  • Great app

    By im a pilot
    Everything works great. I like the 5 pages of scratch. One thing that needs a bug fix is that the ADSB traffic shows up as double. So when I’m in a congested area I see double the traffic then there really is.

  • No terrain profile button/view on iPhone

    By Desher_
    It would be great to add terrain profile button to iPhone app. It exists in iPad but absent for some reason in iPhone. However the feature is very convenient to estimate terrain profile on the route when planning.

    i have used this app for several years fly often always showed t f r restrictions real time since i operate out of and in the DCA NY and KILG wilmington (biden) air space. easy to use and great for flight planning. thr IFR extra is worth it too incase your panel goes off. even had one situation where my encoder was showing a decent while ifr, atc was alarmed and the altimiter and wass altitude read out on wing x showed my actual altitude so it was a no brainer. i have no complaints. like it a lot.

  • Don’t waste your money on ForeFlight

    This does everything for flight does and more and it’s simple and to the point and priced about west they all should be charging not what they think they can get pricing like outer company’s like for flight are doing

  • Where are the fuel prices?

    2
    By Simon Plus
    I love this app, but the fuel price option stopped working in the free version. Went for the $75.00 paid version. Still no fuel prices!? What do I have to do to get fuel prices?? If you change your policy on that, figure out a way to let users know please.

  • Update. Weather feed down again

    By CaptainStarwizz
    GEO referencing is down now. When they sent out the new database update, there apparently was an error that caused you referencing to fail.I called Support and it would seem the only support is over email. If you’re stuck in a place that has crappy Internet service you’re kind of screwed the bottom line is too many errors, too many issues, for this to be considered a professional pilot quality app.If you’re an occasional pilot and don’t mind some downtime in your EFB, then this app should be fine for you. However, if you are a professional, and your performance, depends on this app, running reliably, you may want to consider something else. I am. I’ve been using this app for many years, and for the most part has been super reliable, except for one aspect: every once in a while, real time airport weather, TAF‘s, METAR’s, go down, and you can’t get route weather. Well, it happened again and it’s been down for four days. I’ve called, I’ve emailed, but no responses. I use this thing for work and right now I have to rely on my students and my copilot. The razzing I’m getting from people who are using. ForFlight is amazing. If I can’t get this resolved by tomorrow, close of business, I’m going to have to bail on WingX and transition to something else. Update. I still can’t get a TAF or METAR. Screen shows 5 day old weather. Looks like me, my company, and my students will be moving to a different EFB.

  • Map is not working.

    Can not use the app with the new update OS 16. Map moves off the screen.

  • Seriously buggy interface, beware!

    I regret to have to write this unflattering review about my experience with the wing X app. Last week I downloaded it to my iPad as I am a student pilot. I attempted to purchase a database subscription and encountered an error message only after the purchase had processed through the App Store. I thought it was related to the subscribing email address not matching my Apple ID so correct that, purchased again, and encountered the same error message. It turns out that the moronic web developers who have written wing X did not first create a sign in or register screen, and they did not allow me to register for an account before excepting my purchase attempt. This is just crazy and unacceptable. I had to seek A refund for the first purchase through the Apple store. I have written to Hilton, the company that is responsible for the wing X app, and will see how they respond. In my opinion, the user interface is terrible, offensively bad in that it does not request user account creation or login before permitting access to interior screens including purchase selections. Hopefully they will fix this. If not, there are other excellent map and navigation apps for student pilots that I would consider using instead.

  • Can’t login to use it

    By rfreshour
    I can’t login using the trial period. It won’t come off the login screen. Too much crap on this screen. There is no Login button. I deleted it since I couldn’t get pass the confusing login screen.
