Very user friendly AND necessary depending where you fly

I live near an airport and therefore am within a controlled area. It is not just any airport but one where the state Police helicopters and the Air National Guard fly out of - and they fly low.Applying for and receiving FAA authorization is required for legal drone flight otherwise the consequences can be very severe. This app made the LAANC process very smooth. I did not think it would be so quick and easy - especially reading the reviews about other apps. Besides the LAANC I could check for other temporary flight restrictions. This app is a necessity in my opinion for legal and responsible drone flying. Even if one does not lived in an area with controlled airspace it is still good to check for FAA TFRs. For better or worse there is going to be more scrutiny of drone flying. Apps like this take a lot of stress away from the wondering “Am I legal or not?” Keep that in mind because later this year the FAA will require drones to broadcast their ID’s. Assume you are going to be “on their radar” so stay legal, stay safe, and stay responsible.

I have to start this review by saying this app is great. It works well and does everything you need to register to fly in controlled air space. I would like to see more features that would be useful for my work. Now that checklists are included I would love to see a button on the mission side that lets you manually mark the mission as flown with the option to add any post flight notes needed after the mission. I would also love to see a place to list all drones and batteries owned with a spot in the missions where you can note which drone and batteries you are flying with. I have just been adding that information in the notes tab and it can be tedious. Regardless of those wishes I will be continuing to use this app as it is one of the friendliest to use out their.

Easy to use, one stop, intuitive app that provides awesome preflight info and easy flight approval tools. FAA approved. The preflight check list function is also super handy for new pilots like me. I was recently on vacation at the beach and wanted to grab drone footage of Sunrises and Sunsets. I fired up the app only to discover I was in a HARD NO FLY zone. I was bummed I couldn’t get the footage I wanted, but glad to leave the drone in the closet for a week to avoid potential FAA fines. Always, always, always reserve airspace approval prior to flying. If you don’t it’s on you. My understanding is that there are no acceptable excuses. How do you know your in a G zone unless you check? Even then are there temporary restrictions? While your there you might as well reserve airspace approval and confirm height restrictions. This app does the leg work for you making it easy and enjoyable. Thank You for this App.

Lacks detail like Aloft had for b4ufly

Based on my first experience the app provides the basic service and it’s ok to navigate. One thing that is a little annoying is the lack of zooming on the map. You are limited to how far out you can zoom to about one state at a time. The major flaw I see is the lack of controlled airspace zones on the map. For example, sports stadiums. You cannot fly within 3 miles of a stadium 1 hour before or after a sporting event. Stadium airspace is not marked on the map like Aloft. The controlled airspace grids are all one color which makes it hard to see the max altitude zones unless you zoom in. Due to the lack of airspace zones on this map I don’t trust it to guide me where I can fly.

Thank you for being an AutoPylot User and providing a detailed review of our app. We truly appreciate your feedback.We understand your frustration with the current limitations of our zooming capabilities, and we'll have our team revisit this aspect to see if allowing users to zoom out more would enhance the user experience.We understand your concerns about controlled airspace zones, particularly around sports stadiums. While we don't currently visualize stadium warnings directly on the map, our flight checklist always provides users with a stadium advisory when they are within 3NM of a stadium. Additionally, it lists the names of the stadiums so users can check the schedules and ensure compliance with regulations.We're constantly working to improve our app, and your feedback helps us prioritize our efforts. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts with us. Please don't hesitate to contact us at Hello@autopylot.io with further suggestions or questions.
