### 3/5 — Ok

*2019-06-03, version 1.2.3*

It’s ok but could be better like showing the flight path and stuff like that

### 2/5 — Needs an urgent update

*2016-12-12, version 1.2.2*

Unfortunately this does not work with X-Plane 11, not sure if it's the actual app or X-plane itself but worth being aware of if you have upgraded to V11

### 2/5 — Shame

*2016-09-22, version 1.2.2*

Was a great app till it stopped working with the last xp10 update.  Shame cuz I'm gonna miss it.

### 4/5 — Great app. Will be perfect with small addition

*2013-11-24, version 1.1.3*

This apps almost perfect. Just add the ability to also display the churned ground speed, heading, and altitude to the top or bottom of the map and you've got a winner compared to all of the other options out there. Foreflight and others are good but they are geared towards real world pilots and require a monthly subscription this ones great for sims but just needs a few more minor additions.  It's they only one that also lets you control the plane! Great job.

### 4/5 — Ca

*2013-09-15, version 1.1.3*

Would be nice to have the following with airplane icon. Heading, speed, and altitude. Right next to the icon.

### 2/5 — Kinda like maps

*2013-02-17, version 1.1.3*

Where Are the freakin planes?

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2012-06-19, version 1.1.1*

This is a piece of sh@t that dosnt work

### 4/5 — It works great!

*2012-04-21, version 1.1.1*

Installing and configuration with x-plane 10 on windows 7 took literally less than 20 seconds. Although the functionality of this free app is (obviously ) quite limited, what it does, it does well. 

I was actually surprised by the accuracy of it. When I was taxiing I could really see where I was exactly. 

Great stuff

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2012-03-14, version 1.1.1*

As I expected, it doesn't work and is overly complicated with ambiguous and contradicting instructions reading the Mac instructions versus the iPhone/iPad version. In the end I learn that I need to set up a little network to supposedly make this work. Nonsense! Glad I tried the lite version and didn't waste money!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2015-11-09, version 1.2.1*

The port number assigned to this app does not match the one in the game settings which happens to be hard coded. In other words, you cannot change it. Neither this app nor the game allows you to change the port number to enable this app to work. Recommend changing the port number to match the one used on the latest X  Plane 10 game. No way I'm buying the pro version it probably has the same problem.

### 1/5 — Should have stayed with the free version.

*2014-09-29, version 1.2.1*

Nothing works on the paid version. Wished it had sky vector data integration.

### 1/5 — Hi

*2014-02-17, version 1.1.3*

Where r the planes

### 1/5 — 10.22 update needed

*2014-01-16, version 1.1.3*

This would be a definite 5 stars is there was X-Plane 10.22 support. Please can this be looked into?

### 1/5 — Lame as he'll

*2013-12-15, version 1.1.3*

Where are the planes!

### 1/5 — Game

*2013-12-12, version 1.1.3*

It is in the game catigorie! Where's the game!

### 1/5 — Can't fly

*2013-07-26, version 1.1.3*

You can't fly

### 1/5 — Worst game I ever played its a piece alright it's a stupid game

### 5/5 — Dfsf is home

*2019-01-14, version 1.2.3*

Wrertreretd ersddtsree

### 5/5 — I never heard from it

*2018-04-15, version 1.2.3*

I never heard from it because  I haven’t loaded it.

### 5/5 — Thank you Asahi : )

*2015-03-28*

This app is highly recommended. I always use it with X-plane, specially when I'm taxiing. I wish there is something similar (lite) for FSX. Thank you Asahi for your generosity !

### 5/5 — Good

*2014-11-06, version 1.2.1*

Very good

### 5/5 — Amazing app,

*2014-09-18, version 1.2.0*

The perfect addition to my flight simulator, I can now watch my flights from my iPhone, I would recommend this to anyone thinking of doing VFR flying.

### 5/5 — SO USEFUL

*2014-08-16, version 1.1.3*

This app is a perfect add on to x - plane, as you can get a bearing on where you are going without relying on in-flight nav systems/Landmarks to succeed at flying to your destination. Definitely a go for anyone that enjoys a bit of x-plane.

### 5/5 — Perfect utility for using the map

*2014-07-24, version 1.1.3*

I use this app when I need to check where I am. To other people. You need to connect X-Plane for Mac/Windows/Linux to the IPhone or IPad to see planes and use it. It is not a game, only a utility

### 5/5 — Great!

*2013-07-12, version 1.1.3*

Excellent addon to my favorite flight sim!

### 5/5 — Great Utility!

*2013-07-01, version 1.1.3*

First off, this isn't a "game."  X-Mapper was designed as a navigation aid while flying in X-Plane.  And it does its job very well.  I find it especially useful for navigating airport taxiways.  Great job!

### 5/5 — Good

*2012-08-14, version 1.1.2*

Very good
