APDL - Will it ever be fixed, let alone perfected?

Here's a better iPhone logbook app:

I left 'em for a Mac program called LogTen Pro.

Does that program require a yearly subscription?

Can you import your monthly schedule from crewtrac?

Will it keep track of 30/7 issues? How about rest requirements?

Same questions for this app.

Does it require a subscription? Are updates free?

Can you import your monthly schedule?

APDL/LogBook Pro Problem

Here's another one I can't figure out or get help for: I got a new laptop and installed LP and the APDL Palm OS PDA license. After importing the old logbook file to the new laptop, the system won't show any data past the end of January 2008. My desktop had a backup with the current data and after transferring that file (with data through August), the frigging new installation still won't show any data after the end of January 2008.

New solution: log all flights on the back of Starbuck receipts, staple each months together and put them in a yearly envelope. Cost: $0.00. Accuracy: better than Logbook Pro. Aggravation level: 0.

So long Logbook Pro

No yearly subscription and updates are free, except for major updates (only every few years)

You can import your schedule using a CSV format. I don't know if your company provides that. It's possible as it's provided at my company.

It does not keep track of rest requirements, etc. Although I hear they are working on it since it is such a requested thing.

It also syncs beautifully between the Mac and iPhone without needing to plug in.

Sounds like you have a filter set.

Did you contact their support? They have always been able to help me when I had a problem?

From what I have seen, APDL is still the best thing out there. I have looked into the Iphone and personally don't like it. My captain had one and let me try it. The darn thing crashed 3 times in 30 minutes. I am much more impressed with the Blackberry's.
