## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Confused

*2021-02-24*

Like many others, I could not get the sound to play. One commenter referenced a FAQ, but they don’t say where it can be found. Why would anybody write an app that doesn’t use the normal iPad volume controls. That real clever guys.

### 1/5 — No audio iPad Pro

*2020-02-29*

Downloaded two of these apps for the Garmin 430 and could not get the sound to play.

### 1/5 — Lips moving

*2019-09-24*

I can see his lips moving but I can’t hear anything. I’m using an iPad Pro 2nd generation.

### 1/5 — Sound

*2019-08-19*

Sound will not play on my iPad either. Volume is all the way up.

### 1/5 — No sound

*2017-08-12*

No sound. Not on mute other sounds are ok

### 1/5 — No sound

*2016-07-20*

No sound for me as well.

### 1/5 — No sound

*2016-04-30*

Like another reviewer mentioned, no sound

### 1/5 — No sound

*2016-03-08*

Loaded twice no sound

### 1/5 — audio

*2013-04-22*

No audio playing in video...

### 4/5 — Sound

*2023-04-06*

Of you have your iPhone or iPad on silent (the switch on the left that turns red) then the vid will be silent for some reason.  So turn your ringer on to hear it.

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Sound works just fine

*2016-06-01*

Like mentioned in the FAQs of our website, our apps and videos use the system volume of your iOS device. If it's on mute you will have no sound....

### 5/5 — Audio

*2013-05-23*

Audio works perfectly. Users just need to flip the mute switch on their iPad and make sure the system volume is turned up.

### 5/5 — First rate training and app

*2012-11-19*

I bought this app as a review prior to my BFR and IPC. I hadn't flown in a while and wanted a pre-review review.

There are four SoCal approaches covered--an LPV, an ILS, an LNAV and a VOR. Each one is set up on the 530, some with alternative programming, and flown. 

The teaching is clear, direct, easy to understand and a great review. Production is high quality, including highlights inserted on approach plates as they are pointing out a frequency, a waypoint or a leg. It really couldn't be clearer.

 I wasn't sure about spending so much for an unknown product, but I'm now a satisfied customer and highly recommend their products. I'm looking forward to their next IFR product.
