Glad to see PPGPS on IOS

Happy to see PPGPS has made its way over to iOS! I saw some comments about compass not working correctly but it appears to be working just fine for me on an iPhone SE2020. I hope to try it out soon on my next flight and update how the experience went.

Needs to be fixed

No gps position
Compass does not work

Basically useless, Wont save flights

How can you review anything when it won’t save the flight just flown.

Menu options are worthless and are less than helpful.

Needs bugs to be fixed.

Compass is plainly incorrect in giving a bearing of any accuracy. Do not rely on this. I don’t know what system it uses but if it’s GPS based then there should be no updates if a certain distance hasn’t been traveled (Compass should be red in this mode! Green if direction correctly calculated over a certain distance). Problem is that if PG is stalled compass is useless. Maybe use IOS compass if viable on IOS app. As far as maps, the ability to pre#download would be a good option. Downloading in remote areas is painfully slow on a cell phone. Interface should have a metric/imperial switch to quickly set between units. Having an option for Bluetooth device to be connected would be wonderful too. People can then use iPad/tablets with larger visibility of map data. Good product concept but needs a lot of work before I would buy.

Really great except the compass seems quirky

Great app....love the wind direction feature most. Makes life easy - better than the wind sock.
