Great for flight planning
Jewel on Ice
An instructor recommended this to me to save time on flight plans. While you still need to know how to use the old fashioned E6B, this is such a great tool to have at your disposal. It is simple to use and so far has been accurate. I so learning about all it's features but so far, it's great.
Clock inop

The clock widget has three clocks that all show the same time; they are labeled to show Zulu, local, and home. Correction....I'm an idiot. Fixed under the main settings page. :)
Needs update for iPhone 6+

Please update this app do that it's optimized for iPhone 6+ screen with landscape mode.
Fantastic for sim pilots too

Although this was made to help real world pilots. I've found it increases my enjoyment of flight sim aircraft a lot as well. The descent functions alone are well worth the cost for me. I don't even really pay attention the FMS suggested VNAV anymore on one of my aircraft, this is more accurate! Im very happy, thanks a lot!
Flight functions work well, but...

The basic calculator on both the iPhone and iPad version drives me nuts. Some keys number keys as well as the arithmetic keys won't work sometimes. I find myself repeating basic problems over and over. Other calculator apps on these platforms work fine so I know it's not an operator issue. UPDATE. THE CALCULATOR IS STILL CRAP
Doesn't Load

As the title says, the app will not load at all. I have tried at least a dozen times to use it but have never been able to.
Solid, easy

Way better than other e6b options. My one gripe and feature request is that the Next, Previous, and tapping an entry field select the full value so I can enter a replacement on the keyboard without hitting the C button every time to clear, since flight planning involves keeping some values the same while changing others for similar calculations.
Good phone app but watch app is useless

I love the iPhone app and use it as my primary e6b. Yesterday I got the Apple Watch and was excited to be able to use functions there instead of having to break out the phone. NOPE. The only thing the watch app does is conversions. When I'm flying, I don't need to convert avgas gallons to pounds, I need to be able to calculate heading, distance, and fuel burn to my divert location! Soooo disappointed that the Functions were left out of the watch app.
Worth it!!!

This app does everything it says it does. It has not given me any problems. Best $10 I have ever spent.
