Paragliding Map

Love this app. I am not a paraglider, but a pilot and I like the clean interface and easy readability for windspeed or temperature. However, these features are not working now.

This app seems like it has some potential, but I can’t really sort out whether it’s worth keeping it—much less paying for it. It’s basically a map database with launch sites, LZ’s, webcams, and even thermals marked, as well as a future flyability (forecast) function ...theoretically. The problem is that the trial/free version has too many features disabled to assess it (basically all those I mentioned, plus no topo/terrain maps, satellite maps, etc.). So, unless you do a 7-day trial with automatic subscription renewal unless you cancel, you basically just have the simple map from Google with a bunch of pins in it. For someone with cursory knowledge of local launch sites, the trial version of this app has LESS information than simply going online to look at ParaglindingEarth or government maps and checking weather. So, as one could imagine, I’m DEFINITELY not going to go for a 7-day free trial with automatic subscription renewal just to see if it does anything more useful. I was actually interested in the webcams too, since I wasn’t aware of one of them at a local spot. If dev would do something like temporarily allowing all features of the app without forcing people to do that dumb 7-day automatic renewal thing, I’d say there might be a good thing here. I’ll never know because I’m not interested in getting roped into a subscription just to find out. *Delete*

I have been using the App for two years now and it has helped me greatly planning my travels for unknown flying sites and choosing depending on actual weather. I recently had an issue with the App and emailed Craig. He fixed the issue almost instantly and was incredibly helpful. This is a « must have » for paragliding pilots. Well worth the subscription!

It was very useful app for us to pick the right spots when we’ve flown in Austria last week. I also like that the app has a great support as all my questions and minor issues was answered and resolved in 12 hours.

This used to be the best. I even had a Pro subscription. Seems they got greedy. Raised the price to nearly 5/mo and apparently canceled grandfathered in subs. Now the app shows ridiculously invasive ads about every 60 seconds if you don’t have Pro. I understand developing costs, to charge 5/mo for the mostly user submitted info from this app. Not cool.
