METAR Reader Reviews
Awesome!
Love the website, love the app, love the idea! Helps me a lot with flight simulation. I just have a small request, could you guys create a iPhone 5 version? Would be really great and awesome!
Perfect!!
This app does exactly what it’s supposed to. I’ve never had any problems and I use it every day. Flawless experience.
OK, but Dissapointed
It works fine to decode METAR weather information but it doesn’t decode Terminal Area Forecasts and I can’t save anything to the Favourites.
DO NOT BUY IT!
I just bought this app since I also use the free web version. This app has not been compiled for the current OS (iOS 9.3.2), thus it does NOT work. It's a rip off albeit the low price. Either provide an update or take it off the Apple Store and give us a refund.
Unfortunately USELESS on IPh6sPlus (9.3.2)
As much as I love and trust the naked online version I am actually annoyed I paid for this but it does nothing. A wasted $0.99, even though the amount is very small still paying money for a totally useless app is despicable. For any user with the same device running the latest opsys: Caveat emptor [buyer beware]. Now it cost me less than a buck to not trust this developer. Not my loss, I assure you.
Terrible
Doesn't even work on my 6 plus... No functioning at all. Better get a refund for this
Doesn't give Pressure Altitude
Good looking app, but lacks features compared to similar offerings.
Not only for "wanna be" pilots
Nice app, simple to use. Pilot for 40+ years and find it to be a good tool. Not sure why other reviewer would think it is only for "wanna be pilots", whatever that means. Would give it 5 stars if it would open in landscape as well as portrait on iPad, usually use my iPad in landscape. Use my iPhone in portrait, so it is not a problem on iPhone. Have been using it frequently since purchase and find no other faults. Good app. Wish there were also the ability to get TAF's.
Wanna be Pilot need only purchase
This app is only good for a student pilot
