Where FLT fits among the apps you know.
Pilot apps fall into electronic flight bags, logbooks, debrief tools and, lately, wearables. Here where FLT fits in comparison to some of the more well known pilot apps, from their own published material.
How to read this
The FLT app is a flight recorder and debrief tool. It is not an electronic flight bag: it has no charts, planning or weather, and if you use OzRunways, AvPlan or ForeFlight for those you will keep using them because they're great tools. The rows below are the things FLT was built to do, so they show where the products differ, not everything each product offers.
We've collated this data from each product's own website, help pages or App Store listing as at September 2026. Where we could not find a capability described, the cell says not stated. That means we did not find it, not that it does not exist. If we have something wrong, tell us and we will fix it.
- Yes
- described as a feature of the product
- Partial
- related capability, see the note

- OzRunways EFB records your position every five seconds during a flight and its logs can show which runway you landed on; a landing count and touch-and-go handling are not described. Subscription. ozrunways.com
- AvPlan EFB saves the track flown to the flight plan and can update a logbook from it; landing detection is not described. An Apple Watch app is listed but what it does is not stated. Subscription. help.avplan-efb.com
- ForeFlight records Track Logs on its Essential plan and above, creates draft logbook entries from them and computes night time and landings from block times. Its Debrief feature divides a flight into take-off, airborne, approach and landing segments and scores each against published standards, including manoeuvres. Whether repeated touch-and-goes on one approach are counted separately is not stated. An Apple Watch app is listed but what it does is not stated. Subscription. foreflight.com
- CloudAhoy records from the iPhone or iPad GPS and analyses turns, S-turns, chandelles and steep spirals. Its CFI Assistant scores VFR stabilised approaches and traffic patterns against configurable envelopes rather than against an instructor's own demonstration. CloudAhoy was acquired by ForeFlight in 2023. Free Track tier and paid plans. help.cloudahoy.com
- MyFlightbook auto-detects take-offs and landings from speed alone, and its FAQ notes that this can miss touch-and-goes. An Apple Watch app is listed but what it does is not stated. Free with an account. myflightbook.com
- Aviator Pilot Watch is an Apple Watch app that detects and records one take-off, one landing and the flight time per flight, then syncs to the iPhone. Free. App Store
- Fyshh Aero·FLT landing scores, turn scores and reference comparisons are calibrated against recorded flights and still being refined; the app labels them provisional. Bank, airspeed and wind in turns are estimated from ground track unless the flight recorded load factor. The optional COM device adds cockpit audio and sensors and is sold separately. Feature detail
- LogTen is a manual and schedule-import logbook with an Apple Watch app for logging entries; it does not record flights from sensors. Free to a number of hours, then subscription. logten.com
- Garmin D2 aviator smartwatches (the D2 Air X10 and X15 and the D2 Mach 1 and Mach 2 series) record a flight on the watch's own GPS and barometric altimeter. The Auto Fly setting "starts a Fly activity automatically when the watch detects a flight" from climb rate, and the watch "automatically transfers the date, duration, total flight time and route to the user's flyGarmin.com logbook" via a compatible smartphone, so each logged flight ends with one landing; a count of landings within a flight, touch-and-goes and go-arounds are not described, and currency counting is described for the Garmin Pilot app rather than the watch. Its aviation alerts include a Fuel Tank Reminder and an Altitude Alert, each with an option to vibrate. The flight is recorded on the watch, and the logbook transfer goes to a flyGarmin account. It is a watch purchase rather than a subscription; Garmin's US suggested retail prices run from US$649.99 for the D2 Air X15 to US$1,549.99 for the D2 Mach 2 Pro.

Not shown: Garmin Pilot (logbook entries generated from GPS data; no Apple Watch app; pricing not retrieved), Safelog (no sensor recording), Redbird Debrief and FlySto (work from avionics or EFB track files rather than the phone's own sensors) and flight-school management systems such as Flight Schedule Pro and FlightLogger, which do not record flights.
