iFMS for Android
I have been flight simming for many years. In the last year I was becoming very frustrated trying to plan my flights with relative accuracy, ie SIDS, STARS, waypoints, etc. It looked like finding an aircraft with an FMS/FMC would be my answer. I bought a couple of payware aircraft but in both cases I find it frustratingly slow to program accurately and there is a sharp learning curve. I was put onto this wonderful, simple program. From looking at Mr. De Feyter's pictures and reading the information I knew I had found my answer. After purchasing and downloading this app I run into problems. Not with the program but with my ignorance and being technologically challenged. Over the next several weeks Michael has very rapidly answered my emails with very easy to understand instructions. I now have a great little FMS to use in any aircraft I choose. The Instructions within the package are very short, sweet and to the point. But, they are very complete. I can't say enough about Michael's customer service. If you spend the mere $15 USD and get iFMS you will not be disappointed in any way.
Been using this on almost every flight I've done since last winter. Developer was quick to fix issues and very friendly. Better customer service than most companies. I haven't touched an in-game FMS/FMC since I installed this. Only gripe I can think of is there's no way to turn off the GPS tap (where you tap the ND and get that locations GPS coordinates). This can be quite annoying when using the right softkeys as I find myself often tapping the ND on accident when entering in stuff and having to delete something like N4326.7W07014.5. Especially annoying if I just typed in my own GPS coordinates. This app needs more love and awareness. I cant believe only 1,000-5,000 people have bought this.
Your app is outstanding. Very impressively.. my question is this I am using this app in my android tablet with xplane .. I want to use multiple android devices with my ifms as like master slave mode but how I can do this please reply me as soon thank you
Mate you are an absolute champion. The app is simply amazing! Integrates seemlessly into my home cockpit setup running P3D. I am a real world pilot and actively use my home setup to maintain proficiency. This app runs smoothly in conjuction with other wifi apps i.e remote cockpit hd and all my saitek panels and hardware. Thank you for your hardwork - well worth the money. The HSI and EICAS functionalities mean that im off to buy another 7inch tablet and make best use of the fantastic 2 screen functionality.
An outstanding app for flight simulator enthusiasts! Remarkable value for what it does. The developer is one of the best in terms of support and advice. 5 stars, well deserved!
Crashed on my tablet
Wonderful app. Works as advertised on multiple devices. Author is excellent about providing support. Well worth the money.
It is working nicely as I set it up with X plane 10 and 11
Its a awesome app. It just has some bugs that the dev can easily fix soon with the new 2.0 update.
Relly nice app! Works well (at least for X-Plane), just beware that it drains battery quite quickly.
Great app! Defualt AIRIC cycle is 1407. To update go to the iFMS website and find instructions. very easy to do. On long flights Its nice to be able to take your phone or tablet and flight follow while doing other things and know when you should return to your computer to setup for arrival. With the default aircraft it really works. Havent tried creating files for other aircraft yet, but i saw its able to be done on youtube.
I'm impressed with both the functionality and support with this application. Well done!
Looks very high teck
all you have to do is turn your avionics or auto pilot on when you get to your altitude and this thing will take over, if you do a 5 hour flight, you can literally go about your life and this utility will fly your plane for you
Love it so far. Works great. I love using it on older aircraft that dont have any fms.
Doesn't work. Freezes installing default data, won't connect over my LAN hosted game... terrible.
Used this product for about three months. Easy to set up and rarely fly without it now. Mainly use for jets but I get it out for GA planes when flying in new territory. Great work!
Did not work. No support poor documentation. Installed the utilities as instructed. Very disappointed.
Don't get me wrong, the FMC is fantastic, when it works... Sometimes it crashes and you have to reprogram the route from scratch, sometimes it would not completely take over the autopilot in X-Plane... And it's hard to figure out how to use it for a beginner... Don't buy unless you absolutely need it.
Just like the real thing

Very good FMS and FMC lnav and vnav work well. It gives a good impression of what the FMC is like on a real Boeing Sadly I can be buggy quite often so it 4 star from me Although still worth the money!!!!
Tested with XPlane 10 64. Using my B757/B767 Honeywell FMS Pilot's Guide Manual as a guide, routing basics are there. Overall display is fairly well done though some inconsistencies on the MAP display (ground track vs. heading most particularly) Do like the Map/FMC display in landscape. Author has provided great support when I encountered a few issues including wind correction on X-Plane. There are some relatively minor (for a sim) issues remaining, but a good value overall. Documentation is probably too scarce for someone unfamiliar with an FMC to really get good use out of it though it does reasonably approximate the real thing.

A must have for all flight simmers. Big thumbs up for the developer. Best addition to FSX in years. Super customer service. Bit of a learning curve if you've never used an FMS but well worth it.
