Description

FlyQ+ EFB is a top-rated aviation app because it makes your flying easier and safer by thoughtfully integrating powerful features in a way that minimizes the number of screen taps and uses larger fonts to increase readability. New features such as a graphical weather briefing, ability to download both current and next data cycles, and a navlog that expands/collapses airways, SIDs, and STARs make flying easier than ever before! The Global Digital Map shows airports, airways, airspace, navaids, and waypoints from all around the world. Text rotates so it's always right-side up and the level of detail adapts to the zoom level. Our exceptional "4D Predictive Weather" system uses a Timeline and Altitude Slider to help you analyze weather at different times - both past and future - and at different altitudes. 17 weather layers from both the Internet and ADS-B (e.g. Radar, Icing, Turbulence, PIREPs, Winds Aloft, Surface Winds, Surface Analysis, Satellite, and more), many tied to the Timeline and Altitude Slider, give you unprecedented pre-flight and in-flight safety. Supports more than 20 ADS-B and in-panel devices: Stratus 3, Avidyne, Dynon, Stratux, and more. The exclusive Augmented Reality (AR) feature provides situational awareness you'd previously only seen in sci-fi movies.  The Slingshot wireless system means FlyQ+ supplies maps, plates, and apt diagrams wirelessly to certified systems from BendixKing. The Visual Logbook and Post Flight Playback / Analysis Graphs add a whole new dimension to your flying. Optionally connect with your friends to "see" and even replay their flights. CFI's can track student progress and remotely send endorsements. Other key features include split screen, 3D synthetic vision, plates on the map, more than 4,600 airport diagrams, rich Documents support, extended runways, distance measurement, fuel prices, NOTAMS, wind-optimized flight planning, and plates for Mexico and Central America. NEW! NaviGuard GPS anomaly detection guards against GPS spoofing and jamming > Maps Your Way + Digital, 2D maps, 3D Syn Vis, Augmented Reality + Sectionals and IFR charts + TACs + Photo, road, terrain maps + 17 Weather Layers + Flight Track + Fuel Prices + TFRs + Obstacle and Terrain Avoidance + ADS-B Traffic and Weather + Extended runways with right-pattern indicators + Procedures on map + Rings / Extended Course Line + CAP grid + Heli and Gulf of Mexico charts + VFR Flyways + Syn Vis includes HITS boxes, EFIS display, TAWS, Obstacles, and AHRS support.

Exchange flight plans with Dynon SkyView, Avidyne, and Aspen 6. Practice with X-Plane or MS Flight Sim / Prepar3D > Weather Amazing "4D Predictive Weather" uses a Timeline and Altitude slider to make detailed pre-flight and in-flight analysis easy. The Graphical Wind Optimizer uses red and green bars to show the headwind or tailwind at different altitudes. Also includes an extensive gallery of weather images. > Airport Information The Airport screen concisely shows key operational info, sat images, and rwy diagrams on a single screen. Weather, approach procedures, A/FD, and FBO info are just a tap away.

  • INSTRUCTORS AND STUDENTS...

    This is my third year using FlyQ. Actually, my students know how to access the many features of this app more than I do. I suppose I am an "old school" instructor teaching and using the ole' plotter and E6B. For each new student I acquire I have always steered my students to FlyQ. Beyond the plotter and E6B having my students equipped with FlyQ gives me piece of mind that when it comes to the solo cross countries for my students I know they have a tremendous resource at their fingertips. In addition, progressing to the instrument ratings FlyQ is another valuable resource that I want to have. There's not too much more I can say except make the investment and you'll never leave home without it. GREAT JOB GUYS AND GIRLS AT THE FLYQ HEADQUARTERS!

    I really appreciate that the development team keeps refining and improving the usability and functionality of this app. I have been happy with FlyQ from years ago and it keeps getting updated and freshened to add features.
  • Are they even open anymore?

    I have emailed 3 times and called twice over the last two weeks to ask about their CFI discount and have not received a reply. Not worthy of my hard earned money…
  • Shady Company

    Don’t give this company any of your hard earned money. They are dishonest and cheat loyal customers. Greedy private equity at its finest. Go with one of the other EFBs. ANY OTHER. If you subscribe they will most likely change their name to FlyQ++ and say your subscription is locked at current features and offer for you to pay more for something you already paid for. Would a company really actually do this? The answer is YES, they already did. Why wont they do it again to you? You have been warned.

  • What a joke

    Honestly it is completely a joke that this company sold a lifetime subscription to a product with updates included and then pulled the rug out of under all of the subscribers just a few years in. Now they say we can still use the same app! What a blessing but shame on apple for not enforcing their developers policy about lifetime subscriptions and not removing this from the App Store. Normally this app was a 2 star at best due to a significant amount of less features and ease of use. Now it is a solid 1/2 star and really deserves less due to a shady company who can’t be trusted.
  • Strange definition of “Lifetime”

    By Whatevernameisnottaken
    I have been a subscriber for years, and took advantage of a premium “Lifetime” subscription offer in 2019, which gave the company an infusion of capital. Now, the company is reneging on that verbal contract and attempting to sunset those who paid for lifetime. Understand the ethics of the company you are considering supporting before they’ve got your money. I do not recommend this product as a result. There are too many other good ones on the marketplace, including one supported by AOPA, which is offering a discount to those misled by Seattle Avionics.
  • Change in business model.

    Initially bought the product at a higher one time fee for a lifetime subscription. Now they have changed their plan and forces their customers to a yearly subscription if they want to access newer features. Very misleading business practice.

    I love the app. Why did I buy it? Um… I’m a rusty pilot and I hope this will be the spark to get back up there!
  • Wonderful tool

    I’ve been flying with FlyQ for over 10 years and am truly pleased with its features and performance. I have a full glass cockpit, but when it comes to navigation, I treat my iPad with FlyQ as primary.
