Pilots Atlas

Stopped working after most recent update. Screen freezes at cloud features splash screen. Do you test your software before releasing?

I bought this very expensive app so that I could have a Worldwide flight atlas to use offline in the cockpit. They have now brought out new mapping that is a new very expensive subscription based system with mapping files so ridiculously large that I can only fit individual parts of the World on my iPad so of no use to me. Every time I open the app now to use the classic mapping it hassles me to buy the subscription I don’t want. I already paid a lot of money and don’t want to pay a subscription as well to have 300GB of files on my iPad. I have no idea why the files are so big but only have a need for simple mapping for use when I am flying. The App is for pilots who need offline mapping - we do not have super high speed internet whilst in the aircraft! The developers are totally clueless about their customer base. No means no so stop asking me to buy the subscription - I already paid for offline maps. Will cut my losses and delete this app. Money wasted. And what the hell is Vector mapping?

I use this to help me identify landmarks etc when I’m flying about. Love it.

I use the app for a long time , it always has been great but recently the app has been getting frozen 100% of time whenever I use the new maps, beside the app keeps informing me that i have the classic version even after the downloads. Any update coming soon ?

Despite updating this app and claimed bug fixes, I still have to re-download over 24gb of maps just to use the blasted thing. Used to be really good, but now it’s just frustrating

The atlas keeps crashing on startup on my iPad Air 10.2. I upgraded to 10.3.3, the app can't still be loaded. I removed the app, cleared the ipad's cache, shutdown, restrart the ipad, launch the atlas.... and it still crashes. I tried to contact you directly via your website to avoid such review, but you captcha is not working, and no email can be sent. Any fix you are currently working on, or am I the only one ? Regards Raphael

2016- now unusable, can't download maps, they become corrupt and taking up several GB on my iPad now. Please Fix. DO NOT BUY UNTIL THEY FIX THE APP

So I bought the map, and now it's unusable and they want more money. Don't bother

Lack of functionality. Over priced. Lack of political maps for PA. Poor ability to draw route. It's worth about a third of the price.

I cannot recommend this app enough. I had every edition of Absolute's paper Pilot Atlases and they were great. This digital version is awesome and keeps getting better. Just found out I can even draw circles around airports so one can show adequate and ETOPS limits. You can put in ETPs etc. Brilliant. It also has lots of good database info-airports, navaids, mountains, POIs etc. Purchasing the whole world in HD seems pricey at first but I think, well worth it. The paper ones, as I remember, were around £25 and that was for either the U.S., or the rest of the world which was expanding with each new addition but was not the rest of the world. If like me you had both, it was £50 anyway, which is roughly the same as this app and now you really do have the whole world and can do so much more. It is becoming a really useful tool. The Captains Corner is a little fidgety in that there are now ICONS for each topic or item instead of turning pages but some of these are mini apps- conversions, fuel uplift, gradient calculator. In short, lots of good stuff as in the paper version but even more. The only thing that seems to have gone missing is the holding info but maybe I have not found it. A basic political map in the Captain's corner similar to the one at the beginning of the paper one would still be useful for "routing over" PA's. Would thoroughly recommend. Keep up the good work, Dankeschön!
