Dan no problem this is a public open forum we all should realize that when people use real names it opens up for more scrutiny. I do find the OP's thread a little bit over-the-top with accusations that aren't being backed up. I looked at his flights it's possible that the bugs he is talking about are related to his flights. Maybe he got phone calls that interrupted the recordings? Maybe there's other things involved he's not divulging. But if you're coming on a public forum like this you better expect every answer except for what you're looking and plenty of thread drift. That's why I call this the "rec aviation speculation" group. There is plenty of really good information here, and there's plenty of thread drift and speculation. There's a lot of kudos and a lot of insults and a lot of in between, and there's a lot of white elephants in the room that everybody sees but nobody wants to talk about.

I too have used it in the Iglide light configuration and found it very easy to use and when my GPS 20 failed to record my last ( and only flight this year) flight, without knowing that Iglide would record I downloaded it to OLC it did it without fail and I was very impressed. The only bug I found originally was trying to download use your way points from a database into the App. A few emails back to the makers were replied to and timely manner with an explanation of how to do it and that they were aware that there was a bug. I was told to start the app and then download it from iTunes and I was successful in getting my waypoints installed.
