Users appreciate responsive developer support and continual updates. However, there are concerns about the app stopping flight logging when running in the background, GPS connectivity reliability, limited in-app search capabilities for pilots or groups, and the lack of sectional charts. Overall, it's regarded as a top choice for paramotor and ultralight pilots, with some room for improvements in stability and features. ### Pros - Excellent flight tracking and accurate recording of flight paths, including takeoff and landing detection. - Strong community features allowing pilots to track friends, create groups, and communicate. - Provides useful real-time flight data such as altitude, wind direction, fuel status, and traffic alerts. - Responsive developer support and regular feature updates. - Free tier with lots of functionality and reasonably priced premium options. ### Cons - App sometimes stops logging flights when running in the background or when switching to other apps like the camera. - Occasional GPS connectivity issues reported by multiple users. - Lacks integrated search for other pilots, groups, or launch sites within the app. - No sectional chart maps or advanced ADS-B integration mentioned by users. - Some users find the subscription cost ($40/year) a bit high. ## Similar extensions and apps - [The Paragliding App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.theparaglidingapp) — 197 users - [XC FLY](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.xcfly.app) — 1,405 users - [XCLogs Tracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.xclogs.tracker) — 9 users - [ParaGlideXC](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.paraglide.xc) — 22 users - [pgpilot](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.pgfly.app) — 591 users - [WeGlide Copilot](https://chrome-stats.com/d/org.weglide.copilot) — 3,871 users - [ParaTrack](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.karol.paratrack) — 19 users - [XC Guide](https://chrome-stats.com/d/indysoft.xc_guide) — 15,634 users - [Sidekik: Paragliding, Hike&Fly](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.armadaar5org.sidekikapp) — 1,592 users - [IGC Viewer](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.shollmann.igcparser) — 21,528 users, 4.67 / 5 - [Paragliding Recorder & Logbook](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.paraglidinglogbook) — 8,287 users - [Paragliding Logbook](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ruarddebruyn.flogger) — 1,112 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.flygaggle.flutterapp)
