### 3/5 — Needs a dark mode!!!

*2026-06-25, version 5.0.13*

When it comes to looking up TAFs for remote airports and mine sites in AUS, there’s only one app and it works great most of the time.

BUT myself and my other night bandits can agree that we need a dark mode for looking at TAFs whilst flying back of the clock.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-01-26, version 5.0.13*

With all the money they spend on oz runways you would think they could put some effort into improving this app. Terrible application that needs a complete redesign.

### 1/5 — Please Fix User interface

*2025-04-03, version 5.0.13*

Could you please fix the window from accidentally closing when clicking on the outside of the border on iPad.

### 4/5 — Pinch to Zoom?

*2025-01-18, version 5.0.12*

Great App. Use it all the time but how about adding Pinch to Zoom for those of us whose eyes aren’t getting any younger.

### 3/5 — Some basic improvements would help

*2024-12-04, version 5.0.11*

Bug? I noticed that when I submit a flight notification on the web version using Northing/Eastings for waypoints which include 0’s - when I open in the App version for an amendment the 0’s have been removed from my entries so I get an error message? Also, if I have ‘saved’ a draft Flight Notification on the web version, I can’t access/retrieve the saved file on the App?

### 3/5 — Was great at release

*2024-11-27, version 5.0.11*

A great simple app, however some additional features to keep it current would help, specifically a dark mode /system setting like OzRunways.

### 3/5 — Basic functions

*2024-03-27, version 5.0.9*

In a world where we can use two fingers to zoom in to see and read information in 99% of applications, it continuously disappoints me that all the weather and NOTAM data NAIPS provides we can not zoom in to read easier.

### 3/5 — Nearest Location

*2023-12-07, version 5.0.9*

Using the nearest locations seems to be way off the last few weeks?

### 1/5 — Soooo hard to use !

*2023-04-12, version 5.0.7*

Constant error messages - just gave up

### 5/5 — Access Violation

*2023-03-19, version 5.0.7*

Occasionally getting the above message when trying to get TAFs and NOTAMs. 
All other charts updating.
