1. 4/5Amazing features and FREE

   I have used Garmin Pilot, ForeFlight, FlyQ, all which are excellent, but so is FltPlan Go. It has all the features that the basic subscriptions to the others have, all of which charge more for the eye candy, such as synthetic vision and AHRS (although it does have an instrument panel feature). FltPlan even has geo-referenced charts, approach plates and taxi diagrams that others charge extra for. Works with the widest range of ADS-B in devices, unlike ForeFlight which only works with Stratus and Stratux, and Garmin Pilot which prefers Garmin devices. FlyQ also works with a large variety of devices. The menu structure takes some getting used to, but that’s true for every app. Not as pretty or slick as the other premium apps, but has everything you need to navigate safely. And FREE, but recently purchased by Garmin, so who knows how long the product will remain free. A must-have app with good product support. I have it on all my devices, mostly as a backup, but I try to use it occasionally so I don’t forget how things work. My favorite EFB is ForeFlight, but that is Apple iOS only with only Stratus and Stratux (excellent).

2. 1/5Great potential. Incredibly slow, buggy, and lacks easy UI

   The app gives all the great info needed. As a charter pilot I use this app multiple times daily. If/when a competing app emerges, unfortunately I’d 100% use it instead as things stand. I feel like I can’t give more than one star until FltPlan fixes things. 1) 50% of the time the flight plan page works great, the other times it gets stuck saying “loading” after clicking “create Flight plan” 2) loading the nav logs. Where do I even begin? a) the nav logs take forever to download and if you try to download two at once you’ll usually get an error, or one will still show as not-downloaded (even if it actually was)... you can only check by refreshing the pulldown tab which again takes forever or pops up an error. It’s such a pain and every pilot I know gripes about this. 3) downloading procedures: another common area that results in an error or “unable to download” (again...error pops up even if you’ve successfully downloaded) 3 again) when downloading procedures you have to type the airport name/code... but if there were suggested airports from recent nav logs/flight plans, it would make things SO much easier. I don’t mean to be too harsh or rude, but FltPlan hasn’t seemed to change a thing in years. This app needs to be fixed before a better alternative comes around. I will gladly change the poor rating once the usability and errors are corrected. Update/response: ummmm no. I literally outlined all the problems for you already. I’m not going to copy and paste this exact same thing into an email.

3. 5/5This is a great app!

   To be very honest free is not always the best way to go. As I have been using all three flight plan apps this is a great way to get it all and save. It’s not some cheesy app selling you all kinds of stuff on the side. It really is doing what it was to designed to do and that is guide you safely to your destination. Now that Garmin Pilot has acquired this it can only get more interpreted for the long and best. Thank you fltplan go.

4. 1/5You get what you pay for

   Don’t waste your time downloading this app it’s full of quirks that are annoying at dashed off then frustrating Upon starting the app it pre-loads a random sample flight plan that has nothing to do with what you’re trying to accomplish The sample plan has to be deleted and you have to reenter your own flight plan every time you start the app. Even after deleting the sample plan on the website and preloading and saving your own this application continues to preload the sample flight plan regardless of how many times you delete it. Additionally although the application does have an option to show extended runway central lines it does not show which runway the extended centerline is for other apps like Garman Foreflight and WingX and Aerovie all show the runway numbers this app does not so you’re still left trying to figure out where to lineup.

5. 5/5Fltplan Go is BETTER than Foreflight !

   I use this app on my iPhone 7. I fly single-cockpit 180 knots VFR at 1,000 AGL below a Class B with 2 underlying Class C and 6 underlying Class D airports. All in mountainous terrain. The moving map TAC chart shows me exactly where I am with superb ground detail. By glancing at my iPhone I can keep my head out of the cockpit. Just what I need. Foreflight et al have way to much “high and IFR” stuff for quick safe low-level VFR navigation. KISS !
