How do I install VFRnav on my device?

VFRnav is available for Android and iOS devices and compatible with all reasonably up-to-date devices. For more detailed requirements, see the “System Requirements” section.

System Requirements

Android

  • Android 8.0 (Oreo) or higher
  • At least 3 GB of RAM recommended
  • GPS receiver (internal or external)
  • For online features: Internet connection via Wi-Fi or mobile data

iOS

  • iOS 15 or later
  • Compatible with iPhone and iPad
  • Built-in GPS functionality or external receiver (e.g. SkyEcho, Stratux, AirConnect)

Note on iPad compatibility

Please note: iPad models without a SIM card slot (so-called Wi-Fi-only variants) do not have an integrated GPS receiver and are therefore unsuitable for navigation. For reliable navigation with VFRnav, an external GPS receiver is required in this case.
