Aviation GPS vs Flymode Dashboard

Aviation GPS turns your iOS device into a professional-grade navigation instrument for pilots, flight training, and aviation enthusiasts — real-time bearing, distance, course deviation, and a full moving map with worldwide airport, navaid, and airspace data. Modeled on the panel-mount GPS navigators pilots already know, it pairs a clean FMC-style data display with a genuine moving map: pan, zoom, and declutter it like the unit in the panel, with HSI/CDI guidance, multi-waypoint flight planning, and a Visual Approach mode giving a 3° glidepath reference where there's no ILS. KEY FEATURES: • Moving map with 23-step zoom range, pan, continuous pinch-zoom, and multiple declutter levels • Optional traffic display with ForeFlight-style symbology — trend vectors, threat colors, relative altitude, tap for detail (advisory only; needs an internet connection) • Own-ship breadcrumb trail of your recent ground track • Worldwide airspace boundaries (Class B/C/D, Restricted/Danger/Prohibited, Military/MOA, and more) — tap any boundary for its name, class, and floor/ceiling • Airspace proximity alarms that flag boundaries before you enter them • To-scale runway rendering at close-in ranges, including parallel runways, colored by surface type • Visual Approach mode: lateral and vertical glidepath guidance to any runway, no ILS required • OBS mode for flying a selected course or radial to any waypoint • HSI/CDI course deviation indicator with auto-scaling sensitivity • Real-time navigation to 55,000+ airports and 10,000+ navaids (VOR, NDB, TACAN, DME) worldwide • Barometric altitude and vertical speed, blended with GPS for drift-free readings that respond instantly • Selectable GPS track smoothing (OFF/LOW/MED/HIGH) for a settled position, ground track, and groundspeed • Nearest (NRST) search for airports, navaids, and airspace • 6-panel data display with configurable layouts (2x2 to 2x4) and a customizable button bar • Compass modes: Track, Heading, or Auto-switching, plus RMI and HSI styles • Destination info with runway diagrams, elevations, and radio frequencies • Magnetic declination correction for magnetic bearings • Background layers: coastlines, rivers, roads, and cities, independently configurable • AutoZoom tightens map range automatically on approach to your destination • Smart search with autocomplete for airports and navaids • Optional downloadable database updates — no custom server, and the database still works fully offline • X-Plane simulator integration via XGPS, plus a demo/playback mode with a hand-flown, KAP 140-style simulated autopilot • Professional aviation typeface, portrait-optimized for cockpit and handheld use FLIGHT PLANNING: • Build routes with unlimited waypoints — airports, navaids, or custom coordinates • Automatic waypoint sequencing as you pass each fix, with turn-anticipation arcs • Per-leg and total distance and ETE, with cumulative distance per waypoint • DIRECT TO any waypoint at any time, with automatic return to the active plan • Coordinate waypoints with custom names for off-airway fixes, saved and reusable • Activate, suspend, or clear your plan at any time PROFESSIONAL FEATURES: • Great-circle bearing and distance, with true-to-magnetic conversion • ETA with timezone detection and local time display • Configurable auto-switching between track and heading modes • Barometric vertical speed monitoring with precision filtering • Vertical glidepath deviation gauge for Visual Approach mode • GPS coordinate display • Instant-response touch interface with visual feedback • Aviation-standard color coding and typography Includes a full worldwide aviation database on-device — no internet connection required for navigation, with optional data updates when you want them. The optional traffic display is the one feature that needs a live connection.

FlyMode is your ultimate offline flight companion, designed for pilots and aviation enthusiasts. Transform your iPhone or iPad into a functional glass cockpit dashboard that operates completely offline—perfect for Airplane Mode. Key Features: • Offline Maps: Navigate confidently with offline-capable maps and 3D terrain elevation data (requires downloading standard Apple Offline Maps). • Flight Dashboard: Real-time display of GPS Ground Speed (Knots/KMH), Altitude (Feet/Meters), and Magnetic Heading. • Barometer Integration: Uses your device’s built-in pressure sensor to display precise barometric pressure (hPa). • GPS Signal Quality: Monitor your GPS connection strength with accurate signal precision indicators. • Responsive Design: Optimized layouts for both Portrait (Grid view) and Landscape (Classic Cockpit view) orientations. • Privacy First: All data is processed locally on your device. No internet connection required. Whether you are flying a glider, a small aircraft, or simply traveling as a passenger, FlyMode gives you the flight data you need without relying on a data connection.
