iPhone, iOS 17 or later, and the TestFlight app.

What's in it

The things I check before a flight, without squinting at raw METAR text.

METARs & TAFs, decoded

Current conditions and forecasts for any ICAO station, written out in plain language. The raw text is one tap away if you want it.

Flight category color

Every card, widget, and forecast period is colored VFR, MVFR, IFR, or LIFR, so a glance tells you where a field stands.

Home & Lock Screen widgets

Small, medium, inline, and circular widgets for your Home and Lock Screen. There's a UTC clock too.

Best runway & wind math

For each field, the runway most into the wind, with headwind and crosswind components and a runway diagram.

Personal minimums

Set your own limits, and any field that busts them gets flagged in the list — a crosswind past what you're comfortable with, say.

Scrubbable TAF timeline

Drag along the forecast to see the category and conditions change by FM period, out to the end of the TAF.

Nearest airport

The closest reporting station shows up at the top of the list, based on where you are.

The rest of the numbers

Density altitude, ceiling and sky, visibility, altimeter, temp/dew point, and sunrise, sunset, and civil twilight.

Lists and search

Group airports however makes sense to you, add or search by ICAO, and pull to refresh.

A few screens

The list, the detail views, and the widgets.
