### 1/5 — Not Working

*2026-01-29*

Installation finished and app crashed instantly. Not Working

### 1/5 — Just crashes…

*2025-02-03*

Unfortunately, this app has to get no stars if I could, since it doesn’t work. You install it, it gives you an intro, then installs more data, says complete, and then crashes. System updates, reboots, app reinstalls do not prevent it from crashing.  If they fix it I will update the review. Until then, stay away!

### 3/5 — Decent content, but major bug..

*2024-09-10*

This app has a lot of good words that aviators will need to know the meaning of. It has a helpful phonetic alphabet and a list with basic terms. The major bug however, comes when you try to use the search bar. In my experience using the app, I would use the search bar, and as soon as I pressed a key on my keyboard, the app would completely crash. Note that this was not a one time occurrence either.. As a tip to the devs PLEASE FIX THIS. Me along with many others would benefit from being able to use the search tool you have so cleverly provided, yet that is unusable because of a (hopefully) easy to fix bug. Anyways, thats it and hope this helps you know if you should dedicate 3 minutes of precious time to downloading this app.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2024-09-04*

Doesn’t open up anymore.

### 4/5 — Crashing on ios

*2024-07-09, version 2.0*

It's a good app but now for some reason it keeps crashing when I try to open it :(

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2024-07-04*

Although the design is fine, the search does not work in my 14 pro, essentially making the app unusable. The list of terms are clickable and open fine, but scrolling down the terms of a dictionary is a time waste and I just google the word.

### 2/5 — Its broken

*2024-06-03, version 2.0*

Every time i search the app just crashed

### 5/5 — Nice

*2024-05-04*

Great for people getting into aviation!

### 5/5 — Finally something fantastic

*2021-09-02*

### 5/5 — AMAZING APP I FINALLY FOUND

*2020-11-02*
