Default alternative to iGlide for iPhone (6 plus)

I have been using iGlide now for about 20 flights, and I really don't like it very much. It is riddled with bugs (which I have duly reported to Butterfly only to hear "yes, we're aware of that"), the user experience is terrible (and I speak as someone who has worked in user interaction and user experience for years), and the documentation is woefully out of date (last updated 2/2013) and incomplete. So I have wasted $33.

Are there other apps that people recommend for IoS?

thanks, bob


Cannot recommend or otherwise, but the main choice for iOs apart from iGlide is Winpilot. Like many others, I used Winpilot for many years on iPaqs and they did a great job. The iOs version is completely different, and I cannot say whether or not it is better than iGlide.
