Used every day by Brian
Great app. I use this every day as captain at my airline job. Very accurate and fast information. Only complaint is in translation of some lower visibilities are incorrect. For example, an actual METAR may report 2 1/2 SM but is translated to metric as 0.5 which is significantly lower causing the app to assign a LIFR designation to the report. Please fix.

Revised review: The latest update has resolved most of the problems noted by me and others, so I now give it 5 stars. This is my go-to app for preliminary flight planning. Two problems that persist: 1) the app incorrectly translates METAR data for flight rules into VFR, MVFR, IFR or LIFR. In the USA a ceiling can be either overcast or broken. This app assumes that only an overcast sky is a ceiling. For example, it will identify an airport as VFR when it has visibility of 6 miles and broken clouds at 900 feet. Broken clouds at 900 feet is IFR. 2) updating airport information crashes the app.

As a professional pilot, just what you needed. Would be nice if "raw data" could be set as default
