Latest reviews of EFB - Charts and Weather for Aviation app for iPhone and iPad


Hi! I came across this app while exploring aviation apps. Does anyone know how if it will charge me automatically the month after the free trial... Thanks for the reply! Appreciate it
EFB
Trial version only covers US, very slow in opening, application not self explanatory
Piece of Crap
Pay the Price, for a BS map package that is pretty well USELESS to the Sport Pilot. If you live in the U.S. (Pay The Price) No maps available for Canada, the Greatest Country inThe World! Dont waste your time with this one.
Waste for Canadians
No plates for any Canadian airports, sad
Useless
This app is marginal at best and completely useless when outside the confines is the USA.
