I wish I could rate higher – SkyCharts XC EFB Review

I've done my best to support this developer. I'm a flight instructor who has suggested this app to my students for years. I'm not sure why he decided to completely change the app, but it is absolutely for the worst. It is about as un-user friendly as you could possibly get. I have flown with the old app all over the country and way down to the south tip of the Bahamas. It used to be that if I needed an approach plate or airport diagram, I could bring up the airport and click on what I needed. It downloaded it right there in seconds. Unfortunately, the old version no longer exists. I paid $4-$5 for this new app, so my wife and I could take a trip. Nothing on it worked. We couldn't bring up a plate without downloading several states. After several attempts and an hour per attempt, they never did finish downloading. We had to make the trip without a working app. Several dollars well spent. Also, the auto renew on the subscription made me mad. I'm all for the guy making money, but this is ridiculous. I had to google the way to turn off the auto-renew, and it wasn't easy. Of course, Apple makes it as complicated as possible.
