## Review summary

PilotPal is praised for its simple, clean interface and quick, in-app access to a full Airport Facility Directory, making airfield data readily available for flight planning and X-Plane users. Users appreciate its straightforward functionality and the promise of a centralized AFD. However, multiple reviews report persistent subscription-related problems: diagrams locked behind a paywall, status saying you’re not subscribed despite paying, and difficulty cancelling or stopping recurring charges. Additional feedback cites stability issues after updates, including apps that stop working. Overall, the app is valued for usability and data access, but subscription reliability and stability need improvement.

### Pros

- Simple, clean, easy-to-use interface.
- Brings the full Airport Facility Directory (AFD) into an app for quick access.
- Provides fast access to airfield data for flight planning.
- Supports use by X-Plane pilots and real-world flyers alike.

### Cons

- Cannot view purchased airport diagrams due to subscription/verification issues (diagrams locked out).
- Difficulty canceling/unsubscribing; recurring charges with no clear unsubscribe path.
- Stability problems: app stops working after updates or doesn’t work at all.
