Users appreciate the FAR/AIM app's ease of navigation, digital convenience, and useful layout for professional pilots. However, multiple reviews mention significant issues like unreliable highlighting, limited search capabilities, outdated information, broken links, and missing features such as cross-device sync. These cons hinder study and operational use despite the app's generally positive aspects.

2024-10-17	Jo*****	No (obvious) way to edit search text, and no search history. So if you misspell a search, you must retype the whole thing. Trailing space in search text (added when you tap a suggested word) is erroneously included in the search string and should be automatically trimmed. Section Tables of Contents, as in the printed version, are not included. The "Highlights" page is blank. Given these deficiencies, the GOVREGS app, with it's own minor frustrations, works equally as well, and it's free.
