Connection Issues
Tried everything recommended by Simionics and others to connect iPad to PC. All results in G1000 PC application saying “timed out, reconnecting”. Im sure the MFD is great when it works, but a $10 app should not be this finicky.
Response from developer
MFD only connects to PFD app, it doesn’t connect to PC directly. PFD is the one connects to PC.
FS2020 Nav Sync
Nave settings don’t sync with FS2020 G1000. I won’t buy the basil until this is fixed. I’m using two iPads and the program otherwise it works perfectly.
Good app
I like the app, no issues so far. I have one concern though, is it possible to change the location of the aircraft on the MFD ?
Hangs and Crashes Every Time
I’ve been using the Simionic G1000 MFD for a few weeks now. I’m using it standalone (no sim attached, nothing). I’m on the Apple iPad Pro 13” M4 (2024) model with 2TB capacity.
While it works great for a little while (maybe 10 minutes or so), I can always count on it to freeze up. Many times, it will also crash (disappear). It is very frustrating.
To be honest, I wouldn’t spend any money on this if you are contemplating buying it.
The PFD is also buggy, exhibiting similar freezes and crashes.
They work great until they don’t. They both freeze and crash every time. Sometimes after 10 minutes, sometimes I can use the app a little longer before I can’t use it.

Doesn't integrate
BEWARE if you want to use this app with MS Flight Simulator, it doesn't integrate with flight plans created in FS. Instead you have to enter new flight plans in this app, using fiddly controls to enter codes one letter at at time using the rotary controller. If you have a plane with its own G1000, then the 2 will fight for control on autopilot. It effectively acts as a separate unit giving the sim its own input from its own AP. So while it does act as a G1000 MFD, it doesn't integrate fully into the app.
