User reviews

OK. Feedback page wonky.

Most, but not all abbreviations. Developer website link broken. Feedback page for adding new abbreviations, but hangs up in iOS 10.

not working

wanna get refund. not working with iphone6. it s frozen.

App broken

App does not work on iOS 9. When you try to open it flickers then closes. I want a refund...

Needs updating

A good start for deciphering NOTAMs. Many abbreviations are accurately decoded for the end-user.

However, it needs updating and work.

1) There are many more obscure and uncommon abbreviations and codes. Current list is not wholly comprehensive.

2) Clarifying which abbreviations are ICAO, FAA etc would be useful.

3) Search function might be better designed.

4) Make it iPad compatible.
