## Description

FlyQ+ EFB is a top-rated aviation app designed to make flying easier and safer by reducing screen taps and using larger fonts for readability. It includes a glide ring, graphical weather briefing, dual data cycles, and a navlog that expands to show airways, SIDs, and STARs for safer, more efficient flights.

Its Global Digital Map shows airports, airways, airspace, navaids, and waypoints worldwide. The 4D Predictive Weather system (Timeline and Altitude Slider) analyzes weather at different times and altitudes across 17 layers. AR provides enhanced situational awareness, Slingshot links wirelessly to cockpit systems, and the Visual Logbook with post-flight playback enables sharing and endorsements. With 4,600+ airport diagrams, on-map procedures, iPad split-screen, monthly data updates, and a free 30-day trial, FlyQ+ EFB helps pilots plan and fly with confidence.

## Review summary

Reviews consistently praise FlyQ+ EFB for being easy to learn, affordable, and feature-rich with strong planning, weather, and charting capabilities, plus responsive support. The main recurring concern is the change in lifetime subscription policy and the potential loss of benefits for long-time users, along with occasional reliability issues or slower problem resolution noted by some users.

### Pros

- Easy to learn and intuitively fast to access information (noting two-keystroke paths when in turbulence)
- Excellent value: full-featured EFB at a lower price than competitors like ForeFlight
- Powerful flight planning with winds aloft, weather, and NEXRAD, plus cross-country planning
- Strong support and responsiveness from Seattle Avionics
- Excellent iPad compatibility: geo-referenced instrument charts on the PFD and flexible chart display

### Cons

- Lifetime subscriptions not honored by new ownership and new charges for existing lifetime members
- Past reliability concerns and reports of slow responses to problems, especially during IFR operations
