Over 100 aviation functions, conversions, and utilities, including functions that you won't find in any other E6B. Each function uses the correct scientific formula to ensure accuracy. Other E6B apps rely on rules of thumb that can be up to 10% off. The most comprehensive, accurate, and easiest to use E6B on the App Store.

An E6B flight computer is traditionally an analog device resembling a combination slide rule and slide wheel that performs calculations specific to aviation. For example, an E6B can be used to calculate heading and groundspeed after taking into account forecast winds. An E6B is also used to calculate data used for performance planning such as density altitude. Our version goes beyond the analog E6B and even beyond all other E6B apps by including functionality to calculate time, rate and radius of turns, pivotal altitude (great for flight training use), and more.
Virtual VOR
This navigation app allows users to place a VOR (VHF Omnidirectional Range) beacon anywhere on a map. It provides VOR-DME and ADF gauges for flight simulation or training purposes.
- Place VOR beacons anywhere
- VOR-DME gauge display
- ADF gauge display
- Customizable VOR placement

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Virtual VOR at Free against FlightReady E6B's $7.99. Virtual VOR also leads on iOS requirement (16.2 vs 18.6). FlightReady E6B's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On review sentiment, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Virtual VOR is free to download; FlightReady E6B costs $7.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
FlightReady E6B holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FlightReady E6B has 1.1K ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 85% and 86% positive.
FlightReady E6B ships an update every 3 months, Virtual VOR every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and August 23, 2026 respectively.
