User Reviews

SkyPro’s app is strong for cross-model support and rich GPS data, with firmware update capability and Bluetooth sharing across devices. However, recurring issues include pairing/recognition problems, stability crashes, firmware-update risks, device compatibility gaps between iPad and iPhone, and perceived slow legacy support. Overall, the core features and GPS reliability are praised, but reliability and vendor responsiveness are the main pain points.

Pros

Cross-model support: auto-detects XGPS150/160 and shows data for the connected device.
Provides rich GPS data and telemetry accessible through the app.
Firmware updates are manageable via the app (update workflow built into SkyPro).
Bluetooth GPS sharing: can broadcast GPS to multiple devices for shared navigation.
Strong GPS performance in demanding contexts (e.g., aviation) with good integration to flight apps.

Cons

Bluetooth pairing/recognition can be slow or fail, with occasional long pairing times or misrecognition of the device.
App stability is inconsistent: frequent crashes, including on splash screens or when accessing/sharing logs.
Firmware updates can brick the device or degrade performance, with multiple reports of unusable units after updates.
Inconsistent compatibility across devices (e.g., works on iPad but not on iPhone; some devices fail to be recognized by the app).
Vendor support appears slow or neglectful for legacy devices, leading to frustration about updates and continued compatibility.

Recent reviews

Yet another company resting on its laurels. I have an XGPS160 and app is garbage, device shows promise but they don’t update firmware and even with massive changes going on in the world of GPS over the last few years they don’t even have updated hardware to the XGPS160 to take advantage of it. So, save your money. The GPS in your phone is way better and this is another manufacturer not keeping up with the times. Update March, 2026: No new product releases from this zombie company, this POS still uses a USB mini connector in 2026 and app looks like it was written in 2005 by a high school student.

I updated the sky pro GPS status tool app and now it is not working with my Dual GPS receiver. It connects with the Dual GPS receiver and it shows battery and connection, but no satellites and no coordinates.
