### 5/5 — Perfect online logbook

*2026-05-02, version 2.3.1*

been using it for almost 1 and a half years, and I am really happy best app out there

### 4/5 — Great logbook

*2026-03-08*

Very initiative user interface compared to log10. I would even like it more if you add the ability to input waypoints instead of just airports!

### 5/5 — Enfin un carnet de vol simple et efficace

*2026-02-26, version 2.3*

Très facile à prendre en main, les 50 premières heures offertes sont parfaites pour s’en rendre compte, et un achat unique à vie ensuite est très apprécié (c’est une des raisons principales du choix de cette application, la quasi totalité des autres ne proposant qu’un abonnement)

### 5/5 — Mostly good

*2026-01-31, version 2.3*

Lots of features without annoying and crazy expensive subscriptions like other apps. But comes with it’s downsides: rare updates (some airports missing like VDTI, which I personally uploaded), some small but frustrating bugs (multiple sectors during one day sorted by name, not by time of departure) and bug reporting requires additional registration on some 3rd party website, which is a bother.

Upd. To solve sorting issue you have to select UTC dates in settings. Otherwise it uses local dates by default and this creates a sorting issue.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-01-09*

I’ve been using this app since 2017 and I love it! Very easy to set up all fields, totals, currents, whatever… Also it’s easy to transfer all data from one platform to another, best support ever! Good luck to the team and thank you for Smart Logbook!

**Developer response:** Thank you for using Smart Logbook and for the great review! -Keith

### 5/5 — Great Support Great Logbook

*2025-11-14, version 2.2.1*

Been with Smart Logbook for a couple of  years, very impressed with great customer service, if you don’t find a result in the help section just email them and you will get a reply and a solution, if that doesn’t work the developer will try to solve your problem personally.

### 3/5 — Where is a registration form

*2025-09-27, version 2.2.1*

Only a sign in form is available

### 4/5 — Verbesserungsvorschläge

*2025-04-04, version 2.1.4*

An sich eine sehr gute App, genau das was ich gesucht habe. Es wäre allerdings cool, wenn es automatisch die normalen Flugzeiten für eine Strecke  ergänzt, falls man sie nicht selbst eingibt. Außerdem wäre es gut, wenn bei der Startseite die Flüge nach Jahr getrennt werden. Also einfach ein bisschen übersichtlicher. Auch cool wäre es, wenn bei der Karte die Flugrichtung angezeigt wird, die man geflogen ist. Wenn diese simplen Ideen umgesetzt werden kann ich 5 Sterne geben :)

### 5/5 — Outstanding pilot Logbook

*2024-12-28*

Easy to setup and use! Full featured, anything you need!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the nice review! -Keith

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2024-11-11, version 2.1.3*

I’ve been using this app do a year now and it is obviously worhwhile👌
