RosterMonitor

Features
Read full description

Every duty on your roster, checked against EASA FTL before you fly it. RosterMonitor is the daily companion for airline crew — pilots and cabin crew alike. Connect your own crew-portal account and it downloads your personal roster — with up to 12 months of history if you want it. Every refresh re-checks the whole roster against EASA flight time limitations: duty periods, rest, days off, standby and cumulative hours. One glance at the Dashboard tells you when you report, what tomorrow looks like and whether anything deserves a closer look. WHAT IT CHECKS, AUTOMATICALLY • FDP limits, including planned extensions, commander's discretion and split duty • Minimum rest at home base and away, including reduced rest and the FDP reduction that follows it • Weekly rest of 36 h in 7 days, with the 60 h in 10 days fallback • Late/night-to-early transitions and consecutive night duties • Extended recovery rest with 2 local nights, and the 60 h variant after a run of disruptive duties • Time-zone compensation: local nights at home after long rotations, and rest away after a large time difference • Days off: minima per month, 13 weeks, 52 weeks and calendar year; the block of 4 consecutive days off; a free weekend every 4 weeks; and whether each OFF day is genuinely free • Cumulative block hours over 28 days, the calendar year and a rolling 12 months; duty hours over 7, 14 and 28 days and the calendar year • Standby rules, including FDP reduction after callout and standby away from base • Days off spent away from base, and days at base between trips • Roster changes that need your consent: short notice (under 48 h) or a replaced day off NOTHING IS A BLACK BOX Every finding shows the exact numbers, dates and windows the check is built on, and the findings that need it add a step-by-step calculation trail — so you can verify each result yourself. BUILT FOR THE LINE • Today and next-duty board with a live countdown to report time • Full schedule with sector-level detail, a UTC/local time toggle and rest bars measured against the minimum that actually applies • Cumulative limits board with margins and a day-by-day or month-by-month breakdown of each window • What-if planner: thinking about picking up an extra duty? Drop it into your roster and see what would break • Findings history ALWAYS WITH YOU A Live Activity through your duty day with the pickup time, a countdown to the next milestone and the rest filling up after the debrief. An alert whenever a refresh finds your published roster has changed. Spotlight search of duties and Siri Shortcuts. PRIVATE BY DESIGN All processing happens on your iPhone. There is no backend, no analytics and no tracking — we never see your roster or your credentials. Credentials are stored only in the iOS Keychain and sent only to the portal address you enter. An optional Face ID lock hides roster data in the app, on the Lock Screen card and in Spotlight. TRY IT FIRST Tap "Try with sample data" and explore the full app on a bundled sample roster — no account, no purchase. AN AID, NOT AN AUTHORITY RosterMonitor is an independent informational aid. It is not affiliated with any airline or crew-management system, and it does not replace your operator's official systems or your own responsibility as a crew member — it helps you catch what is easy to miss. SUBSCRIPTION RosterMonitor Pro is a monthly auto-renewing subscription that starts with a 7-day free trial. It unlocks the compliance checks; the sample roster can be explored without subscribing. The price for your storefront is shown on the purchase screen and on the App Store. Payment is charged to your App Store account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel it anytime in your App Store account settings.
