Compass bearing is backwards.

Compass bearing is backwards.

Outdated port from android

App need a lot of work. Clearly a port from Android that needs to be updated

Good app to get lost and stay lost

Compass off by 90 degrees, recalibrated all compass, and map programs
Now off by 200 degrees.
Following this app will get you nick named “Wrong Way” if you are ever seen again.
I was Ripped for 3.99, useless app.

Bearing is backwards!! 🥴

First thing I noticed right away is the bearing is exactly opposite the direction I’m facing. Even the map shows I’m facing east when I’m really facing west. What’s going on?

Great App, few bugs

Great app designed for paramotor pilots. Like the screen layout and information, but the flight logging is hit or miss. Sometimes it logs a flight, sometimes it doesn’t. Hope the app gets updated soon as it’s a great tool for paramotor flying.

Love it!

I love this app it is very well done. There are still a few things that need improvement. Sometimes it doesn’t track but that could be due to losing location services. All in all great app. Also it would be awesome if this was available for Apple Watch.

Fuel needs to be more accurate.

I need the fuel to be more accurate. My paramotor uses 1.2 gallons of fuel a hour that’s cruising. So that needs to be fixed and i want to use my Apple Watch . You used to have it.

Junk

Terrible app the map always opens in France that’s a big problem because I’m in the US

OOPS

This app needs to be fixed.
I found this problem within 60 seconds of buying it: Fuel consumption is LIMTED TO WHOLE NUMBERS.

We’re not flying 747’s here where rounding to the nearest full gallon makes sense.

But when you are chewing through 1-2 gallons per hour... being forced to choose between 1 or 2 gallons is no small error! An optimistic flyer might choose 1... DOUBLING HIS FLIGHT TIME...

This is no laughing matter... it’s a flight safety issue.

This setting should be set to accept AT LEAST one decimal place.

Why wasn’t this addressed in the last update 2 months ago?

Do we have to wait another 2 years before the next update?

VERY BAD

Don't buy this application,is expensive and DOESN'T RECORD THE TRACKS,that is fundamental for pilots.

Great App

Written by a paraglider with A number of great features. Starts when a preset speed is reached, connects to several popular variometers, saves flight data for awesome display in Google earth, excellent in flight dashboard display with custom configuration of gauges. Only complaint is that iPhone lockout needs to be set to "never" before flight starts.

Awful

The developer doesn't care about the product. I bought this app for around 6 months ago but they didn't make it better and update it. Just once for ios9. It doesn't have a compass and doesn't use internal barometer in iPhone 6. I sent them an email but they didn't reply to me

PPGps for iPhone

I really really like this app. So useful to have on board if you're flying point to point or away from your launch point. The SOS feature is a nice tool as well so you can send your buddy's a location to pick you up if you land out.

The only issue I'm having though, is the app allows the iPhone to go to sleep. I know there exists options in the IOS setting to prevent the phone from going to sleep, but my iPhone is a work phone and that option has been removed administratively (I can't even see it). This means the SPP itself needs to prevent the iPhone from sleeping. The code is readily available to do so and I've requested this functionality to be added. The developers are quick responders so I know it'll be looked at when they can. I'll post an update.

Bottom line, this is an excellent PPG app. Do yourself a favor and get it. It's way cheap for everything it does.
