Great potential. Incredibly slow, buggy, and lacks easy UI – FltPlan Go for iPhone Review

The app gives all the great info needed. As a charter pilot I use this app multiple times daily. If/when a competing app emerges, unfortunately I’d 100% use it instead as things stand. I feel like I can’t give more than one star until FltPlan fixes things. 1) 50% of the time the flight plan page works great, the other times it gets stuck saying “loading” after clicking “create Flight plan” 2) loading the nav logs. Where do I even begin? a) the nav logs take forever to download and if you try to download two at once you’ll usually get an error, or one will still show as not-downloaded (even if it actually was)... you can only check by refreshing the pulldown tab which again takes forever or pops up an error. It’s such a pain and every pilot I know gripes about this. 3) downloading procedures: another common area that results in an error or “unable to download” (again...error pops up even if you’ve successfully downloaded) 3 again) when downloading procedures you have to type the airport name/code... but if there were suggested airports from recent nav logs/flight plans, it would make things SO much easier. I don’t mean to be too harsh or rude, but FltPlan hasn’t seemed to change a thing in years. This app needs to be fixed before a better alternative comes around. I will gladly change the poor rating once the usability and errors are corrected. Update/response: ummmm no. I literally outlined all the problems for you already. I’m not going to copy and paste this exact same thing into an email.
