MyVario vs FlightSight Usage & Stats
MyVario is a simple-to-use app that displays altitude and vertical speed in a format that all pilots understand. Human factors was important in the development of this app.
The altitude (above mean sea level) is calculated by using filtered GPS data. The variometer uses the change in altitude over time to calculate vertical speed (in knots). A Kalman Filter has been tuned and is used to smooth the variometer presentation. You should find the variometer to be smooth but responsive enough to show small rates of climb or descent. As with commercial variometers, the user can set the sensitivity.
MyVario also includes a Test mode that shows varying altitude and vertical speed. This is handy for becoming familiar with the instrumentation or simply demonstrating the app to others.
As with all portable electronic devices, MyVario should never be used as a substitute for approved cockpit instrumentation. Under rare circumstances, the altitude my be off. This could be due to poor GPS reception or a failure of the hardware or software.

FlightSight is an aviation sight level app. Its purpose is to help pilots determine whether their flight path is above or below distant objects. Position the sight target on cloud tops or bottoms, mountain passes or other aircraft and FlightSight will tell you if the object is higher or lower, and by how many degrees. FlightSight is a low budget HUD (Heads Up Display)! The FlightSight app can be used by holding the iPhone or iPad by hand. Or it can be mounted on the top of the instrument panel.
Four display modes can be selected when using FlightSight. Fixed target grid, fixed target grid and fixed level line, floating target grid and floating level line (shown here) or floating target grid only. FlightSight can be used on devices in either vertical (portrait) or horizontal (landscape) positions. Finger gestures can be used to zoom the FlightSight view in or out.
FlightSight also has a camera option. When you press the camera button the current image will be saved with all FlightSight information embossed on it.
Stop guessing, safe fuel, be safer … use FlightSight!
Use of FlightSight is not an FAA approved method or flight path navigation decisions. FlighSight does not replace good pilot judgement and accurate weather reports. FlightSight is simply a tool for helping pilots confirm their flight path decisions.
