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.

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.

Constant Crashing – Unusable

This app crashes every single time I try to open it. I’ve tried reinstalling, restarting my phone, and updating everything, but nothing works. Completely unusable in its current state. Please fix this ASAP — it’s essential for work and this is unacceptable.

Unusable app, constantly crashing.

This app crashes frequently and is highly unstable. I’ve tried reinstalling it, updating my device, and other basic troubleshooting steps, but the issue persists. As a pilot who depends on this for scheduling, it’s incredibly frustrating.
