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.

Location change

Dear Colleagues,
You can see setting button by tapping on the screen right upper corner. You can change your location as you wish.

X-plane 과 호환은 잘됨

엑스플레인을 사용중이라 앱자체는 엑스플레인이랑 호환이 잘되어서 좋은데 FPL작성하다보면 자꾸 튕겨서 자꾸 리셋되어서 이부분좀 해결해주셨으면 좋겠습니다

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.

Me ajudou bastante.

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.

SIMIONICS G1000. PDF and MFD and NXi

I have been using SIMIONICS Flight simulator products for the last two years. This product uses Bluetooth and WiFi technology to connect to X-Plane 11,12; P3D v5, and MSFS 2020 effortlessly. I am presently Beta testing the G1000 PFD and MFD NXi that will soon be available to the flight simulation general population. I also have used FlightSimGear products which will deliver your flight simulation immersion as well. I’m just super impressed on the technology behind the SIMIONICS panel products which allows me to duplicate my lessons after I leave the airport.

May not be what you expect

If you are looking for integration with a flight simulator this is not what you are expecting. You can not execute a flight plan in the sim or control the sim G1000 from this app. It does not talk to x-plane other than very basic parameters such as position and engine data.
If you need an app to learn the G1000 system this may be what you are looking for. Garmin makes a PC based trainer but not an iPad app.

Pause button n flight path please…

The app is great! Just you need to add pause button. We cannot stop the flight while working on.

Flight path would be amazing. We are student pilots and want to use this app in our lectures. It would be great if you can add flight path in that way we can see the path we fly and compare it with our flight plans.

Unusable

Don’t work without the PFD………….

Cannot connect PFD and MFD on the same iPad

I bought the MFD app to run both PFD and MFD on the same iPad but I did not find the way to connect both so the MFD is useless. Can not afford to buy a second iPad to make both PFD and MFD running simultaneously. Too bad.

Separately Use

Why not allowed to use mfd detached from pfd…?

Horrible

Horrible. Do not buy it, waste of money

Trash

Wanted it to see if I can use the mixture. Was a waste of time and money wish I can return it and get my money back

Not worth spending money on

App doesn’t really work, seams like a bata version and doesn’t recognize my inputs. Your location is always set in china. You’re better off just watching YouTube videos

Very happy, but…

Bought the PFD months ago, and so happy with the results, a definetly recommended tool to improve your skills with the G1000, and become a master with thr real system while airborne..

Today I’ve bought the MFD, as I want to improve my skills on it, and also so happy once exploring all its functionalities

The only problem I am having is that there is no way to pair both iPads, as despite being connected to the same local network, neither the PFD detects the MFD, nor the way round:(

Any clue how to troubleshot that?

Thank you!

Need clarity of app requirement

The app requirement, in my opinion is misleading. In my case I just wanted the MFD, but I could not get it to work with MSFS2020. The support (or lack there of) was difficult to obtain any help. I searched YouTube for anything that could help and found one obscure video that the MFD needs to connect to the PFD app, which in turn connects to the flight sim.

C'mon guys...if I'm gonna sink $15CAD, you BETTER make this clear from the get-go. This isn't rocket science. Your site needs work.

Buyer beware.

Muy buena aplicación

Muy buena aplicación junto con el PFD. Le falta la posibilidad de importar planes de vuelo desde X plane. Cuando sea posible le daré las 5 estrellas.
