  • Great App!

    This is an amazing free app to record flights, I’m amazed that you can also export GPX file for free given that the others gps app would charge for that functionality. The only thing that doesn’t work well is on Apple Watch. 1. If I click stop flight on my watch, the flight record will be lost and no where to be found in the flight log. 2. If I manual start a flight using my watch, the flight won’t be recorded even if I click stop on iPhone afterwards. I figured the only way to work for now is to let it automatically start and click stop button on iPhone. I would really appreciate it if I can also click stop on my watch and allow the flight to be recorded. Overall great app, and thank you for putting all the effort in making it!
  • Does this really work?

    Like SuperDave O says … nothing is recorded? Coming over from Android so I was excited to start using this. I started the app and put it in my harness pocket. Took off and I did my short flight and landed. I could see all the data that it recorded. Cool, I’ll look at it later with a friend. I didn’t see an “off” switch, so it wouldn’t keep running while not in the air, and I just swiped the app, up, and closed the few apps that were open expecting that it would save the info. When ready to view the data I opened the app and there was no data (flight log) saved? What did I do, or not do, correctly? Luckily I remembered enough of the data for my log book spreadsheet. Cool app but not if it doesn’t save anything? Explain please? TIA!
  • Hasn’t recorded anything?

    Not sure if it’s me or not. But the app looks great. But when I try and use it, I open, hit start flight. I fly come back and look for any recorded flights , and nothing. Yes I’ve watched the video, I’ve removed the app and reinstalled. Still nothing. Anyone else have this issue? I have other flight apps that work just fine, so not sure. I would like to give this one a try

    Can you please make this app able to export the flights and info into a GPX or IGC file so we can use upload them to websites like Ayvri. This app is so much better than the rest because of its simplicity and watch functionality. This is the only thing missing. Please make it a paid feature. Thank you so much for making this
  • It’s a great app.

    Really love this app. The only thing that really don’t work for me was the app in the Apple Watch. Not because the app. I’m trying everything to keep the app always on. But the watch always goes to sleep mode, If I want to wake up my watch have to release my riser to could get my watch in front of me to could wake up the watch. Maybe this is not directly an app functionality, but should be good if maybe with a shake could wake up. Thanks to much!!
  • Flight info is nice

    But it didn’t log my flight last night for some reason. I know it was running but after I landed and ended the flight with my watch I went to review the flight and there were no logged flights. Not sure why that happened. Otherwise a great app, the info it displays on my watch is fantastic!
  • Thank you! Just one improvement please!

    Really love this app. Please drop the zoom slider and go with pinch to zoom. I keep trying to do that because it’s iPhone native. Everything else is great! Love making notes and watching my course.
  • Great application

    Really simple to use and gives you all the details you need about your flight Note to developers Would love to be able to trim the flight without affecting the original flight Also would be great if it could detect the flight itself without all the wait prior and post And how about an export flights to excel for example with remarks option so one can add any details or notes to the flight

    Won’t get past gps fix screen, so I can’t even test UPDATE got it working by being in a big open field. Works great once it acquires signal.
