LogTen Pilot Logbook

Works fine on my phone, which I use for data entry. Usually syncs ok with my computer. iCloud sync is stuck a couple of months behind on my iPad and it won’t update. It’s a problem that LogTen has a long history with unfortunately. Not really good enough for such an expensive subscription product. Will delete from the iPad and continue to use on the phone. Syncing aside, it’s a pretty comprehensive product, but it is very much overpriced.

$129 NZD for a 1 year subscription! App seems to work ok but $129 you must have lost your mind! A 1 off payment maybe, but a yearly subscription at this price is a joke! I’ll be sticking to pen and paper at these prices.

OK app for short haul, doesn’t cope well with heavy crewing situations. Overly complicated and very expensive. I really wanted to like this app and tried for quite some time to live with it and see if I could get over my dislike of its complexity but in the end just deleted it and went back to paper for its simplicity.

Absolutely love the app, has everything I could want in a logbook app. But you would hope so for the price that they charge, I started with log ten pro almost 6 years ago and even then paid a large price for the app then with X I now have to pay a subscription too.

You now have to pay monthly or yearly to continue using this logbook. Terrible idea. Already deleted from my devices! Seriously Coradine, what were you thinking?!

Fantastic app for logging most things (hours, approaches, aircraft). However the smart groups will drive you insane when trying to log anything else. PIC in type? Nope. ILS approaches in the last year? Nope. You’re better off printing out your logbook and counting them yourself.

LogTen Pro has sure grown a lot in the past 10 plus years since I started using it. I like the numerous features that help make logging flights easier. However, a few still quite annoying things remain. 1. I have been a user of an IPad Pro for the longest time and ever since iPad OS, I have been requesting and hoping they give the same functionality of their Mac app to their iPad OS app… This would be especially helpful because I do not have a Mac and the team does not have any intention of releasing a Windows LogTen version. This keeps putting me in a tough spot of wanting the advance features of the Mac App but having basically the big version of the phone iPad OS app which some of the UI isn’t even taken care of properly. 2. Additionally, I love keeping track of who I fly with.. However, I cannot make enough slots for all the Flight Attendants to be listed, (including the custom ones. ) Having unlimited crew labels would be a game changer. Additionally, Foreflight has a way to import a route that was flown into their logbook. I would like to see LogTen to do the same. However, the first issue of the iPad OS version of LogTen being nerfed is most critical. 3. Along with those issues the third issue is the watch app. It has issues of properly logging the UTC time and dates. Information gets flip flop and there is no way of manually putting in the airports in the watch and all must to be collected again when its saved to the app. And redoing the OOOI times in app to ensure the times are not flipped makes the watch app completely useless. It shouldn’t be hard. To capture UTC time as UTC time and keep it as UTC time. This can be fairly unnerving. For example, I was doing a flight from RSKI to KSFO, I put our out and off times of 0222Z into the watch and 0250Z into the watch and along with the values for landing of 1259z and an in time of 1305z in UTC. However, when i go to the app. It listed that i did those times in local so 0222 local time out 0250 off and 1259local on and 1305 local in which are grossly in accurate. In closing, is it a great app? Yes, if you just have an iPhone or if you have a Mac. Is it great for all these other features… a lot of these are lacking and make the process more aggravating.

This is the most expensive Logbook software on the market, but she will never speak to a human being when you need help. They have absolutely zero way to take your year end print out from common formats like Flica and get it into their system. They are charging outrageous prices, and still requiring you to enter everything one entry at a time they have no means of dealing with a PDF and once again, you cannot call and speak to a human being. Overpriced, overhyped, unhelpful scam of an app

Friendly, Intuitive and wonderful support for any issue.

Going back to my simple excel sheet. LogTen describes its support team as fantastic. That’s not my experience. Been trying to recover my old data for 3 days now. Need the info for a job application. Needless to say, I’m not pleased. ************** Update after Developer reply: Thanks for recovering my data. Damage done. Not a good look for my job application. I’m sticking to my Excel logbook. No fees, data under my control, works on my iPad, PC, and Android. I regret the 12 years of logging my flight time with LogTen. I’m in the process of manually copying each and every entry from LogTen to my Excel logbook. Tedious, but unfortunately necessary.
