Double tap or hold down on the first word so it gets highlighted, then use the indicator circles that show up to drag and highlight the rest of the text. You can then copy the text and paste into notepad. Just a tip. ### 2/5 — App needs update *2023-10-02* Text cuts off, other users complaining of no sound etc ### 2/5 — App Needs Update *2023-03-28* The app doesn’t scroll past the first page on the turbulence section or any of the other sections. The other things like the turbulence meter and forecasting links work, but the app sorely needs an update. ### 2/5 — Good Basic Info- Don’t buy Course. No sound. *2022-08-18* I really needed the course I purchased but it has no sound. I uninstalled and reinstalled as per the app notes on the App Store. Didn’t fix the issue. Sadly I lost $20. I left a message on the number provided on the app. If I hear back and am able to use the course I’ll update here and let you all know if it helped! ### 3/5 — The audiobook was more helpful *2022-04-24* I would recommend the audiobook/book over this app/videos. Not sure the videos would have made sense to me if I hadn’t listened to half of the audiobook beforehand. ### 2/5 — Can’t read articles past first page *2021-12-15* Articles will not scroll beyond first page on iPhone 12, iOS 15. ### 2/5 — Videos not working in iOS 13 *2019-11-07, version 1.0.3* Capt. Tom’s course is really good... his book has already helped me a lot! However, I paid to purchase access to his videos in this app, and they do not play at all on iOS 13. I called and spoke to Capt Tom, and informed him. Apparently the videos worked under iOS 12. For now, don’t purchase video access in the app until the app is updated. ### 4/5 — Good but turbulence map links are broken *2015-06-19, version 1.0.2* Need to update to link to appropriate NOAA page. ### 5/5 — Outstanding *2015-04-01* Read the book. Got the app. Completed first flight in over 40 years! ### 4/5 — Great *2014-12-11, version 1.0.2* Lots of useful information for fear of flyers like myself. It does have some pricey in app purchases. ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-02-08, version 1.0.2* This app is great. Whenever im flying and become fearful i just take out soar and it shows me im in the safe zone. Thank you so much captain tom. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Go elsewhere *2026-01-11* I suggest taking flying advice from someone who is mentally stable and not the creator of this app. Just read his Substack, he shows how mentally unstable he is by becoming totally unhinged on politics. If he can’t keep it together over that, who would think that he could help you overcome your fear? He clearly lives in a make believe fear himself. ### 1/5 — Audio didn’t work *2022-08-28* I paid and downloaded it. No sound. Deleted and re-downloaded the app and the course, still no sound. I would like a refund. ### 1/5 — In App Issues *2022-06-01* When selecting a specific topic, only the first page is visible. It will not allow me to scroll down the page to read past what is initially visible. This basically makes the app unusable for me. ### 1/5 — No Sound on Bideo *2022-04-09* Hard to review as I downloaded the first set of videos on my iPhone 12 but no sound, so have to give one star (0 if I could) after spending a lot of money. ### 1/5 — No sound *2019-05-27, version 1.0.3* Whilst the app itself is free, the video content all costs money. The video content is broken up into courses totalling 8 courses for 19.95 each, one for 59.99 and one for 29.99. Whilst this is VERY expensive (the courses for 19.95 are broken up into a series of videos totalling around 30 min with each having the same 30 sec intro) I thought - if this cures my anxiety it is worth the money. I purchased 5 courses for a total of 99.95 dollars only to download them all and find NONE of them had sound - rendering the videos useless meaning I might as well have thrown 100 dollars out the window instead. ### 1/5 — Purchased videos not downloading *2019-05-24, version 1.0.3* Paid 19.99 and the video won’t download! ### 1/5 — No sound *2018-10-04* I was really disappointed that after purchasing the in app videos that the audio wasn’t working. I tried the videos on multiple devices only to get the same result! ### 1/5 — Ripoff *2018-05-09* I spent almost £30 for the audio only take along audio. What a ripoff! It lasts barley 20 mins and doesn’t provide anywhere near the full experience, rather it keeps referring back to techniques presumably described on the other audio and video courses. I found it of no help whosoever when confronting a fear of flying. Be warned: save your money and look elsewhere, however desperate for help you may be. ### 1/5 — Great?! *2013-08-21, version 1.0* I really want use this app, but it keeps failing when I try to open it. Please fix! ### 2/5 — Used to be better *2024-02-21* I had this app several years ago, and it has changed. You used to be able to read the topics. Now you just get the first page and can’t scroll any further. Don’t bother paying, but it’s still good to use the G force meter to see how little shake is really happening in the plane. Last time I used this app I drove over some train tracks with it recording during my drive and WOW. That made a huge difference to my perception of turbulence movement. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Flight anxiety *2025-04-26, version 1.0.9* Tbh the one app that’s genuinely helped me with my flight anxiety. I always buy the turbulence charts before every flight, and they’ve been pretty accurate. Helps knowing what to expect ### 5/5 — I now love flying after 30yrs of extreme fear. *2024-05-08* I sadly spent 30yrs of my life in total extreme fear of flying, after buying this audiobook, possibly written and produced by the best person to actually write it, all my fears are now totally gone. Listen to this expert if you want to beat the fear of flying and see the world. Love the G-Force App which also comes with the audiobook. ### 5/5 — Definitely recommend *2021-08-18* Lots of cool walk through information. Very very helpful. -And interactive. This is good for me. I would recommend anyone looking for plane info, flying fears or gforce meter to try this app. I’m not a ‘recommendation’ person usually. ### 5/5 — Helped me finally get on my flight! *2019-07-30* I missed two flights because I couldn’t board due to my anxiety and fear of panicking during the flight. As a last ditch effort I started looking for anything that could help me. When I found this app I was cautiously optimistic but it really did help me. I was still nervous and I won’t say I completely relaxed at any point during my flight but I was able to keep myself calm and use the tools provided to make the flight as stress free as possible. I DID IT!!! Highly recommended! ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2019-05-07* I am a therapist and also experience a lot of anxiety when traveling. This app is so wonderful. Thank you for creating it! It is very comforting! ### 5/5 — The best *2019-03-08* Combined with music therapy, this app and Capt Bunn has helped me tremendously. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2018-12-12* Over a period of a couple of years,I have used this app. My last trip was London to seattle, I could not believe how relaxed I was for the whole flight and I never at any point felt anxious. Before I have cried dug my nails into my husband and not even moved out of my seat. I read the app when I'm in the airport, it normalises flying. I'm never going to be a big fan of flying but the app has enabled me to be much more confident. ### 5/5 — Fear of flying is not part of my life anymore *2018-01-11* After my second child ( a 9 year old by now) I had develop fear of flying I don't understand why but it happens to me. Every year flying was a nightmare , for the past two years we decided to go on a cruise for our family vacation because of me. Last summer I have to travel from Puerto Rico to Chicago for a business travel on my own. Ar first I was excited for the trip but when I realized that it was a 5 hour flight ( never flew that far ) I was desperate and anxious because I would not have my husband on my side to support my breakdowns when Im flying. A week before I start looking for information about fear of flying and Thank God I found this article about the owner of the application ( a retired pilot ) .. I download the app, start reading the articles , videos etc... I put in place everything that the pilot suggest.. the first two hours of flight were very difficult for me , but Keep practicing and practicing , my mind was fighting against my fears.. and suddenly after 2 1/2 hours of flying , my fears disappear..I can't even explain what I felt in that moment.. it was the most important moment in my life, I felt that know I'm in control of my thoughts and fears. Since then , there's a new me. Fear of flying is my past. Full recommended!!! ### 5/5 — A Big thank you *2016-04-28* Thanks for this app. I really hope I wouldn't need it but if I do, I'm confident that the techniques will help me a great deal. ### 5/5 — Won't fly without this app! *2015-08-25, version 1.0.2* Love! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
