Very Nifty!
Exactly what I expected, no more no less. Very painless installation and a very helpful personal assistant.X-Plane User
Works Well With XP10 For Me
I have had no failures or bugs with the default planes with XP10. It's nice to be able to see the map while flying. The AP functions have been flawless. I don't use the flight control portion of the app so I can't comment on that.
The only problem I've had is with pay ware planes like Jardesign A320. This app is not comparable with that and really screws up the A320 managed flight modules. This app is not really designed for that anyway, so I am not faulting it for that.fleahead
Awesome... But there is more to be done.
Please add the following
-USA VFR Map overlay
-Ability to enter waypoints/airports

Sim Pilot
Am using for flight simulator only (don't have a real plane).
I got this app for use with X-Plane my Mac Book Pro and big monitor. It is awesome!
Use the forward view with HUD on the big screen and run iPad synced to X-Plane. Works great. Very easy to install and intuitive to work autopilot and refer to map without having to mouse around the cockpit or leave the flight to see the map all from the iPad. Really makes setting autopilot and radios easy!
I fly the 787 a lot, which I love, but the flight deck requires a lot of jumping around normally to set things… the X-Mapper Pro touch screen on the iPad (sometimes use iPhone too) is sooo easy. Took simming to a new level.
Suggest using in conjunction with AirTrack app for the EFIS, then using your screen for forward full view, as you can then have your map and auto pilot controls on one iPad (or iPhone) using X-Mapper and the HSI/Instruments and radar etc on another using Flight Track. Great comboTex Aussie
It works well but needs bug fixes
The orange flight path sometimes gets buggy and doesn't show properly. I believe it's simple to fix, and it has been a long time since this is happening and a see no updates on the app. Hope it gets worked through.Riquelaboissiere
Not mad but disappointed
I bought this app after bring very satisfied with the demo version of it. Very disappointingly, the avionics didn't work and neither did the throttle, or "flight yoke."
Maybe it'll work on your device, but I can tell you now that you should consider the device you're using. Maybe the higher end, best apple devices will work, but my iPod wont work. Just something to think about. I bought this with an iTunes gift card from some website so the consequence isn't as bad, but it might be a worse feeling for another buyer. The only thing guaranteed, is a little less lag.
The thing is Laminar Research are finally back, working on their mobile apps so keep updated I guess, and maybe this app will be as great as described...Christopher Salvador

Outstanding. This fills a critical flaw in X-Plane. Worth 10 times the price. X-Plane should just incorporate this into their program.Gizmo11
Excellent addition to X-Plane
Love this addition to X-Plane, particularly for the setting of the avionics... autopilot, tuning radio frequencies, etc. The tracking on the map is adequate for simple orientation. I use this app in conjunction with Foreflight.
This app really helps make up for the shortcomings in the current aircraft (pay ware and freeware) available for X-Plane and how annoying it can be to tune radios with the thoroughly ridiculous stock Garmin 430 and operate the auto pilot.
Well done.Jackoat
A waste of money, buggy at best.
Intermittent functioning of this app was exasperating. Never really got it to work properly. Disappearing maps and broken connections made this app way to good to be true. Dumped it for the amazing FSWidget iGMapHD which, though expensive, blows X-Mapper out of the water…er…sky.breadwild
Excellent App
Truly nice! I tried the free app first and it worked so well I bought the Pro right away. Everything works well including the path. The only comment I'd like to make is when you use the satellite map its hard to see the plane, perhaps a change of color in the prefs would do it. I've looking for something like that for years, thanks for bringing this out and for a excellent price!alzyg
