doesn't keep up with Foreflight on TFRs
Steveabcdef
Good for airspace situational awareness but, kind of a BIG deal is that it just puts blue circles every where there "COULD" be a open air TFR and it's up to you to figure it out if there actually is one or not.
Good app
Tupolev pilot
I like it. On the standard subscription we should at least be able to zoom in to the airport to see the different ramps and taxi ways. I also think that the scratchpad should be in the split screen.
Caution this program can crash
Fast Flyer
I have been using Garmin pilot successfully for several months now. I like the program but since the last update where they created a checklist feature this program can crash catastrophically. I think it may have to do with the checklists but I am not sure. The program becomes so corrupt that it is unable to send feedback to Garmin. The only way I know to fix the problem is to delete the program and reinstall it from the App Store. This has occurred several times, thankfully not while I have been in the air. I think I will use ForeFlight for my flying until Garmin gets this figured out.
Latest version crashes

Missing TERPS Legend and bugs
RML6635
I am an instructor and I use the app almost daily. For the most part I like it but every once and I while I am surprised at whats missing or how frequently an iOS update will break it. The other day I wanted to make a cold temperature correction to a DH and discovered that there is no TERPS legend section anywhere to be found. They do include an inoperative equipment page and climb table but thats it. If you need to look anything else up like circling approach distances or temperature corrections or what a symbol means you better carry a paper copy or have a PDF on your device. I called to confirm and was told that adding the legend will be in a future update. Another annoying problem is that the checklist function is broken in this (8.6.3) and the last version. No word on when it will be repaired.
Won't sync logbooks
Wacokid140
Got this app with intention to go digital after flying for 25 years with paper logs. Loaded them on my PC and my iPad 2 synced just fine but my iPhone 7 won't have anything to do with it. Also crashed several times when first setting up, seems to be more stable now.
Fuel and route mileage not working
Leonman35;(6
I have tried to reinstall this app after spending $100's on maps and now leg mileage isn't working and fuel burn is way off, just get for flight and get a real app.
