Good Flight Planner
Works for me!
Powerful and affordable aviation app
Cons: As with any specialized application, it takes some initial use and experience to learn the finer points of the app beyond the basics. That however is dependent on your use the website, iPad, or iPhone versions of the application. I feel the website is the best for pre-flight planning (I haven’t figured out how to tie flights together in the app like I do on the website). The external GPS/ADS-B is a con in that you must be aware some of them are proprietary (i.e. they only work with ForeFlight), so be careful if you do buy one to work with this app.
Summary: Overall this has been a great purchase. It allows for more flexibility in my budget for some additional personal flying adventures. Having all the essentials with iFlightPlanner, I can focus more on aviating and less on admin.
As a multi-licensed CFII, recommend this application over others due to its balance between simple and complex functions, with an affordable work subsidy (e.g. copilot admin work the app does for you).
Cheap way to fly & log
Cannot say the same thing about Log10 which is useless at that. (I get it that they want to have every flight to a different airport logged at a XC for Pt. 135 and/or 121 mins., but it’s still a pain.)
I see 172Capt said 10 years ago that it crashes a lot. Don’t find that true, but my iPad that is really old crashes a lot.
I also like the timer that can come up on the same page as the plate.
AND much cheaper than Foreflight!
Response from developer
Thanks for your review and kind words about our support! Providing first class support has been a core principle since day one. We're always happy to help. On our Downloads, you can download the entire US at once without having to select every state. To do so, go to the Downloads tab, tap Settings at the top right, then select "United States" under "Download Region Selections." We see now the "United States" option could look like a header for the list of states, rather than an option itself! In addition, we are well into development for our iPhone version, so keep your eyes out for that in the near future!
Excellent Value
Best application for flight planning
Not worth the money
Easy to use flight planning app
The forte of this app is that I can plan a flight on my PC using the desktop version of the program using the much larger screen and a keyboard. The saved flight plan is then available on my iPad where I can transfer the flight plan to Garmin Pilot for use in my airplane. This app is usable in the airplane, particularly for VFR flight. It needs further refinements to match the capabilities of Garmin Pilot and Foreflight for IFR flight use.
Where I will definitely use this app is on my older iPad3 which is too old for the other apps. iFlightPlanner on my iPad3 easily pairs with X-Plane 11 offering moving map display and approach charts for IFR practice flights on the simulator. For the modest cost of an annual basic iFlightPlanner subscription I’ve got a great use for my older iPad on the sim.

I believe we communicated via e-mail about this issue. We have investigated and identified an issue with the top right navigation button when viewing a flight that allows you to switch between flight views (which can also be done by swiping left or right on the views). This issue affected iOS 9 & 10, but not iOS 11, 12 or, 13. We try to support as many versions of iOS as possible to prevent you from having to upgrade your older iPad if it is still working fine, but there are sometimes subtle differences between versions that produce an odd bug like this one. The updated version of iFlightPlanner is in the App Store with this issue corrected. We hope we can earn your additional stars!
