Great App! Fix the VNAV

I love the add on! I get to hear things I’ve always wanted to! The only downside is there is no way to take control within Infinite Flight. For example, if I have FL10 set for a certain fix, and I reach FL10 before the next fix, the plane will just sit there until it does. What if I want to continue the climb before my next fix. You would think to just turn the VS off. But no, IF-Assistant turns it right back on and follows the VNAV plan. In other words, there should be a way to manually take control of the VNAV without having to go back to IF-Assistant and cancelling any speed or altitude restrictions.

Amazing app but could be even better

I love this app and I consistently use it for almost every single one of my flights on infinite flight. I love the RAAS capabilities as well as the flight attendant calls. Although this is great I think a great addition to the game would be a TCAS system. I have no idea if this would be possible or hard to make in game but I think that would really give IF the most realism. It could have a warning if an aircraft turns orange (gets with in 3 miles at similar altitudes) that you would hear a TRAFFIC TRAFFIC call out and possibly even aircraft type, altitude, and in what direction they are in relation to you. It would be even cooler if when an aircraft gets to be red that you get the CLIMB CLIMB and the DESCEND DESCEND warnings. This would bring an amazing realism feel to the game. Again I have no idea if this is possible but if it was I would really appreciate that and I think others would too. Regardless this is still a really good app and does a good job at what it’s supposed to do. Thanks for making such an amazing app.

Oh how much I love this app

Everything is perfect, and it works so well with infinite flight. Thank you. However, in the next update, could you include German or Spanish(or both) for flight attendant voices? Or remove one of the French people? Maybe replace one of the with a Dutch voice? And if you were to add any new languages, could you include what language they speak next to their names to make it a bit easier. And if possible, could you maybe as well add an option to include the announcement that the meal service will begin shortly for long haul flight? That way you can select if you want the flight attendant to say that the meal service will “start shortly”. It would be amazing if there was an option to turn it on or off, based on the length of the flight. For example you can turn it on for an 11 hour flight from SFO-FRA, but turn it off for a 1 hour flight from SFO-LAX.

Great companion app to infinite flight!

In-flight Assistant is a great application that runs in the background while you play the flight simulator infinite flight. There are currently 4 in app purchases that you can make. I recommend the first 2 for sure co-pilot callouts and flight management warnings. Makes the flight sim experience even better. I just bought the third in app purchase where the flight attendants run through there preflight checks. It's very good but I am sure there are things John can do to make it better in the future as infinite flight releases the global update. Note: I have not purchased the voice command options, so I am not sure how well they work or not. Overall, this is a great app and I look forward to seeing John improve the app.

Not Going To Ask For More...

...I’m going with the wait and see what’s to come attitude! Thanks John for the response to my question a while back. I love the new shaky camera and all the additional bells and whistles that brings an amazing realism to Infinite Flight. I don’t understand why more people haven’t purchased this — it’s a perfect companion! I’m no pilot but when using In-Flight Assistant with Infinite Flight it sure makes it seem like I’m one — at least until you see the hundreds and hundreds of pages of flight manuals one actually has to learn in order to fly any plane. Then you realize who am I kidding. Oh well, thanks for making the fantasy enjoyable!

Spectacular.

While I hadn’t used the app before, as I didn’t think my older iPad could handle multiple things running along with Infinite Flight, with my recent upgrade to a brand new iPad Pro 2018, and a little nudge from my friend, I can’t stop using In-Flight Assistant. It’s the best companion app around. With all of the callouts (yes, I got every IAP there is to have…), it’s so helpful! I can tell if I’m too high on approach, too fast while taxiing (although that rarely happens 👀), it’ll do my ascent and descent for me, and so much more. So thank you. Thank you for designing such an amazing companion to Infinite Flight. I couldn’t be happier with it!

Good app, stupid prices

I've been a fan of IF ever since I bought the game, and the global update recently brought my attention back to the game after a short hiatus. This app does make the flight experience feel much better, but the pricing just feels way too high. For what you get, the add-ons should really be $1.99 or $0.99, unless if you were to add some extra features to them like multiple GPWS voices, or multiple different sounds for the PA (Really, the only reason I got the app was for the GPWS warnings and callouts, and I wasn't pleased when I saw that there wasn't any options for the sounds). Also, one co-pilot voice (Mark, I believe) says "Let's watch our speed dumba--" if you go too fast... Really, dude? I payed $10 to get cussed out?

Only actual content is via multiple IAPs

2 stars for effort with the API. This really only has any interest if if you fully intend to shell out $4. for each of the IAPs. All useful content must be purchased. As is you’re just buying an app to tell you what your flaps are set at, and to slow down here and there. Little else is included but all of it is yawn inducing. The female voice acts are both good, the males sound like they are aware of the fact that they are being recorded, but the actual recordings makes them sound like disembodied voices in a cargo box. Reverberated and it just sounds absurd. All in all this is just a shallow show in tell effort for how to work the API successfully. Not worth buying any part of.

You can use SmoothTrack with any game that supports TrackIR, including Flight Simulator.
