Needs updated... *update to post* They fixed the problem very quickly!
Needs some improvement

Nice to have an easy to use digital E6B but the density altitude calculation isn’t precise. Its always off by at least 100’
Density Altitude
Wing Commander Hanna
Unable to calculate density altitude given pressure alt and temp. You need indicated alt, baro and temp. The pressure alt cannot be adjusted.
Excellent! Just need complication for Apple Watch face
Motambo1
I use this app a lot and absolutely love that it is even useable on the Apple Watch! I just hope that eventually the developers will make it so that I will be able to add it as a complication on my “flying” watch face so that I can pop right into it quickly.
Does not work

Anytime I select a function, the menu icon disappears. I have to force close the application to get the menu back which of course delete whatever calculations I was working on. This app is not worth a single penny.
Apple Watch display needs improvement
@John T
I had hoped to use the Apple Watch app, but the display only shows the top half of the numbers. Perhaps this is because I have the original Apple Watch? I also find the process of entering numbers to be cumbersome. If I click on an item to change the value, I first have to backspace out the current value before entering the new value. I’d prefer that it just let me start typing the number right away instead of going through those extra steps. But I’m happy that this app is available. I haven’t used it much yet, but I’m sure it will be useful.
Can't save data
rbg214
The app has a lot of features, but it is ridiculous that you can't save any of your data if you switch to another part of the app. it seems like it would be so easy to save an aircraft profile so that when it comes time to calculate weight and balance all you have to do is update the aspects that have changes, e.g. useful load.
Good app but missing couple of features
Kev's Opinion
Universal iPhone and iPAD apps is great! The User Interface is clean and clear compared to other E6B I've purchased for iOS. No time calculations function compared to other iOS App I have, It think many user has mentioned this in various reviews. If the functions menu can be viewed in portrait view on iPAD as the landscape view on iPAD then it will improve the ease of use in flight when iPAD is a kneeboard.
Great design and calculations, but lacking in other areas

The best thing about this app is that it looks great, lots of calculations, and easy navigation. And the final calculations automatically update when an input is changed. However, the buttons (numbers/symbols) are way too small. There is a lot of wasted space (amongst other things a big sportys logo at the top). They could definitely fix this. It is especially apparent in the calculator- micro buttons compared to iPhone calculator. This is such a small issue, and i know that sportys has the resources to fix it. However, it doesn't seem like they are updating this app with new features. Not cool at all for a $10 app. No updates is why I give this 3 stars. A lot of other reviewers have important ideas and fixes as well that should be addressed. This app might just be dead(no real updates)
