Favorites lacking, storage hog
rodcopter
I’ve tried quite a few flight apps, most called EFBs despite the fact that most are far from an “EFB”. I like this one but it is a compromise because it lacks the ability to edit the favorites list or a method to save for a long term, a plan that one uses frequently. It is also not possible to edit a temporarily saved “favorite”, you have to name it something else. The favorites list as is, has little to no value to me. More than 20 gig, yes, more than 20 gig of storage, how can that be? Another problem I encountered is that after creating an IFR flight plan, if you try to edit airways after the fact, it draws airway lines all over the place which the only way to fix is to start over. I found myself going back to skyvector to create and file my flight plans because I know they will be correct that way. Documentation is really poor, and that is a problem in itself. I really like the price as it is reasonable, but improvements need to be made. I’m going to continue using this app as I watch for these changes. Hopefully I can edit this review as changes are made. I uninstalled this app because it is not working for me, before the trial ended, yet I was still charge the annual fee. I would like refund.
Nice features, but freezes up

Stratus Insight is really slick and offers some incredible features for the money. However, in my limited experience utilizing the app, it seems very glitchy- freezing up as I tried to move between different screens. I run ForeFlight on the exact same iPad and have never experience these types of delays. Overall it is a terrific app, but I would not move away from ForeFlight until I’m confident that the app won’t freeze in flight. I’ll give it another try next year.
Scam

Beware If you download this app, they will charge you for an ongoing subscription without you realizing it. There’s no way to cancel this automatic renewal! A real scam! Don’t dare download the “free” trial!
Can’t rely on

I have tried to use on IPad Pro, and it crashed, locked screen and even after rebooting and restarting Insight, only thing that comes up is same locked screen. I have cancelled subscription.
Best Value

I’ve used every EFB out there. It is coded tightly, isn’t designed by committee and the dev is responsive to feature requests and bug fixes.
Do not download !!!

ADSB does not work with Garmin GDL and I was charged $9.95 less than a week after downloading. Was not 30-day trial period.
It’s a joke! Don’t waste your time.

There is no such thing “a 30 day trial “. It would not even let you look at it without subscribing.
