Great pilot app
One slight problem is that having it on my iPad and iPhone, when updating one the other is not automatically updated.

Hi Shitehawk1940. Thanks for your feedback. We're working hard on iCloud sync at the moment for a future release! - Matt

Pretty good
If you had an option to allow an update to preserve the expiry date automatically rather than having to scroll through to the end of the month.
I can see this works for military currency but in the civil world expiries are like MOT’s and preserve the original date plus 1 year.
****Update to clarify suggestion. An option to preserve the day and just update the year by a set amount. Think insurance, if you renew insurance you maintain the day of the month and change the year even if you renew a week early. So a slider option at currency creation so that when you select it then update you will always get the same date + 1 year. An example, when this option is selected 27MAR20 becomes 27MAR21 even when updated on 20MAR20****

Hi EmuJed, Thanks for your feedback, it's really appreciated. Would you be able to clarify exactly what it is you're suggesting, please? The app calculates your expiry date automatically based on a validity period, or you can set it manually. If you choose to set it manually then there's no way the app can reliably 'know' the reasoning behind your choice (i.e. the currency lasts to the end of that month) - so could display incorrect information if it tried to 'guess' how long it is valid for. - Matt
Almost unusable since the new update
The biggest issue I have is setting a currency completion date:
At the moment I can’t retrospectively add a completion date. If I tap on the completion date, an empty box appears. This makes the app unusable for me. Please fix it.
I also agree with a another reviewer about the icon change. The new one looks amateurish/ childish. I can live with that if you can fix the bug?
Thank you.

Hi goaly 4, Thanks for the feedback - I'll look into it immediately. I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with the app. I must admit I hadn't fully tested the new design on iPad as it was only ever intended for iPhone, although that's not an excuse. If you can spare a few minutes I'd really appreciate it if you could you drop me an email (director@mountainwave.co.uk) so I can ask some more specific questions about the problem. Point also taken on the icon. I'll be shifting back to a more professional design in the next release - right after I fix your bug. - Matt

Great App for Military Aircrew

Hi Robcat5, Thanks for your feedback, it's really appreciated. I'm updating the app with some new features at the moment so will put the ability to categorise your currencies in the pipeline! 😊 - Matt
Better
Other ideas: Can you create criteria for each currency that should be met to satisfy that entry and being current. The default could be the date as the present app tracks. Example would be a 90 day landing currency, condition would be 3 take-off and landings in that 90 days for it to remain green. Another example would be 3 precision approaches and 3 non-precision approaches in 6 months to remain IR current for mil pers.

Hi Edmondson684, Thanks for your continued feedback, it's really appreciated. I'm updating the app with some new features at the moment and will be including the ability to change currency requirement criteria in a future release. 😊 - Matt
Okay
(For example; several annual checks run to include the remainder of the month of issue, or can be done up to 3 months in advance without penalty. It is not possible to record this, unless you ‘lie’ to the app and tell it an event will be done in the future (i.e. at the end of the month), but this ruins the validity of the “completed” date)
Please allow manual override of expiry dates.
