LogTen Pro 6 Data Export 4+

The good… this app doesn't require a subscription like many others do once you download it, it's yours. The design is very Mac Like I really like the design it's easy to use and you have basically endless options on how you would like to create a logbook entree. It's very cutting edge I like how they have teamed up with Fore Flight you can log a flight from the flight plan data that you input to Fore Flight. This app has a ton of cool options to explore the Coradine team really are at the top of there game on this app. The Bad... Considering this app doesn't have a subscription fee the price isn't too hateful if you think of it that way but it is a little high at first. I was very disappointed with the release of Log Ten Pro 6 not in the product but in the way it has been released Log Ten pro desktop version for me updated at no charge however when I upgraded the desktop version the iPad version became incompatible and the only way to make the too work again in "syncing" was to upgrade the iPad's Log Ten version as well not happy with having to pay for updates if I am going to have to pay for updates every time one comes out I may as well be paying for a subscription. For the cost of the app you should never have to pay for an update come on especially not in the first year… Also if your going to get the iPad app don't expect to be able to use the same app on your iPhone they will make you pay for that too.

Update 9/7:Promises, promises, promises .... A few days after this posting I was contacted, and was told engineering will fix the report to show the approaches. 2 months and still nothing, when all it takes it is just no more than 2 hrs to fix the report. Their recommendation was to buy the mac $99 product which allows the custom report generation, and when I asked for a trial, they said we are not setup with app store for this, not even a discount/credit! A reputable business should take care of their customers...
Org posting 7/18: I took my IFR checkride last week. This app has been reviewed and advertised as a logbook replacing the paperback. Upon printing a report of the log from my ipad which in fact is advertised to go in a $35 binder, examiner did not accept it because critical information was cut, ex: one approach and not the required 3 and holdings, etc was not printed. Luckily, I had my CFI there and he had to redline it and sign it. It has been now 3 days since I posted in their support assistance on the reports and also sent them email, no response yet.

Wow, these guys really take the biscuit. So I am now buying yet another full version of their software (already overpriced) on my iPad. This is at least the third time I have bought their software on the iPad. What is extraordinary is that I also have to re-buy the software on my Mac and iPhone. Seriously!!!! What is worse is that the upgrade process has muddled up the older version of the logbook stored on the mac with the newer version stored on the iPad.

I have been a longstanding user of this company’s software (despite having had a total loss of a logbook many years ago when I upgraded my first iPad). Sadly, their software seems to be the best solution on the market, but that is not saying much. The field is hopelessly poorly serviced and thus Coradine have really got an easy time of it here. Can somebody else please please write a decent competitive logbook and give these people a real run for their money.

Buyer Beware!
