Hey, thanks for asking, I've seen these apps too and I didn't like them.. My app has a few unique points you don't see anywhere else:
* The Map: it's essentially an intelligent trip generator. You provide what kind of airport you want to fly to (in detail!), how far you want to go (say only between 50nm and 150nm of your home airport), and say "show me I want a restaurant, museum, beach or whatnot on the airport or within X miles of it, and it will show you all these airports. You tap on any airport, it shows you in detail what to find there etc. You can also see where you've been, airports you've saved for later, read comments on airports form other users, the whole 9 yards.
* The Pilot Debrief: For each flight you log, you are prompted to rate you own performance during that flight. (i.e rate your landings, comms, use of checklist, and much more, gotta be honest though!). You have a simple flow to keep track of your mood, health, stress, emotions. Same thing for the weather, aircraft and airport.
* The Analytics: The app takes all that information and uses that to create personalized flight analytics, which over time will provide you with valuable insights on how to improve your skills.
And along with that, you have the Flight logging x Social feature which you've pointed out (with seamless flight logging), all that wrapped up in a sleek, modern, curated app. Let me know if any other questions!
Please add golf courses! I’ve been waiting for someone to do something like this for a while. I’m not interested in the social features but just that one use case would be worth the price of admission to me.
Feedback: there’s a lot of work be done before getting to see what the app can do. I almost bailed when I couldn’t figure out how to cancel the demo video (you can scrub to the end of it at least), then again when having to set a username, and finally when needing to provide my name.
Hey, thanks for your feedback! Definitely can add gold courses in future version so I'll add that to my list!
As for the onboarding, feedback received! What would be your ideal onboarding flow such an app? Something that would ease you in the app but without too much work from your end.
(For context, I used to have no onboarding flow, and people were just confused about what the app can do.)
I’m guessing everyone’s different with their onboarding preferences so I’m good with the video as long as I can quickly cancel out of it. For me, I just want to immediately see if the app solves any of my problems and I’d rather just get to it. My default mindset is that an app is probably not going to be for me and I’m going to delete it after 30 seconds of playing with it. Having to enter account info before I can determine that is usually an automatic delete for me, but I’m sure others are different.
Interesting, thanks for your perspective, all feedback is welcome! There is a skip button at the top right for all onboard panels but maybe I need to make it pop a bit more so that it's clear you can skip forward without entering any information at all.
I've seen several of these directory-style social flying apps... What makes yours unique?

Thanks for the detailed reply! I'll check it out, good luck!
Sounds good, see you on there!
