Unmaintained (does not connect with the vario)

Works great, and the layout of the screens is totally adjustable. I added screens for different types of Google Maps, simplified screens, etc. Q: Where do I find, and how to I open/review, the flight data after I started then stopped a flight? A: Start looking for a path in /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.bfv/files/, or look in the same path in which custom layout files are usually saved, and the file contents will be CSV format.

The variometer does not connect with the application while it works very well on a PC or with XCTrack, it is very unfortunate because the variometer works perfectly well so I do not recommend this version of application with the variometer BT_USB_V12_r4.
