## What is 737 Handbook?

The 737 Handbook is an interactive technical guide for pilots which provides a quick reference for sim or interview preparation from initial type rating to command upgrade. The app features interactive schematics, photos and videos with unique content.

Should you require quick reference you can go through the main text in the chapter.

### 3/5 — I can’t do the memory items

*2026-04-01*

It used to be good

**Developer response:** Hi and thank you for your feedback! Could you please contact us at ultimate@737handbook.com and we will investigate why the memory items simulations don’t work on your device.

Cheers,

Petr

### 1/5 — 垃圾

*2026-01-17*

只能看图片，不能起飞

**Developer response:** Hi,

The 737 Handbook is educational tool for professional pilots, not flight simulator. It is clearly stated everywhere on the AppStore.

- Petr

### 3/5 — Ok

*2026-01-16*

Interactive components could be better. Very sensitive to touch, and some not that intuitive.

Was expecting much better FMC emulation (which is primarily what I purchased for).

Value found more in the technical writeup and videos.

Opinion is the app expensive for what it is.

Either pay more for a better app, or don’t pay at all.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback! And I am sorry that you only found 3 star value in The 737 Handbook. 

Regarding the interactives and simulations, I recommend viewing them on iPad for which they were designed for.

### 5/5 — MD

*2025-11-06*

Very nicely set up.

**Developer response:** Thank you!

- Petr

### 1/5 — Good but needs to work at all times

*2025-07-16*

App doesn’t work when you aren’t connect online. Ridiculous. Makes it essentially useless.

**Developer response:** Hello,

The 737 Handbook is available offline. If you are using it in flight deck, please make sure that you are NOT connected to onboard wifi network. You can test the offline functionality by switching your device to airplane mode and launching Handbook.

When on wifi or on poor cellular connection, Handbook tries to connect to the server to fetch updates. Some onboard wifi networks will block the connection. 

If you still have issues, please send me an email to ultimate@737handbook.com

### 5/5 — Great app

**Developer response:** Thank you very much Johnny! I am glad that you like the app:)

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-06-06, version 2.2.0*

Play the game more!!!

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-04-24*

Very good and helpful app

### 1/5 — Stuck at 56%

*2025-03-15*

Installed and deleted several times and always when I opened the app it gets stuck at 56% says I have a slow connection. I don’t, deleted and moved on to another App.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for your feedback! If the app gets stuck at 56%, it cannot connect to our servers. This is usually because of the VPN or firewall settings on the Wifi. If you try different internet access point, it should work. 

You can always contact me at ultimate@737handbook.com and I will be able to assist you.

### 5/5 — Indispensable

*2024-12-12*

Un condensé. Très clair. Tout ce qu’il faut savoir.
