Jump into a jet's cockpit, strap on your seatbelt and blast into the sky with V-Cockpit GPS. It features a unique, photorealistic way of displaying all your iPhone's sensory data. Bored on train or bus ...
Unless the phone is on its useless with the phone in airplane mode the gps button flashes and never picks up a signal and yes I tapped yes when it asked to allow access to location data It has never worked correctly or as advertised on the iphone 4 Doesnt work in airplane mode
This app used to allow you to view the camera through it with the GPS data overlaidthat was a most excellent feature that Id love too see come back It could also use some more color choices for the headsup feature One last suggestion is adding timetogo for the nextfinal destinationId definitely pay for that upgrade Love It But Wheres the Camera View
Crap Crap
Ive got several hud apps This one blows the rest away Best of its kind
I like putting the phone on my dashboard while driving in the mountains Works pretty well with the exception of the compass heading which is frequently way off and unreliable I would think it should be pretty easy to get a much more accurate heading especially when using GPS to derive it Considering this why does it want to calibrate the phones magnetic compass at times Fun App could be better
Heard the app discussed on Mac break weekly Tried the free version for 5 min and had to buy the full app Works great just make sure you are moving for accurate readings Great App
This is one of the coolest apps ever Finally an app has exposed the full range of spatial awareness the iPhone is capable of I found the app because I was looking for a way to quantify some amusement park rides how fast they went how far they went updown how many times did it go upside down in the dark etc I saw from the free version that this app was exactly what I was looking for I paid for the full version so I could access the chartsgraphs of historical data which is a fantastic feature to have So far very happy with it Super cool app
To the B777 pilot I too have tried it in airplanes Works fine in General Aviation aircraft which dont have metallic deice hot windshield coatings in the windshield like the B777 In fact it doesnt work in cars soequipped either for the obvious reason that its not able to see GPS satellites through the metallic coating Works fine in my other car though and my ancient Cessna Otherwise its a darn cool entertaining app The HUD is awesome Works Great but not in a B777 as in the pilot
I am a pilot and was looking forward to this app but the bottomline is that it simply does not work and needs to be fixed with a new revision The few times I actually got the GPS to work the airspeed vertical speed and altimeter would not work during takeoff and climb out It looks like it would be a good app and if it actually worked it would be But I would not waste your time and money on this app until such time that it is actually a working app like it was intended Unless of course this is one of those apps where the designer could care less if it works and is just out to sell as many as possible The compass seems to be the only thing on this app that actually works Very unreliable and doesn
This work 90 love it get it its warth it Great app
Add HUD over lay on the camera It would be nice use the camera with a gun sight on HUD HUD display
I really like this app Tools for gps with the Bad elf even make it better The only thing I wish you would fix is the HUD display its colors are too hard to see Make the lower horizon brown and the sky blue just like the artificial horizon guage Also make the altitude and knots meters white I will give 5 stars if that changes Great tool
Works well The hud heads up display is good shocked by how it works functionally and utilizes all uses of tge iphone Entertaining jet sounds and warnings and een fake airtraffic feed brings the bike trail to a whole nother realm Portible and effective entertaining even
Dont waste your money This thing is interesting for about 5 minutes then you realize that it never locks in to a GPS signal and youve been had Save your money
As a B777 pilot Ive had this app for nearly a year and cannot get anything but the attitude indicator to work The gps signal never locks on so none of the other functions work No its not in the airplane mode and I place my iphone on top of the glare shield where it should be able to receive a good gps signal Doesnt work for me
A very cool and fun app to have while driving Wish it had a real time weather radar Cool app
So far extremely erratic as a speedometer which I why I decided to buy it as one of my cars has a speedo that is about 10 fast according to my GPS and stationary government radar speedos the kind one finds near construction sites and school zones
At oa 25 mph the VCockpit GPS speeds moved erratically from zero to over 100 mph At 55 mph they ranged about 10 mph high and low none
Good idea but few precision sometimes Good idea but few precision sometimes
The artificial horizon is not supposed to move in the direction as the turn but stay level other apps similar to this works so can we get this fixed it renders the app useless and thats a shame Looks nice but
I got the app for the HUD in my car Very cool I get an additional ghost image on the windshield but that is not the apps fault and it isnt very distracting Would be cool if we could change the color of the display or the brightness for different lighting conditions A lateral gmeter that locks the highest leftright value see Cadillac CTSV would be way more usefull than the clock at the top in HUD mode Other than that my second favorite incar gadget Got it for the HUD
This app is worth the price for the HUD alone I dont think the iPhone 4 sensors are sensitive enough to measure g forces of an automobile so that was a disappointment It was what I wanted the app for at first But once it got dark I started the HUD clicked mirror to reverse the image and slapped the iPhone on my dash VERY cool I DO wish the adjustable colors of the HUD display had a true red though to better match my dash colors Adjustable colors of main display would be nice too All in all get this for the HUD alone Worth it for HUD alone
Locked up the iPhone the first time I ran it Deleted it Locked Up
Very cool app Works great Just needs an update for the latest models of iPhone to fill the screen and be Retina display friendly McD
This is really nice looking has a lot of features too The compas seems a liitle finickyseems to not work more than it should Still pretty well done Beautiful cool HUD
I love the product It works Its easy to use It is accurate Night vision is cool I found a small bug I saved speed vs time and altitude vs time graph data which should have been csv formatted it turned out that saved values were separated by a semicolon not a comma I also have a request the plotting functions shut down when the autolock activates and when I reopen the phone Vcockpit is still running but there is a gap in the graph for the time the phone was sleeping Can you figure out a way to set a time interval for operation and let the plots accumulate in the background while running other apps or when the phone has gone to sleep autolock That would be nice You do nice work
for starters lets get an iPad version out there and lets do something a little different than the competition like including an HSI CDI and vertical guidance but the price is OK its soso
The whole reason I bought this app was because it had the mirror HUD for my car It works and looks great Well Worth 199 Great HUD mirror for cars
Purchased the app primarily for the HUD or heads up display feature and is does not disappoint The colorcontrast as well as the character sizes make this the most practical app of its kind for use as a HUD The app overall is well done and is fantastic for demonstrating the cool built in features of the iPhone Nice details such as the radio traffic and the engine noise add to the appeal and can be muted The options menu offers all the necessary choices but isnt cluttered with too many variables The interface is intuitive and its nice to just tap the guage of choice and have it go full screen or tap again for a graph I am very pleased with this cool little program It was one of my first paid apps and I can say its well worth its price Only problem Ive had is with the menu buttons as they are small and sometimes I hit the one next to the one I intended However I would not suggest they change the button sizes because the layout is nice and visually appealing just the way it is Its a fat fingers problem not a design problem Well executed and beautiful app right down to the good looking icon put on the iPhone desktop Handy Entertaining Visually Appealing
AI is a joke only works based on the level of the phone Can not detect a coordinated turn Dont even think about useing this in an aircraft Dont waste ur money
Everything about this app is just great Really makes me feel like a pilot At home in my car maybe one day in my plane Its great
Nice work Very impressed Incorporate realtime location based WX radar data into the HUD horizon and this app will be on raw steroids WOW
This is a cool app but it does not function when the phone is in airplane mode with wifi on like all other gps apps please update to the 3GS gps processor and compass too cool app
This app is so cool I love but it needs more functions Buy it
Fun to use Good app
Nice display Nice sounds Im going to run the sound through my trucks speakerrs The engine will roar when I climb the hill when I to home Night display looks cool Reminds me of Janes combat flight sim Cool HUD
Very cool app have actual placed on dash of aircraft for fun accuracy is close could fly aircraft if instrument faliure occured with this app Air junky
I have approximately 20 apps This is the first one I felt worthy of a review Its great I drive a 2005 Ford GT and at night with VCockpit active and reflecting on the underside of the windshield it feels very much like flying Going fast helps a lot What fun
My son loves it Thinks hes a pilot I also always loved gadgets so its fun Recommended
This is a very cool app I added a bit more realism by multitasking real time radio chatter through safari on liveatcnet As a pilot this app made it for a great commute this morning Very Cool
Great appbut it will not work in an airplane that has electric windshield heat Great app
Compass works Attitude indicator works for roll and pitch speed indicator works if GPS is enabled and accessible Attitude indicator in addition to responding changes in roll and pitch also responds to accelerationdeacceleration and lateral G forces which makes for some cool looking responses when youre driving around town BUT which have nothing to do with changes in attitude So the AI banks and pitches up as your car turns or accelerates Altimeter and VSI work marginally and with a lot of lag in responsetime to an initial climb So for example a climb over an overpass at 60 miles an hour wont produce any indicated changes in altitude or rate of climb until youre already on the other side and descending Altimeter appears to be accurate once the instrument is allowed to settle down Have not seen ANY indication in the socalled acceleration indicator it has sat unchanging whether in my car going from 0 to 60 or in a B737 takeoff Cant tell if the units of measurement are too great for the meter to indicate anything or if this feature just isnt working but in either case indicated values are nonexistant or unreadable At the end of the day the above make this app a little fun and pretty much useless well worth the current free price What works and what doesnt
This is an awesome app I dont write many reviews but Im quite impressed with this app It would crash after loading until I restarted my iphone Its ran smoothly since
I love the realtime feedback the ability to touch various components to view them individually the night vision with the moon and falling stars in the main summary screen the headsup display on my cars dashboard using the mirror feature the graphing etc
On occasion I noticed the dial in the altimeter spin backwards over 300 degrees which I presume is because it chose not to do a full continuous circle Not a big deal
Very nice app I thoroughly enjoy it Compliments to the author Awesome Works great after restarting my iphone
I used it on a flight from San Diego to Sacramento last week and it gave me altitude speed and coordinates in real time Definitely worth the Of course the phone must be on for it to work Duh I am using a fully updated iPhone 4 Works great on commercial flight
Lets get a revision that uses the 3GS compass and better processor The speedo is not accurate enough to be reliable Otherwise I think it has the most out of the box functionality of them all I look forward to trying it in an airplane Almost a 5star
I love this app but I use it in landscape mode with the volume buttons up so any time I want to use it I need to remove it from the windshield mount start it manually rotate it and put it back in the windshield mount No start in landscape orientation with the volume buttons up
This is a great application It has worked in planes cars and trains without any problems I have havehave had several Garmin GPSs including an Aviation unit I am a private pilot VCockpit calculates and displays parameters which a stand alone GPS cannot The HUD Heads Up Display the ability to see individual instruments and save the recorded data are awesome VCockpit does not have the aviation data base built in for navigation like aviation GPSs do but that is not its intended use To have an app with the capabilities of VCockpit available fot 2 is incredible to me Great App
A lot of useful data in a super entertaining format Favorite fun app
Lots of fun Just needs update for retina display and make calibration save instead of reseting when you turn the app Great app
Happily upgraded from Lite version and for the price essentially free compared to hardwired sensors it cant be beat Got this for primarily for driving though it works great for commercial flights as well Excellent HUD for night driving and for seeing just how shall we say enthusiastically my time on the road was spent I have a high end aftermarket GPS in one of my vehicles that shows many of the same sensor details but I cant easily get the info out Hitting export inside this app us far simpler than pulling the hard drive from my AVIC and this works in any vehicle I choose Excellent app Solid app that works as advertised and then some
nice and cool I wish in the HUD mode the background was a real camera view from the iPhone or any chosen neutral color and mirror image available for reflective screen MrTaildragger
