Ratings and Reviews
This was a major step backwards…
This updated app is a major step backwards from the original FOS Mobile app. Imagine a calendar that you have to reference numerous times a week for nearly everything work related…now imagine that this calendar was a puzzle, and you have multiple items that require you to consistently open and close options simply to see what you have done/logged, or what you are scheduled to do. It quickly becomes unusable as a quick reference tool. Why did you keep the calendar view from the original app? I love Collins avionics, the ARINC services, the ARINC-direct app…but this was a poor decision on someone’s part in the new organization.
Battery drain
I have anxiety when I have to check my schedule on this app. Anytime you check it, the app completely updates, which takes anywhere from 2 to 6 minutes as the phone warms up. There is no quick check without a complete re-sync of all data. Incredibly slow, cumbersome and painful to use.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your feedback and sorry for your issues. We are looking into the battery usage problem. Our new 3.4.4 release will significantly improve the time it takes to sync data from FOS.
Slow
Sync takes forever and drains battery, something as simple as a schedule shouldn’t take this long to load. I also get Sync errors almost every time I open the app.
