Awesome App
Useful
Not Free
Response from developer
Thanks for your feed back. The app was always meant to be paid, but the only way to offer a free trial was to make it free in the app store and offer a subscription. (Unfortunately, only subscriptions are allowed to have a free trial - not lifetime purchases). I know, it's not ideal and I wish the rules were different. But I'll make the "purchase requires" messaging more prominent. In the meanwhile, please feel free to reach out to help@flight9.app if you've any questions, or would like to suggest any future updates (always free to lifetime customers :) )
Purchases IMMEDIATELY
Response from developer
Hi there, Sorry you feel that an app needs to be free for it to be good or useful. As for requiring an immediate purchase - that's incorrect. You have the option of starting a free trial on startup - just like so many apps on the App Store, including some famous big-brand aviation apps displayed alongside this one. Did you start a free trial? If so, did you evaluate the app and it's features? Do you have a specific complaint about a feature or lack of? If not, then leaving an angry review isn't really a fair for an indie developer, is it? The only way to offer a free trial is for you to download it for free. You can't do that if you have to pay upfront. Only make the lifetime purchase if you actually find the app useful. Finally, there are some free E6B apps available on the App Store. I recommend you check them out - I have and some have even produced incorrect calculations. Building an app that gives you correct calculations, is useful, and saves you time takes a lot of effort - something all developers should be compensated for. Best wishes on your flight lessons (if you're a student).
Great so far
Would like to have a pressure/density altitude calculator as well tho! Don’t know why thats not on here as it seems like a simple piece missing. Just plugging in elevation, altimeter setting and temperature.
Response from developer
Hi there, you can calculate pressure and density altitude - those are in the E6B page, right at the top. The E6B tab was designed to take into account all the info you might need for filling out a nav-log. Hope that helps! Happy to help you further at help@flight9.app
