Great work XcSoar team!

Erich Wittstock

The most advanced soaring computer there is. So configurable, it might frighten some people off. Supports oodles of hardware. Easy to connect to Condor in order to configure in the comfort and safety of the ground and once configured: Great to use in the air! It works. Thank you to all the developers.

This app is the best free item I've ever used. Maps, Airspace, Glide computer. Able to be displayed on a 7" tablet is awesome to use in flight.

Excellent App for all Glider Pilots This is a great free application that runs very well and is great for cross country flying. It has helped many students at our club get started in cross country flying in a way they can easy afford. Thank you for contributing to the sport in such a big way.

Excellent app Can you make the start cylinder a choice between entry or exit. At the moment it is only exit. Cost me valuable time in a competition. 5 stars coming up

Cesar Fraga 8 July 2016

GT Altímetro não funciona mais. Nova versão não suporta GT Altímetro, não consegui configurar meu Altímetro com outro drivers para poder usar a função de variometer.

Gliding Simple /reliable for free?? Too good to be true

Greg Hemingway 22 June 2016

Awesome

Brian Stewart 24 May 2016

It does everything that all the expensive navigation devices do. Almost perfect. Vario could have quicker response, but that's probably due to the phone processor rather than the xcsoar software.

Evgeny Landyshev 18 May 2016

The best working and updated soft.

Jon Blacklock 25 March 2016

Brilliant Running on Nexus 6P. Connected via Androport to LXNav Mini FLARM so gets full IGC compliant GPS and baro data along with FLARM traffic overlayed on moving map via IOIO port. Excellent software that is reliable and easy to use while being very powerful.

Luciano Davolio 15 March 2016

Someone knows why this app. Fails in Samsung tab4? Works great in every other devices, the program shut down after several minutes

Dave Martin 12 March 2016

Great. Works great on Samsung S6. Visible in flight, responsive, updated frequently. Added bonus of including livetracking. Still undecided whether on my phone or on a Kobo works better, but tending towards my phone.

Keith Gwynne 30 March 2016

Running on Samsung Galaxy Tab A with unassisted GPS. 9" screen is great. Over 6 hour runtime without issue

Victor Berchet 15 May 2016

XCSoar is packed with features and not that hard to use at the same time. Very useful for air spaces and live tracking.

Phil Dolling 18 May 2016

Good app Use it all the time

P Casti 10 December 2015

Use it all the time This app is great. I use it all the time on very long saiplane fights. Runs on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 no problem with the on board GPS. Logs my flights and I upload the IGC files to the OLC (Online contest).

Beat Zysset 4 April 2016

Perfect Have used this app for some time. Works always perfectly. Helps me in flight. Very thought out, sophisticated interface. Thank you all

Aaron Stanford 14 February 2016

Best aero app Initial configuration is rime consuming. Feature set is superb

Biscuit112 DT 3 March 2016

A proven solution! I have used this program for 5 years and it just keeps getting better.

Beyers Steynberg 4 May 2016

Working fine ! Adding waypoints manually is still a problem.

Fábio Louback Rohr 2 October 2015

Non d+ Uso a bastante tempo perfeito

vahid amel 25 September 2015

In a nutshell : super Smart

Dmitri Fedorov 23 June 2017

Great tool for paragliding.

Lloyd Bailey 27 August 2015

XCSoar, the greatest! This is the best free app for flying on the planet. But Top Hat has a better interface.

Chris Snyder 26 August 2015

I love it and use it on every flight. Most of my flights are short and it automatically breaks the flights into separate IGC files so I can upload to OLC. It took me less than an hour to get the terrain file and airspace files running.
