Message: [QUOTE="Neal Culiner, post: 19712, member: 1"] Hello Mike, Syncing with a cable is not an option for Apple devices. You are welcome to use version 1 for the lifetime of the app, you do not have to move to v2 if you don't want to or you don't find value in the new features, reliability, continued improvements, etc. Version 1 will cloud sync free for life, use whichever works best for your needs. I don't believe a $20 bill for an entire year is much to ask for software valuable to a pilot considering all the other costs we endure. You have to realize too that this is a less expensive option in the long run for those that want to keep their software updated and working with our latest releases of the PC products as well. Realize if we didn't have a cloud sync subscription you'd pay a fee such as $49.99 for version 2, then a year or so later when version 3 comes out, $49.99 again, on and on. Apple doesn't allow us to have v1, v2, v3 etc. in the App Store at once, so when the new version comes out the old version is removed and end of lifed, i.e. no more updates, support, etc. These app stores make us software developers handle software differently than when we could deliver and sell it from our own web sites. We "may" consider a full logbook solution on the iPhone in the future but presently our design goal is to provide you a tool to rapidly log flights while away and keep your logbook on a more reliable system. Any phone/PDA is not reliable enough to keep a pilot's flight records. You need a trusted and reliable system that you won't drop, lose, get stolen, or be of corruption risk. In addition, the full features and analytical capability of a PC is not available on a device so it's really leading you down a wrong path in making you or any customer believe having their entire aviation career on a device is a good idea. We will certainly continue to listen to customer feedback such as yours but we also understand the importance of what we are creating, an accounting solution for pilots, and we're not going to give you something that is in any way a risk to your valuable information. Thank you for the kind words and I hope you enjoy the great products and services we are working on for the coming year. [/QUOTE]
