The best

I tried many other similar apps. Simply this one is just the best. Is there a copy for android?

👍👍👍

Excellent app.
So helpful in the use of it as a Purser for a major airline

Helps in all flight situations

Have been using it from the beginning of the App, an haven’t found any other App that do the job done any easier.
Easy interface and all the rest scenarios you can think up.
Only thing I can think of that would make my life a little easier- would be to be able to distribute the result scheme to my crew via air drop !! Now I take a screenshot and air drop 😉 so thanks a lot for a great App.

THE BEST

This is THE BEST Crew Rest app around. I’ve tried several of them when this one needed an update. The others were not helpful at all. I deleted them all and went back to figuring out the breaks with pen and paper. I finally wrote the developer and BEGGED for an update. Thank you Mr. Ostrowsky for hearing my plea. Please don’t ever stop the updates of this extremely useful app.

App keeps crashing

I’m writing this as of August, 2019. I recently got an iPhone X and I LOVE using this app to figure out breaks for my crews but it keeps crashing on both my iPhone and iPad. Please help!
