### 1/5 — Add 1 page approach chart option

*2026-06-21*

Please allow an option to display the approach chart in 1 windows vs 3 windows.   It would be more useable.

### 1/5 — auto update cleared all bookmarks

*2026-06-18*

i have bookmarked some documents within this app recently auto update has made all bookmarks gone away

### 1/5 — Weather presentation

*2025-02-05, version 6.7.20*

Updated to iOS 18.3 and Convection displays dotted instead of the usual solid, while the data is not expired yet.

### 2/5 — Where has the day/night toggle button gone?!

*2025-01-20, version 6.7.10*

Previous editions had the day/night toggle at the top next to the help and sleep buttons.
Where has it gone? It was very useful, please bring it back.

### 1/5 — Documents section is woeful.

*2024-12-05, version 6.7*

The Documents section is appalling & barely usable. As an example a simple searches fail to find the most basic of information.

Scrap the entire section & just send us a pdf, at least that way we can find what we need. Staggering the UK CAA think this is acceptable for what used to be the worlds favourite airline!

### 1/5 — Horrible program and poor charts.

*2024-04-12*

The program itself seems to be written for a windows engineer. It’s practical use in the flight environment is extremely poor and clunky. This program was forced on us at work I believe will be a contributing cause in future accident or incident. It’s lack of support for ADSB data and no VFR charts take away from situational awareness. If you change runways for departure or arrival, you must also go back and change the SID or STAR. Swapping between the airport, moving map and the ground charts at any of the big airports is horrible.
I believe anyone would be better off to use NOAA charts this program.

### 1/5 — disappointing

*2024-01-13, version 6.4*

Unfortunately some new updates downgrade user’s experience.
More attention to feedbacks please!

### 1/5 — No progress in charts

*2024-01-12, version 6.4*

This app is completing to cover a lot of information for flight (weather notam..) but the Charts interface is poor. It takes infinite time to decode the symbols, it is impossible to read information AOI at the same time as looking at a chart, or simply to display two charts at the same time on the screen. Paper was still lot more efficient

### 1/5 — Terrible product

*2023-10-09*

Our airlines has forced us to switch to LIDO from Jeppessen.  This GUI is full of glitches, the two finger page swap is so sensitive that if you pinch to zoom, it sometimes switches charts, very frustrating and the app crashes.   How can you release an app that seems to have been designed by a school kid without having undergo real quality control?

The charts are also terrible.  The STARs have no runway transition text and it appears no one is quality checking the source data as I have already found numerous charts with gross errors.   You boast that showing only the data you need for a runway as better, but the problem is when you get a last minute runway change, not easy to quickly find the correct altitude.  One must select a new STAR with that runway, requiring a lot of steps.  This adds complexity as we are entering the critical phase of flight.   Speeds are in black making them easy to miss.    

The new multi window interface for the charts is the worst.  How is splitting the IAC into 4 windows better than a single window.   Your backup PDFs are 100 times better, can you offer a single window option?  I can get everything I need without re-sizing and or zooming each little window to be able to see what I need to.  Did you even have real pilots offer advice on how this will work?

The AMM is missing number spots, runway length, exit distances.  You have to reference the AGC and APC to get all the information you need.  Why can’t you have it all on 1 chart?

The weather layers are terrible, where are the turbulence charts?  What about ADS-B in capability?  The weather looks like someone took a cue from Roblox and if you want it updated it, you must close the app and re-open it, it does not have a time lapse, in short completely useless.

### 2/5 — SID and STAR

*2023-07-22, version 6.3*

Is it possible to add SID/STARs to the route to be able to get the correct route distance and to be able to view the SID/STAR on the enroute map?

If it’s not possible, I think it’s a very important feature to have and should to corrected ASAP

Graphical METAR Indicators
View METAR conditions directly on the map with intuitive color-coded indicators (red/amber/green) for quick weather assessment at airports along your route.

Turbulence Probability Insight
A new “Probability” field in turbulence forecasts offers better insight into the likelihood of turbulence, supporting more informed decisions.

GDL 90 Support (Starlink Compatible)
Support for GDL 90-compatible data sources enables improved own-ship positioning.

Document Module Enhancements
Refactored document module with improved search and harmonized annotations for a more consistent experience.
