Great app but…
New to the app, but so far very pleased with it. I do have some quality of life improvements that I’d love to see added. I’m a flight dispatcher at major U.S. Airline. With that said, having push notifications come to my phone or watch is great for an extra layer of situational awareness. In one shift I’m responsible for being in the know of many airports. On a bad day up to 20-30 airports between origin airports, destination airports, take off alternates, destination alternates, drift down alternates, critical terrain alternates, and intermediate alternates. Long winded I know, but I mention that to drive home this suggestion. I would love to see and even be willing to pay more for the ability to select multiple airports multiple alert types under one push notification rule. As of now I want to know when any of our hubs is below 2000ft ceilings and 3SM. Took me quite awhile to set up notifications for 7 airports (14 individual push alerts). I would also love the option to select persistent alerts where I tell it to alert me each time the alert criteria is met until the end of the timeframe I select. I hate how I tell the app to monitor for ceilings or vis and it expires after the criteria is met despite selecting 5 hours. If I choose 5 hours, I’d like that alert to remain active for 5 hours.
I understand that this may not be what the app is intended for, but I also believe there is a market for it. Something like this would work its way around the part 121 world pretty quick. From pilots, dispatchers, station leadership, flight ops/dispatch leadership. Would also love to see other threats added as well. Thunderstorms, gusts with users able to select desired velocity (wind gusts >30kts), non-convective wind shear in a TAF. I think this app has so much potential to do even more and broaden its user base.

Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback! This is something that we could potentially add in the long term. Currently the app is designed more for pilots who want to monitor only 1 or 2 airports but it could be adapted for those in the Dispatch world as well.
Fantastic app
Just upgrading to CA at a regional airline, this app really helps with quickly checking if we need an alternate, and with being able to customize the minimums you can really help in determining legality when using exemption 17347 or the old 3585, also high mins Captains. Fantastic job, love the interface. God Bless.

Awesome App! Fantastic responsiveness form Developer
I have been using this app for the past 2 years and love it. It tells me what I need to know at a glance, and is flexible enough to adapt it to your needs. When I had some issues (user issues.. not app issues) the developer was amazingly responsive. Double thumbs up👍👍 from me! Get it try it. You will be happy.

Не впечатлило
Не то, что я ожидал! Аэропорты далеко не все и минимумов там нет, необходимо самому вводить эту информацию!
Response from developer
You are correct. There is no way to know what each user would like to set as their custom minimums for each airport. However, we are currently working on a solution to provide suggestions when adding new stations. EDIT: This feature is now available.
Great app and customer support.
I love this app, it allows me to keep track of all the nearby stations cigs, vsby, temp etc. the alerts work great also. I called customer support asking for a farenheight temp, they added this to their update. Quality product and team. Get the app, you won't be disappointed.
Useful
Really easy to see the days weather at a glance. Love the push alerts for weather changes.
