learning the FMC if you’re new to Boeing. It’s got enough realism to practice finding information on different pages, and running through the CDU Preflight. But don’t expect to load any actual data - it doesn’t do that. It’s a descriptive tool not a fully interactive one, but highly useful on a type rating for getting familiar with the FMC.

Not worth the 5 cents!
I was in a rush and didn’t bother to read the reviews. If you are looking for a functional FMC simulator this isn’t it. I was looking for something to practice programming the FMC and thought this would work but this is not the case at all. A whole lot of fluff for more than it’s worth. Don’t waste your money on it. Apple should remove this or force the price to a more reasonable price like free.

No!!!
Paid for this and received a barely functional FMC, resembles about 10% functionality with most options and selections non active.
Although there could be legal and safety reasons for this if want avoiding negative training, avoid this.
A better description of the the APP would have been less misleading before paying a rather exorbitant price for what’s basically a bunch of screen shots.

Pricey for what it does.
Cannot make any entries or changes to the FMC as described in the info section. A bit pricey just for that feature alone. Also, climbed, cruise, descent phases do not work properly.
Waste of money
This developer calls this application "interactive" however there is nothing interactive about it. All of the potential entries you could possibly make on the FMC are fixed, there is no way for a pilot to make any data entry on any page.
All you can do is look at various FMC pages. What is the value of that?
Please do not spend $19 bucks on this app - its worthless.
I want my money back.
And yes, I am a 787 Captain.
Terrible app, bordering on ripoff !

I'm sorry to hear you didn't like the app! The app description makes it quite clear that it does not have any FMC functionality, but is rather a reference manual for new 787 pilots to use instead of looking up things in the FCOM. Please send a message to the support email address so we can look into a refund.
