Works well with plane

A really creditable attempt to create an affordable simulator for a very complex instrument. It works well with xplane and is almost as good as the xavion product that costs about $2000. I hope you ignore the facile comments and continue to develop the product.
Fantastic training tool!

Works well with X-Plane 11 beta. So far I'm impressed with its functionality for the price offered. Excellent value and I'm planning to get a second iPad to tie in the MFD. With the optional bezel, this comes close to simulators costing tens of thousands of dollars. Keep up the great work!
Good for initial training

So far just running it standalone on iPad to get some advance practice on G1000 before flying it in the aircraft and it works well
Great refresher!

I use the app as a refresher to fly a G1000 172SP when I need to get up to speed. Love it!
Great app

I'm currently a student pilot and this app helps me simulate real world flying. Love it
Great G1000 sim!

I bought this app to simulate my G1000 interaction with the X-Plane C172S. While it was usable with the on-iPad "soft-buttons", the real thrill happened when you paired it with the hardware bezel. Suddenly it WAS a full-fledged G1000 trainer. You can buy it off the author's store. I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could, because the only thing it's short on is the Autopilot (AP) feature, meant to simulate the GFC700. Yes, the AP works but it scallops a whole lot (i.e. hunts for the level altitude that you set, or chases the glideslope by a LOT). If you're doing instrument training, this is a real boon but you have to hand fly the plane. VOR/DME approach practices are great, and the buttonology is 95% similar to the real thing. Don't expect it to fly every leg of your approach for you; it'll miss turns and blow through procedure turns. Oh one more thing, VNAV doesn't work, so you're on your own for those step-downs. It is, however, good practice for the pilot! (you!) Great training tool.
Excellent learning tool

The G1000 is a pretty complex beast you want to learn about and practice on the ground as much as you can before you use it in flight. Very easy to use, and I love the interaction with my sim (XPlane) which works flawlessly. I do think though that the MFD should have been included as it is part of the G1000.
