An Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) reduces cockpit workload and provides relevant information when you need it. DroidEFB overlays current position and flight plan onto an FAA Sectional, TAC, Low Altitude or High-Altitude chart. On the ground, current weather is displayed for long range planning; helping pilots visualize the impact current conditions will have on their flight.

Easily amend airports, waypoints, victor/jet airways, STARs, DPs, GPS coordinates and DME. Advanced navigation log takes into account current winds aloft for precise planning.

Routes flown are stored as GPS breadcrumbs and can be uploaded and viewed in Google Earth. https://droidefb.com/tutorials/

Charts and plates are viewable via our servers with an Internet connection and are downloadable for offline use. RouteMinder™ automatically checks the planned route for Charts needing downloaded.

Tried to login but multiple failures but still wanted private information.

Edit: Thanks for the quick reply! I had confused "Max Zero Fuel weight" with "Hull weight" as I haven't ever heard it called that before. Leaving one start off for a bit of clumsiness in the UI, but maybe I'll get used to it as I go. Otherwise it's looking like it has some potential! Original post: First thing I tried was the weight and balance screen and i was unable to get it to work. just keeps saying my gross weight is -1.

Overall a very good app. I use it for VFR flights. Many long cross countries. Some things I would like to see are: -Improved logbook capabilities. -Voice warning (Bluetooth) for ADSB traffic, my #1 priority. -Lat and Long points seem to suffer heavy rounding, can this be improved? -Specific to my needs- a large format continuous Time to Target count down display option. I conduct formation flyovers at sporting events, funerals, etc. Timing is often based off the National Anthem or Taps. I.E once the anthem starts I need to be overhead in 1 minute and 55 seconds. A large easy to read time display with time from present position to the next waypoint would be very useful. -Rubber banding capability I plan to keep using this app. I look forward to improvements that make it even better.

UPDATE 2/29/20: Returning to aviation after a 12 year hiatus, I found that this has all the stuff I used to need a flight bag full of charts and gear for. Although operation is fairly intuitive, a better tutorial laying out the finer points would have improved my learning curve. Very slow (∼3 wks) responding to my claim for an advertised discount on a subscription, and my free trial expired, but ultimately they refunded the difference. Other reviewers report better response times from Support.

Convenient, user-friendly, intuitive UI. Many useful features at your finger tips - for VFR in particular. Reasonable pricing. Have been asking for individual Low Altitude chats to be individually display-able rather than mesh only, due to some info being difficult or impossible to read on the chart. Would be perfect if the IFR low altitude charts mesh as well as the VFR Sectionals do... Updates are pretty regular otherwise. Definitely an EFB worthy of your consideration!

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.

I'm using the basic program (not the premium with the wx.) I'm an android only person, and wanted something that was cheaper then Garmin. I used Garmin during it's free trial period and once It expired I switched to this. This has everything I need for my general aviation needs as I get my Fixed Wing add on ratings. (I'm a prior Heli guy). I used it right off my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with the internal GPS. This has worked perfect for my needs and the subscription price is much better then the alternatives. Droid EFB is a great program, and the developer has responded to my questions too. Note* I also tried wing X Pro for android. That was a BIG Disappointment, it works great for the Apple products, but they removed most of the features you need for the android. Do not use Wing X pro for android!

This is a robust and reliable solution for Android, and runs well on my Samsung tablet as a dedicated EFB. I recommend it to students as an alternative to IPADs. I'm a professional pilot and use this for both personal and commercial flying when not with a company IPAD. Its straightforward and intuitive to operate and permits primary navigation without working very hard at it, a very important feature when you have to operate multiple aircraft with different FMSs and EFBs. I don't really care about 'value-added' features like weight and balance, aircraft profiles, GPS geo-referencing, etc. on an EFB, I just want it to have current charts and always work the way I do, which it does. I would like to see international chart options or at least Canadian charts in addition to US charts.
