SimPlates for Negative User Reviews

Not Worth The MoneyI share the same sentiment that the other reviewer about plates not downloading. I used to use this app all the time but here within the last week everything stopped working. I took a fall giant leap paying for this but now I'm sure it wasn't the best investment..Version: 12.1.9

Was good something happenedChanges have drastically reduced the availabiity of charts a lot has been removed or changed and updated its all messed up when i first bought the app it was great now something has gone very wrong not happy as i payed alot of money for an app which is now dysfunctional and of no use due to the lack of missing files e.t.c.Version: 12.2.2

No U.S. PlatesThis app works well with available countries plates. However, the U.S. plates do not download. A great disappointment..Version: 12.1.6

Trouble connecting to serverThis could be a nice app for flight simmers. Unfortunately this app is too expensive to have the problem related to server connection. On 10 occasions connecting to the server for airport info, IFR plates was unsuccessful This is obviously required because of the amount of information. When it works a lot of the data is good though not always up to date.. I am sorry to say this is not worth the money...Version: 1.0

Poor applicationPlates are way to old. MMMX from 1998. Do not buy this application..Version: 1.1

SimPlatesSome of the data is quite aged. Additionally, there are constant server issues or the plates are not available even though they are shown as listed. Product support is poor to non existent..Version: 12.1.1

The idea is great, the product is not.In this day in age, pretty much every single plate for every airport in the world is available online for free. I was looking for an app that was a one stop shop to prevent me from having to go to a bunch of websites to get the required charts that I need. I guess I was expecting too much from a $40 app. This is where there should be a try before you buy feature. I read about the app before purchasing so I was expecting some of the charts to be dated (for countries that don's have the charts published online for free) but at least somewhat usable. I could never use this for flying online on VATSIM outside of the USA. For example, some of the Canadian Charts are from 2004. These charts have been available online for free for YEARS! All the SID/STAR in CYYZ went to all RNAV a few years ago. None of those are there, just the old procedures from 2010. There is no excuse for the links to these charts not being updated, especially for an app as expensive as this. The only charts that are current are the USA ones. There is an app for $2.99 on the app store that I previously used for that and is much better. There is no multiple tab option in the app so I have to back out of a chart to bring up the next one. This makes it a real pain for transitioning from a STAR to an Approach. Searching for a chart throuh the app is painfully slow even if you already have the chart downloaded. Save your money. I'd delete this app off my ipad if it was free..Version: 12.1.9

Expensive ICAO lookup app!Apart from being able to lookup airport names the app does nothing but crash on every attempt to download airport information or charts. Have contacted Dauntless and had no reply! Running iPad 1 64gb with iOS 5.1.Version: 1.0

Threw away $30+ bucksUnreal.. junk.. will not load charts, send error message every time. Will try to get $ back, Believe all the bad reviews, they are true..Version: 12.1.9

Awful!This app is an atrocity. For $25, you get a bunch of unorganized procedures which load maybe half the time. The other times it freezes, which forces you to redownload it. It's about the most expensive app I've bought, and yet it's worse than all the free ones I own. Do yourself a favor: Don't buy it!.Version: 1.1

Save Your MoneyProgram crashes! Can't even see any charts, only main screen, then BOOM CRASH!!.Version: 12.1.5

Sliding in qualityI’ve noticed some airports are disappearing from this app. Particularly in the Caribbean! Port au Prince now gone in addition to some full countries!.Version: 12.2.2

Not worth $45Can just google updated charts that are better quality and updated.Version: 12.1.5

CrashesThis app is GREAT when it works, but now, I can't even load up any charts. Please fix this bug!.Version: 12.1.5

Huge DisappointmentI was hugely disappointed after purchasing and installing this product. Being a US resident, and wanting to use the US Airport charts, this product is useless. The App immediately exits when selecting any US airport chart. Their help is non-existent, completely unresponsive and their product simply does not work as advertised. Anyone purchasing this product to use with US Airports will recognize this same thing. What a rip off. Better off using the subscription service with Sky Charts Pro. It actually works as advertised, unlike this product. Worst purchase I ever made off of the App Store. Only gets one star because you cannot award zero stars which this product deserves..Version: 12.1.6
