Review summary

The Paragliding Map app is highly praised for ease of use and a wealth of site/weather data, plus strong developer support and crowd-sourced contributions. However, multiple reviews cite a very high subscription cost, billing headaches, unreliable weather data, outdated site information, and ongoing performance issues, creating a tension between its value as a planning tool and reliability concerns.

Pros

Easy to use and intuitive interface.
Provides rich, practical information about paragliding sites, wind, weather, and flyability.
Crowd-sourced data with active developer support (Craig) and strong community involvement.
Excellent for discovering new sites and planning flights; widely used as a go-to tool for travel.

Cons

Very expensive subscription and recurring billing concerns (perceived poor value).
Weather/forecast data and take-off weather information are often unreliable or inaccurate.
Site data and webcams are not consistently updated, leading to outdated or mismatched information.
Performance and reliability issues in the app (slow loads, crashes, or failing to start).

2025-06-20	Dr*****	For the most part, it's a great App. I have a few minor niggles, it would be nice to be able to sign in across different devices using 'google-account', instead of resetting password and having to sign in again on both devices (I have a 'Droid' phone and iPad mini which I use also). The images & webcams won't always report the actual flying location, as that would be dependent on an actual webcam being available at that location, not really a niggle, just a be-advised NB for new pilots 😁👍
