Aviation apps for your Mac

We’re big fans of Macs. Many of us use Macs alongside PCs, and they have long been part of how we create our artwork and apps. We bring that same attention to detail to the aviation tools you use on your own desktop or laptop.

Prepare for an exam or checkride, keep your pilot logbook, or get to know your aircraft better. Here are our Mac titles, ready for you to explore.

Before you choose your app

Choose the Mac edition for your desktop or laptop Mac. The iPhone/iPad edition is a separate product choice unless its listing explicitly says otherwise. Check the product page for supported macOS versions, installation instructions and licensing details.

Looking for a title that is not listed here? Windows-on-Mac tools such as VMware Fusion and Parallels may be an option, but compatibility depends on the exact Mac, Windows setup and app. Check with the helpdesk before purchasing rather than assuming that a Windows app will work on your Mac.

Thanks for taking a look at our Mac apps. We put real care into the details, because a useful aviation app should help you spend more time learning and less time figuring out how to use it.
