What's New in Wingman

4.9.4

September 11, 2026

• Wind estimation improved: The wind estimation algorithm is now more accurate. There is also a new, fully customizable wind instrument. Check the settings to see what's possible. • DHV-XC automatic IGC upload: You can now upload your IGC flights to DHV-XC directly from Wingman, automatically or manually. • Landing Detector improved: Automatic landing detection has been improved and is now smarter. Reminder: you can still trim a flight afterwards. This was recently added in previous version: • Connection to XC Tracer: Wingman can now connect to XC Tracer devices and record your flights using the device's sensors. • Connection to Syride: Wingman can now connect to Syride devices and record your flights using the device's sensors. • A sharper variometer: The built-in variometer reacts faster and more smoothly to every climb and dive. • FAI-approved IGC files: IGC flight files recorded with Wingman are now officially approved by the FAI/CIVL. • Smoother XContest upload: Automatic upload of your flights to XContest has been improved for a more reliable experience. • Apple Watch, optimized: The Apple Watch app has been optimized to run leaner — so your watch goes the distance on your longest flights.
