Made it to building my first flight plan in the app and the UI is so bad that I gave up. EDIT: I have used this more and been able to get past some of the quirks. The UI is still cumbersome to use and needs polishing. There is something about the flight plan entry field that makes my password manager think it is a password field. This doesn't happen with other non-password forms in other apps that I use.

Great on IPad, weak on Android. No Stratus/Stratux support (in FLT Wx, Traffic), Glide Range circle, Terrain, Safe Taxi, Open Street Maps.... I'm sure there is more missing, not much here better than the Ipad and much that is worse. Dissapointed but still usable for nav on the Android platform. Keep hoping the fairly numerous updates will fix one or more of these, but they address anything but, less needed stuff.

The app itself is great, I've really enjoyed using it. Supporting Android and iOS is great because now you're not locked to specific hardware for your phone or tablet. The biggest letdown, and reason I'm switching to ForeFlight after enjoying a year with Pilot, is the complete lack of support for any ADS-B hardware that isn't Garmin. My club aircraft has Stratus, and I'm not going to change/buy hardware for the sake of my EFB, not sure why anyone would. Hope this changes.

I am a helicopter pilot, and the update in October made this app USELESS. Crashing while flying, no more SynVis or split screen view. The developers listened to the new issues we were having via bad reviews and fixed the problem as of November 1st. In less than a week! I just changed my review from 1 to 5 stars. This is the best app for pilots. Thank you for listening to the reviews and making proper changes quickly. Happy flying everyone. 🚁🛫🛸

Constantly hangs during FAA Navigation Data Download/ Update. When it happens, the only fix is uninstall and redownload. The hang happens very sporadic. Sometimes I can use it for weeks with no problems. Other times it happens each time app is opened. I have had subscription for 3 years and this just started about 6 months ago. Please fix. 5 Star if it gets fixed. Im using Galaxy Note 9 with most current updates. It does not happen on my Ipad.

Poor quality. Did not use the app for couple of months, renewed subscription and noticed how much slower the app has become. Same hardware that I used before, but now app is painfully slow on both phone and tablet. Chart resolution seems higher than before, but slowdown is unbearable. Sometimes app gets stuck at startup while "downloading required downloads". I had to delay one flight by about an hour just to reinstall the app on tablet and phone because both were stuck on the start screen.
