I couldn't make much sense of the information - vario kept jumping between plus and minus 10's of thousands of fpm! Support forum was not displayed properly so i couldn't give feedback there. Doesn't compare with xcsoar.

Excellent app. Accurate on my nexus 5 with in-built barometer. Easy to upload your flights on Leonardo. But the vario sound needs a little improvement, especially in sink..

I use gaggle to log my uav flight. Great app.

Great app to log your flights and upload to Leonardo. Very easy to use. For local contests it has a very convenient feature to send log files via email.. it made the life of our contest director much happier as logs came in from contestants even before they where retrieved from their landout !!! alx.

Great job! Please make a widget or make use of map + audio vario on screen!

D70%

I've used it to log my flight, display turned off and phone sitting in the pocket. Last year it logged all my flights and didn't fail once. This year it has only worked once.... Every other time it stopped logging during flight even rebooted phone (HTC Desire CM7). I suspect it's because my user scenario is much different than the norm... I wish it worked like last year. But hey, you can't really complain with free software :-)

Hi, I had to initialize my HTC Desire. I had all data on SD. But the reinstall of Gaggle did overwrite all the existing data. Lost some flights and many waypoints. That sould be improved. Backup-Function? I like the flawless upload to my own leonardo-server. On some Phones like Samsung, LG with some faulty GPS Firmware, the flights are all 24h in the future.

Wonderful beeps so cool, I did not know I had a barometer in my phone until I heard the beeps!

I fly a paraglider and have used Gaggle to record my flights for over a year, i find it indispensable! Looking forward to getting a new phone so i can try it out as a vario!

only one word for developer.....SALUTE!!!

M70%
by M####:

Great app for paraglider pilots. I use it as variometer on my Sony Xperia Active (my only vario), and works perfectly for thermaling with some custom settings that make it very sensitive and accurate. Also, flight logging, IGC file sharing and very nice flight summary make it a must have app.

Works well with RAZR but there are a couple things that could use some work. Any upcoming updates soon?

Paraglider pilot much appreciates this app.

M70%

I mostly use it as a flight logger since my screen is hard to see in sunlight. Its nice to be able to upload my flight to Leonardo as soon as I land.

Great for quick logging of glider flights - kml in google earth gives immediate 3D view, esp good for checking your winch launch & circuit patterns.

by M####:

+ amazing app (for a hang gliding pilot), lots of features, completely free, no ads - needs a bit more work to get perfect (feature oriented comment)
