### 5/5 — Useful App

*2023-05-04*

Useful App and and easy to use on my iPad mini. Many calculations to choose from.

### 5/5 — Makes you smarter!

*2023-02-16*

Overall a very powerful tool once you figure out how to use it. Great for basic aviation math.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2023-01-13, version 2.4.1*

Greatest!!! Been using it for a number of years!!

### 5/5 — Absolutely brilliant

*2023-01-12, version 2.4.1*

Been using this for a couple of years.
As a PPL coming back to flying after a break of 10 years this app has been a revelation!

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2022-09-26, version 2.4.1*

Very Useful

### 5/5 — JustAplaneFlyGuy

*2022-09-04*

This is an excellent app for any pilot. I prefer to use it, over any other device. However, it doesn’t hurt to have a regular hand-powered E6b with you, just in case.

### 5/5 — Best ever

*2022-09-03, version 2.4.1*

I fly planes and helicopter and use this App for EVERY flight. Very, very well done !!!!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2022-07-06, version 2.4.1*

It’s really helpful

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-06-10, version 2.4.1*

Tried sportys and this - refunded the other, could not be happier with this.  Fast to use, bookmarks, lots of calculators

### 5/5 — Very comprehensive

*2022-02-20, version 2.4.1*

At the price point this is at the upper end for Apps. Nonetheless I use it almost every day and I find it easy to learn and can quickly find what I need.
I am a Class Rating Instructor and an Instrument Rating Instructor so regularly teach Instrument procedures including holding.
Compared to a lap around the hold in a multi engine aircraft this app is good value by comparison.
Comprehensive and highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Super app

*2022-01-24, version 2.4.1*

Thank you!! Cheers!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2022-01-08, version 2.4.1*

Топ за свои деньги!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2021-12-08*

This is a super great calculator! Very quick and very well organized. For some reason, sometimes when I press a number to enter into the formula, the app doesn’t always respond to my touch. Other than that small quirk, I love this app!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2021-09-02, version 2.4.1*

Very useful app, with lots of calculations.

### 5/5 — Useful tool

*2021-07-18, version 2.4.1*

Use it every day along with ForeFlight

### 5/5 — Very nice App

*2021-07-07, version 2.4.1*

This app is better than sp*try’s or other apps or sp*rty’s hardware calculator. 
Excellent UI/UX and good categorization of various calculations make it very easy to use. 
I think very best app for aviation.

### 5/5 — Comodissima

*2021-05-19, version 2.4.1*

Ottima utility per chi vola spesso! Grazie

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-04-16*

This app covers all aviation calculations you need except Va when under gross weight. 
Buy it. You will not need another E6B app!  I use it frequently for X country planning.  Professionally done and easy to use.

### 5/5 — All you need!

*2021-02-21, version 2.4.1*

A great E6B/ whizz wheel. I’ve tried others and this is simpler to use and caters better for us in Europe, where as others only deal with US used units. Recommended.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2020-11-21, version 2.4.1*

This is a really good and useful app. Nice on iPad too. Thanks

### 1/5 — Non da informazioni corrette!

*2020-07-14, version 2.4.1*

I dati calcolati sono approssimativi e non corretti. Da una calcolatrice mi aspetto precisione e non tanto al metro. 
Esempio: Altitide 22ft /qnh 1007 risultato = 202ft. Il risultato corretto è 193ft.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2019-09-03, version 2.4.1*

PNR calc doesn’t make provisions for SGR OUT/SGR HOME (for depressurised or OEI).

### 1/5 — Inaccurate results

*2019-07-28, version 2.4.1*

Hi 

I decided to use this for a cross county flight.  The wind / course correction was severely off!  I can be certain that I entered the correct data.  Luckily I noticed on SkyDemon that something was wrong!  Then I used a whiz wheel ( which this is supposed to be!) and the real whiz wheel more or less matched SkyDemon!!

### 1/5 — Awful - No Mach calculations

*2019-07-08, version 2.4.1*

Awful - No Mach calculations

### 1/5 — No weight and balance

*2018-07-17*

Spent a lot of time trying to decide between this and the sportys app as I need an e6b as a student pilot.  Figured this app would have basic weight and balance calculations since the description said over 75 aviation calculations, but it does not.  I am very disappointed and I will have to buy the sportys app to make up for this apps shortfall

### 1/5 — Great app, but new look and feel is terrible

*2015-12-21, version 2.3.9*

I love this app and use it frequently. The new look and feel that was introduced recently is real retrograde step (in my view). I don't like it and will probably migrate to a similar product. 

Maybe it's an age thing, but I find it very hard on my eyes.  The older version would have gotten 5 stars!

### 1/5 — Last Version

*2015-11-10, version 2.3.8*

Last version is simply Horrible. It looks the ghost of the previous one, loast all the colours

### 1/5 — Falla

*2015-10-21, version 2.3.7*

No se pueden sumar tiempos

### 1/5 — Crash

*2012-11-07, version 2.3.5*

Excelente programa porem na versao atual esta dando crash ao iniciar, somente no ipad.

### 1/5 — YEAH WELL ...

*2012-04-26, version 2.3.3*

I bought this app because I consider iwizwheel to be overpriced, but considering the functionality I think I might buy iwizwheel anyway.  The word 'diatance' still appears even though your latest fix claims to have fixed that problem.   Additionally you claimed to provide a climb gradient function, but it is locked at 3.3%.  Not all airfields, missed approaches and SIDs in the world are at 3.3 and it would be useful (nay essential) for my work to be able to set higher climb gradients to calculate.    A degree based climb / descent calculation was also lacking. 

No PNR, CP and weather for airfields in Australia seems to be impossible, even with ICAO designators.

Refund please. 

Guess I'm going back to the wheel, at least it doesn't mislead me.

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-12-29, version 2.4.1*

Sehr gute App für schnelle Berechnungen  sowie: Geschwindigkeit, Distanz, Wetter u.a. Der Speicherplatz ist auch wirklich ok…

### 5/5 — Top ! Absolutely usefull

*2025-11-17, version 2.4.1*

Tellement utile que je n’ai jamais pensé à utiliser une autre appli que celle-là quand il s’agissait de conversion, triangle des vitesses, etc !

### 5/5 — E6B

*2025-10-06*

Has everything you need for calculations, definitely beats carrying around a physical E6B and easy to use. You can save specific conversions to the top of the app page and definitely my favorite feature. Looking forward to whatever updates and advancements come in the future. :)

### 5/5 — Perfecto

*2025-08-14, version 2.4.1*

Me ayuda mucho en mis vuelos y los cálculos de los mismos en diferentes factores.

### 5/5 — Completa

*2024-12-06, version 2.4.1*

Ben fatta, intuitiva e veloce!

### 5/5 — Superb App

*2024-12-04, version 2.4.1*

Very useful.

### 5/5 — myE6B

*2024-09-08, version 2.4.1*

Well set out making it easy and quick to find your desired calculation or conversion.
👍 well done!

### 5/5 — Big thumbs up

*2024-03-25, version 2.4.1*

Personally viewed as the best flight app for calculations of any aviation need. Like „descent rate calculation“ or „temperature or true airspeed calculation.“ Even if one is only interested in playing around with numbers in aviational kontext, you can really have a lot of fun. As a real pilot I believe this app is massive.

### 5/5 — Top

*2023-08-13, version 2.4.1*

Sehr gutes Tool. Hilft in der Ausbildung und danach. Easy zu bedienen. Kann man nur Empfehlen…

### 5/5 — Best E6B on the App Store

*2023-05-20*

Been using this app for quite a few years. It is easy to use, has a great layout and is better than any separate device you could buy. I have never had any negative issues with the app and it always works when I open it. I highly recommend this for any Pilot,  no matter what level of your flying you are currently at.
