## What is Cockpit?

CockpitCheck turns your paper checklist into a guided, always-current cockpit companion — organized exactly the way you already fly.

Made for Flight Training
Learning to fly, or teaching it? The Memory-Item Drill trains your emergency boldface items on the ground: hide the response, recall it from memory, then reveal to self-check. Every calculator shows its working: "How It's Calculated" opens the exact formula behind the result. And "Share with a Student" sends a plane's complete checklists to your student, ready to import.

Not Bolted Onto a Map
Every major EFB treats its checklist as a small tab behind maps, charts, and weather — CockpitCheck is built around nothing but the checklist itself. Guided Fly Mode and instant emergency access, built for the cockpit. Run it as your primary checklist, or keep it as an independent backup alongside the EFB you already fly with — no shared account, no shared point of failure.

Organized by Phase of Flight
Preflight, engine start, before takeoff, takeoff, enroute, and landing — every checklist lives exactly where you expect it, grouped and ordered the way your POH already teaches you to think.

Fly Mode: Guided, Step by Step
Your next checklist waits at the top of the Fleet screen, one tap on Fly away. Then a live progress ring, elapsed timer, and one-tap Check or Skip — heads up, not buried in a binder.

Live Activity, Right There
See your current step and progress on the Lock Screen or in the Dynamic Island — glance without unlocking your phone.

Cockpit Night
A true red-on-black night mode that preserves your night vision, one tap away — no digging through Settings before a night flight.

Emergency Procedures, One Tap Away
Every emergency checklist for your aircraft surfaces instantly from a single red button — no digging through tabs when seconds matter.

Hands-Free Voice Readout
Let CockpitCheck read each challenge and response aloud while you fly, in your choice of natural voice and pace — eyes on the panel, not the screen.

Start From a Template
Add a new plane and start from a generic checklist — single-engine, retractable gear, or glass cockpit — then make it your own, with an optional reference photo on any item.

Your Whole Fleet
Manage checklists for every aircraft you fly — a club rental, your own plane, or several you're checked out in — each with its own groups, checklists, and emergency procedures. Drag to put your most-flown aircraft first.

Weight & Balance, Built In
Set your aircraft's empty weight, stations, and certified CG envelope once — then load each flight and see a live, color-coded verdict plus a plotted takeoff/landing graph. Save named presets for the loads you fly most. The calculator is free; sharing or printing a full report with the envelope graph included comes with any one-time purchase.

Pilot Tools, Built In
Eleven offline tools with big, turbulence-friendly controls — a timer that rings even on silent, sunset & civil twilight for any airfield, climb/descent rate, wind correction, crosswind, fuel, time-speed-distance, density altitude & TAS, flight time, Zulu time, and unit conversion — each showing the formula behind the result. Nothing leaves your device.

Works With Your Other Apps
Export any checklist to PDF for printing, or to ForeFlight, Garmin Pilot, or Garmin G3X/GTN (.ace) format, so your existing EFB and avionics stay in sync.

Built for iPhone and iPad
A native SwiftUI app with an adaptive layout — compact on iPhone, spacious on iPad — with iCloud sync to keep your fleet current across every device.

Private by Design
No sign-up, no login. Your checklists sync through your own iCloud account, and nothing is ever uploaded to a third-party server.

One-Time Purchase
Buy CockpitCheck once, tiered by how many aircraft you fly, and own it for as long as you fly them. No subscription, ever.

Whether you fly one Skyhawk on weekends or keep a small fleet current, CockpitCheck keeps every checklist exactly where — and how — you need it.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.1 — 2026-10-20

Fly Mode, Front and Center
The Fleet screen now opens with your current plane and where you left off. One tap on Fly carries on with your next checklist and runs straight through to the last one. Every plane, every group, and every checklist has its own Fly button, and the emergency procedures are always one tap away in the top corner.

Backups Without
Duplicates Exported planes now include the aircraft photo and the photos on checklist items. Importing a plane that's already in your fleet, for example when restoring a backup, no longer adds a second copy: you choose whether to replace it or keep both.

Unit Converter: Your Conversion, Explained
"How It's Calculated" now shows the formula for the two units you picked, worked through with your own value, and stays in view while the keyboard is open. Knots to km/h now uses the exact factor of 1.852.

Easier Support
When you send feedback from Settings, you can attach a diagnostic log, for example to help track down an iCloud sync problem. It's only included if you choose to, and it reaches us only through your feedback email.

Fixes
Read-aloud now speaks even with your iPhone on silent, and stops when you leave Fly Mode. The timer alarm now works on iOS 26.0.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-10-02

Big Cockpit Controls
Wind Correction, Crosswind, and Time/Speed/Distance now use large −/+ buttons (hold to repeat) instead of small text fields, with the answer pinned in big numbers at the top of the screen — made to be used in turbulence. Tap any number to type an exact value.

A Timer That Rings on Silent
A new cockpit timer: pick a preset, fine-tune by the minute, and choose what it's for — Timer, Switch Tanks, or Fuel Check. It counts down on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and rings as a real alarm when time's up, even with your iPhone on silent. Inside the app, the whole screen flashes.

Climb / Descent Rate
Enter your current and target altitude plus the time or distance available, and get the vertical speed you need — rounded up to the next 50 ft/min, so you're never short.

Sunset & Twilight
Sunrise, sunset, and civil twilight for any airfield on any date — above all, when VFR day ends. Opens on your plane's home airport; search any other field by ICAO code, name, or town, glider and ultralight strips included. Built-in airfield directory, fully offline, no location access.

Home Airport
Check The plane editor now confirms your Home Airport entry with the airfield's name and elevation, so a typo is caught right away.

Temperature Conversion
The Unit Converter now converts between °C and °F.

### 1.2.5 — 2026-09-30

Neues Tool: Windkorrektur & Grundgeschwindigkeit
Ein Winddreieck-Rechner im Tools-Tab — wahren Kurs, wahre Fluggeschwindigkeit und Wind eingeben und Windkorrekturwinkel, wahren Steuerkurs und Grundgeschwindigkeit erhalten, mit Ortsmissweisung auch den magnetischen Steuerkurs.

Rechenweg verstehen
Jeder Rechner hat jetzt einen aufklappbaren Abschnitt „So wird gerechnet" — die genaue Formel und die verwendeten Konstanten hinter dem Ergebnis, für Flugschüler oder alle, die den Rechenweg nachvollziehen wollen, nicht nur das Ergebnis ablesen.

Druckhöhe & TAS, verbessert
Die Dichtehöhe berechnet die Druckhöhe jetzt selbst aus Platzhöhe und Höhenmesser-Einstellung, und die wahre Fluggeschwindigkeit hat eine eigene Höheneingabe, statt die Dichtehöhe zu übernehmen. Höhenmesser-Einstellung in inHg oder hPa — die bevorzugte Einheit legst du einmal in den Einstellungen fest.

Feinschliff an den Rechnern
Zeit/Geschwindigkeit/Strecke arbeitet jetzt in Stunden oder Minuten. Der Kraftstoff-Rechner kann jetzt Kilogramm und rechnet Reichweiten-Mengen korrekt zwischen Volumen und Gewicht um. Der Flugzeit-Rechner hat einen gut sichtbaren Löschen-Button.

Sicherheitshinweis
Ein kurzer, einmaliger Haftungsausschluss — auch unter Einstellungen → Über abrufbar — als Erinnerung, dass CockpitCheck das Flughandbuch (POH) und die genehmigten Verfahren unterstützt, aber nie ersetzt.

Hochformat auf dem iPhone
Auf dem iPhone bleibt die Ansicht jetzt im Hochformat; das iPad dreht weiterhin frei.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-17

Weight & Balance
A built-in W&B calculator, scoped to your own aircraft: set empty weight/arm, stations, max gross weight, and a custom CG envelope once, then load each flight and watch the plotted CG update live — takeoff and landing, connected by a line as fuel burns. Save named load presets ("Solo," "Two Pax + Bags") for one-tap reuse. The calculator itself is completely free; sharing or printing a full report with the envelope graph embedded is included with any one-time purchase. Fully synced via iCloud, and carried along in every checklist export.

Pilot Tools
A new Tools tab with seven quick offline calculators built for the cockpit: a Flight Time Calculator (add up several flight times, get the decimal-hours total for your logbook), Crosswind/Headwind, Zulu/Local Time, Fuel (100LL, Jet A, or Mogas — gallons ⇄ pounds ⇄ liters, plus an endurance calculator with its own unit picker), Time/Speed/Distance, Density Altitude & True Airspeed, and general Unit Conversion. A new Settings section lets you set your default speed and distance units (knots/km-h, nm/km) once and have every tool use them. No extra permissions, nothing leaves your device.

Memory-Item Drill
Practice your emergency boldface/memory items on the ground — hide the response, recall it from memory, then reveal to self-check. Reached from the Emergency Checklists screen; never available mid-flight.

Share With a Student
Give the export sheet a matching "Share with a Student/other Pilot" entry in the single-plane view, alongside the existing Fleet-screen action.

Reorder Your Fleet
Put your most-flown aircraft first — drag to reorder in the Fleet screen, with grip handles in List view or by dragging tiles directly in the grid view.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-10

- Cockpit Night A true red-on-black theme that preserves your night vision — one tap away on the Fleet screen and inside Fly Mode, no digging through Settings while you're strapped in.
- Live Activity See your current checklist step and progress right on the Lock Screen or in the Dynamic Island while you fly — no need to unlock your phone mid-checklist.
- Start From a Template Adding a new plane now offers a generic starting checklist — single-engine, retractable gear, or glass cockpit — instead of a blank page.
- Reference Photos Attach a photo to any checklist item, handy for switches and panels you don't see every day.
