As a Commercial Pilot and CFII, I was hoping this was going to be a great app, having current A/FD information and current handbooks, manuals, ACs, etc. readily available at my fingertips. Then I discovered that many of those publications are out of date; e.g. AIM change 3 is current but the app shows Change 2 as being the latest version. I could probably forgive this oversight since it was only superseded about a month ago. But the app shows Aviation Weather AC-00-6A as the latest version while AC-00-6B has been current since August 23, 2016. Likewise, Aviation Weather Services AC-00-45H has also been current since November 14, 2016 and Change 1 was issued on January 8, 2018, yet the app still shows AC-00-45G being the latest. FMH-1 was revised in 2017 but the app still has the 2005 version for download. I'm not going to go through the entire list since life is too short. So much potential yet this app comes up short. I'll just keep downloading and updating them manually and be confident that I have the latest versions. Also, because of the massive amount of data these apps use, they need to have an option to store that data on the SD card.

App used to be great... used it daily. Now, for the last several months, it crashes upon opening. I've sent numerous reports, feedback, AND email with no answers whatsoever. I've removed the app and reloaded several times, but that doesn't fix the problem. Frustration would be an understatement!

Steven, we exchanged several emails and as per your last email on 12/15/2020 you indicated everything was working well. Also, this is a free app and I work on it in my free time.

The simplicity of this app makes it wonderful to use. I've never seen another such app on Android or iOS that beats it. Browse the Library and brush up on your aviator knowledge during lunch or other downtime. Try it for a week instead of using Facebook as your "I'm bored" goto app. :) 2019 Update: Years later, this is still my go-to for fast weather lookups. Great app.
