Amazing
Life saver for Pliots. Helped me a ton during training days!
Great app, love it
Awesome app that does everything you “need”
Some minor things that would be nice include:
Bullseye for military guys
Bearing and range tool when you drop two fingers on the screen
Ability to enter decimal degrees for waypoints(DDMM.mm)
Ability to find lag and long for waypoints easier.
None of these are deal breaks though and the app is already quite good.

Garmin claims to be all about safety for pilots. But are they really? they pulled and critical safety information from this app. Those actions do not depict a safety first attitude.
which is strange, considering the safety features, they have built into their hardware for the cockpit.
The real fear is, they will move this app to look more like Garmin pilot. Which has a horrible user interface. Even if you “speak garmin”. Which is not intuitive.

Bye Bye FREE
Since Garmin got their greedy hands on this once wonderful, free app, it's only a matter of time before they eother shut it down or start charging an arm & leg for it. Typical business practice for Garmin. Ex. in order to force their loyal customers to buy their new GTNs, they stop supporting the 430/530s. Criminal imo.

you will get spammed
If you enter your phone number into this program when It asks for information to sign up and login, they will put you on a spam list so if you want to get tons of sales calls, have at it. 👎🏻
Flight plan go
Works great with most ADSB units.
Best of all it’s free.
Has about every function you might need.
Not quite as intuitional as I would like but reading the manual fixes that.
It is my go-to app when in the airplane.

Although generally cumbersome and difficult to figure out, this app is very powerful once deciphered. And it’s free! Well worth it if you’re not willing to shell out for foreflight/garmin
Crashes a lot on iPad Pro 11” 1st Gen
For the free price, this is a useful alternative to ForeFlight. I like connecting it to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 — there is no danger when FltPlan Go crashes during a sim flight. But, I wouldn’t trust this app when flying real aircraft — those app crashes would be frustrating and potentially dangerous. I am a student pilot.

Good app but few issues
(1) outdated weather. I’m based in Canada and this app doesn’t show up to date weather (METAR/TAF) all the time so I have to go to Navcanada’s AWWS.
(2) when I make a log book entry and refresh the logbook page to see my total hours, it takes me back to the homepage and I have to tap on Tools>eLogbook again to see my flights. Sometimes I even have to sign back in to the eLogbook portal. That’s annoying.
(3) the interface is overall laggy and cumbersome. It keeps showing random “no gps” and “internet connectivity issues” popups and randomly “resets” the whole interface. It just feels glitchy and a general reluctance to use the app starts to develop.

Way too confusing

Just merge them— complete waste of time

First App I Tried Since Two Decades Ago.
Came back to flying since from the mid ‘90s. Back then I needed two Jeppesen binders to cover the NE region and updating was a pain in the.....With this baby, I keep VFR, IFR and A/FD for my current area in the size of an iphone 7; and update with a click of a button. Just this ability is already amazing, now add the GPS, moving maps, superposition of weather, SIGMETs, METARs and approach plates onto the map, just WOW! I don’t need to compare it to paid services.
UPDATE 02/23/21 Still WOW! Still using this baby, still don’t need to compare to paid EFGs. I use it to file and fly IFR. I found an old iPhone6 Plus (perfect size for my tight Mooney), and runs in iOS 12 w/o issues; this app is not hungry for OS updates, I like that. I just hope it stays free for the rest of my flying life; even if I have to donate a bit.

No Stratux under iOS14
A great aviation app and many thanks to FlightPlan for the recent update to let it work with Stratux (couldn’t connect to Stratux in iOS14 before the recent update). Works great!!
Response from developer
Hello - There is a known issue with iOS 14 and a feature called Local Network. This has been corrected on FltPlan Go version 5.0.6. Please update at your convenience.
Great for all types of pilots
I fly jets and small props, and use this app every day. It's great for all types if flying. Can't believe it's still free.
It’s nice
I love it. I can connect it to my simulator! Only issue is, I wish it can connect to the newest simulator which is MSFS 2020. :) I wish
This app is a real gem
Love to use it!!!
Hopefully after purchased by Garmin it wouldn’t become a candy-looking-like another product which charges you for every single item in it...

Update problems
With the most recent update, I am unable to edit any tokens on the second or third lines in the maps section. Only tokes on the first line can be moved and placed. This is quite annoying when trying to creat a new route and edit the route.
Response from developer
Hello - thanks for the review. This issue will be corrected in a future release. In the meantime, please use Text instead of Tokens.
Doesn’t work
I downloaded the app, opened it and was immediately hit with a “failed to download database” error. Tapping retry does nothing.
