Trying to get someone's attention at DroidEFB. Help please. Longtime basic subscriber. Sent an email 2/28 & then on 3/3, wanting to change to CFI/Premium. No response. Subscription auto renewed on 3/3 so I canceled within 48 hrs. Still shows renewed. Finally received response 3/7 but no help & issue still not resolved. I want to cancel basic subscription & upgrade to CFI/Premium for the additional $. No one seems to want the extra few $.
After being unusable for 2 months due to a bug, which is finally fixed, this is back to being one of the best EFB apps on Android.
Overall this is a very good app for navigation and flight planning. However, I would like to see the addition of a base map that would make it easier to see ADS-B traffic. I would also like the option to set larger fonts for traffic. Visibility of traffic on a busy sectional is cumbersome. I would also like to see an interface with Garmin Flightstream, although I imagine that Garmin may not license such a feature.
Been using this app for years and it's a great replacement for those who don't have Apple. however it's become borderline useless. It asks me to login EVERY time I open the app or lose Internet connection. I always thought it was extremely excessive asking every day before, but now I can't even use it while flying. I'll often need to log in multiple times in one flight due to lost cell service while aloft. This app would easily be 5 stars if I only had to log in once and it never asked again.
Really wanted to give this a try but I couldn't get over the initial mandatory subscription step. For some reason, there's no button to accept and pay for the subscription. I'm using iFlyGPS for now, just because it works.
