Based on Sporty’s popular handheld E6B Electronic Flight Computer, the E6B app has been designed from the ground up to make the most of iOS on the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, and MacOS on Apple Computers. The software is based on the tried and true formulas and algorithms developed over the years by Sporty’s team of over 50 pilots.
Its pilot-friendly design makes quick work of any navigational, conversion or fuel problem and it also performs conventional arithmetic calculations.
The advanced timer/clock feature simultaneously tracks Zulu, Local and Home time zones. The timer counts either up or down, and will display an alert when reaching zero.

CALCULATOR
-Perform basic math without having to exit the application
CLOCK/TIMER
-Simultaneous tracking of Zulu, Home and Local time zones
-Advanced timer counts up or down and operates independently so you can perform other calculations while the timer is running
-Upon reaching zero in the countdown mode, a message will display no matter what app is active – a useful feature for missed approaches, switching fuel tanks, etc.
Useful app, I use it frequently for different tasks. One thing I do miss for my daily routine is the option to set the calculator in ‘hours and minutes’ mode. It would be useful to calculate flight time or total time on a techlog page.
Invalid keyboard

It's almost corrected. Starting the app still gives the invalid keyboard. But when I switch a tool in the app, it works correctly.
Excellent tool for preflight

Too bad that the apple watch app uses the standard units in stead of the selected ones from the iphone app. Or the option to change the pressure from Inhg to hpa on the apple watch.
This app has been updated by Apple to prepare for watchOS 27 compatibility. No new features are included.
