Based on Sporty’s popular handheld E6B Electronic Flight Computer, the E6B app has been designed from the ground up to make the most of iOS on the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, and MacOS on Apple Computers. The software is based on the tried and true formulas and algorithms developed over the years by Sporty’s team of over 50 pilots.
Its pilot-friendly design makes quick work of any navigational, conversion or fuel problem and it also performs conventional arithmetic calculations.
The advanced timer/clock feature simultaneously tracks Zulu, Local and Home time zones. The timer counts either up or down, and will display an alert when reaching zero.

Sporty's E6B Flight Computer Reviews
Poor formulaes
One of the first calculations I did was Density Altitude. The answer was incorrect as I compared it to the formula from the AP3456. I have not had time to check all the other calculations but I would be very weary of this app for nav calculations.
Would be great to have conversion factors and formulas viewable
The calculator does what you’d expect, but it’d be nice to have a toggle to see the conversion factors and formulas used for some of the calculations for reference.
Buggy
Lots of little bugs unfortunately, double check if answers make sense before you fill out your navlog.
Good but…
The = button on iPhone will scramble negative the number for the first tap, second tap will convert back to a close by number but not original number.
I don’t know if it’s the calculation or Sporty’s ground school quiz answers are wrong. I got a different answer (off by 20 feet) when calculating density altitude.
I made sure to clear all history and continue to be off of the quiz answers.
Heading and groundspeed not working?
I deleted the app and reinstalled it to see if that would help. I enter the data but it produces nothing but zeros on the right side. This is a new issue. I hadn't previously had this issue seen it until about a week ago.
Sports E6B. Has at least one bug
Version 3.4.5 when finding density altitude the App fills in the answer (appears to be correct) but when the = sign is pressed an incorrect answer is displayed. I don’t trust the app. I expected more from sportys.
You guys are awesome
Your so cool you make school fun
Excellent resource
Great calculator/app. Use it all the time. Very user friendly!!
Great function, small bugs
While completing some tasks it gives the correct answer without hitting the “=“ key. Which is handy, however, when hitting the “=“ key the app fails and kicks you out. Other than that it’s a great resource.
..:
What kind of E6B app doesn’t have Weights and Balance!? This one. Unless you plug in a profile for a specific aircraft. Glad I wasted money on this app and it doesn’t have basic features.
