Not great for Jets

If you’re a professional pilot and fly in the flight levels, this app is pretty terrible. First takeoff out of FTW (Ft. Worth Meacham) it told my wife that we had returned to the airfield 5 minutes after takeoff, when in reality we were at FL240 and climbing. It’s done this on basically every flight so far, or, it just completely cuts off tracking in the middle of a flight and says we landed and sends her a text message, but we haven’t actually landed. It’s made my wife more nervous thinking something happened than giving her a piece of mind. So, until this app fixes the high altitude capability, I won’t be using it anymore. Thankfully I was doing the free trial and didn’t pay for it.

Sometimes doesn’t work

The app is a great idea however it does have some bugs which I’m willing to tolerate as they develop the software. The best part is the text messaging to two emergency contacts; suggestion : added contacts should be allowed to get those text messages to more people.

Review required to register. Not sure what I’m supposed to recommend if I haven’t used it yet?

Doesn’t log flights

I’ve tried all settings on the app and non of them give me constant flight logs. Canceling my subscription today.

Great concept but doesn’t track my flights

Great concept. I’ve tried using the app and it is not tracking my flights. When I first downloaded the app it tracked my flight but wouldn’t stop the flight when I landed. I flew multiple legs, then drove home. It still showed me flying on my drive home. Now it won’t track my flights at all. I’ve tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it. I’ve tried to contact support but they are slow to respond, it took 5 days to get a response.

Great app

Love the concept, idea and design of the app. Features works flawlessly. However the battery usage is rather high while not flying and during flights. It drained 65% of my battery on a 3 hrs nav. And 10% background while on days I’m not flying

App is unusable

App is now unusable since a few updates as it asks for home airport and it cannot be selected so cannot go though the process of accessing the app that was working well before.

Also no way to contact support as email and website are down

Best aviation app

Probably the best aviation app on the App Store. It’s a great spot to meet and talk to other pilots. The tracking is also spot on and super fun to use

Flight Tracking

I enjoy the app in theory, but I just had to delete the app and redownload it because the flight tracking never registered the end of my flight. There is no manual override to end a flight in the app as far as I could find. Turning off location services also did not end the flight tracking. It seemed continually frozen in the background on my phone lock screen and island, even closing the app did not end it.

Battery Drain

Cool idea of an app but if you’re using the app to automatically track your flights and notify your friends when you fly it will kill your phone battery. If they can fix the battery drain issue it would be an awesome app

Awesome Tracking App

Great App! Helps my family keep track of me since my aircraft don’t have a public ID. As well, fun to share flights with other fellow pilots.

To expensive

Like every other instagram app, they make you answer 1000 question, so at the end you have to pay an expensive subscription

love the new update

every update makes this app better and now that’s it’s completely free it’s so good. the new map page is really nicely designed and i’m looking forward to see what’s next!

Buggy, But Awesome

This app serves as an excellent “social media” platform for pilots, however, some of the displayed features are buggy and/or don’t work. Watching flights back via the “play” button, only shows a black screen and displays altitude changes. The 3D display does not work. All other features are great and I use the app regularly to log my flights in addition to my physical/digital logbooks. I’ll drop a 5-star review once the bugs are sorted out!

App goes black after launch

Tried to sign into my account, then when I open the app, it just goes black. Uninstalled and reinstalled, restarted the phone, still the same issue. Waste of space.

Finally a connection

I’ve been looking for a way to connect more with the aviation community and share cool stories. This is exactly what I was looking for

Great app but…

The subscription is not worth it, the 3D map and GPS tracking has never worked for me.

Hangar

Amazing

Rip Off!

Says absolutely nothing about a monthly fee. Once you waste your time creating your account, uploading your picture, writing out your bio and everything else that goes along with it, THEN it tells you it’s $9.99 per month! What a waste of time and now I’m just ANNOYED!!

Great App

Pretty Cool Social app for pilots
