Download map files in your smartphone in case you don't have an internet connection during the flight.
Use the integrated PPGpS Offline Map Creator to generate offline maps.

*INSTRUMENTS:
PPGpS provides the altitude, vario, bearing, magnetic compass, acceleration and ground speed.
With just one click on instruments you switch easily between different data modes : instantaneous, average and maximum values.
Altimeter can be set to actual altitude or elevation (QHN, QFE) just by long-pressing on the altimeter.
If your smartphone has a barometric sensor, it could be used to compute a very accurate altitude.
You can use PPGpS Wear companion application to display your instruments on your SmartWatch.

*WAYPOINTS:
Create waypoints by tapping on the map or by entering their GPS coordinates.
Select a waypoint with one click on the waypoint instrument (WPT).
Rename or remove a waypoint from the contextual menu of the waypoint list.
Follow the displayed route (bearing, estimated travel time and distance).
Prepare your waypoints from Google Earth and import your KML files (PPGpS folder in the phone).
Waypoints may be automatically loaded at startup and saved at the end of the session.
In case your KML file doesn't import well, please send me the file and I will fix it quickly.

*WIND AND SPEEDS HUD:
The average ground speeds are graphically displayed for every azimuth.
The wind direction is displayed (red arrow) and may be reset at any time during the flight.

*RETURN HOME:
Home direction and Estimated Travel Time to return home is always displayed (shaded red line).
Computations are done according to the wind for accurate results.

*LIVE TRACKING:
Enable the Live Tracking feature to allow your friends and family to see you live on map ! Go to www.ppgps.info for more details.

Comments about PPGpS Android Version

My experience with this app is limited to only one ppg flight so far, but it performed great! After a few moments, it calculated the wind speed and direction, which was really useful. Logging my flight path was also very cool - I imported it into Google Earth and was able to see exactly where I went. The only thing I wish it had was sound for the vario - maybe I missed this option? All in all, this is a great tool for me!
UPDATE: The version that was released today fixes both issues that I noted below. I love the app and use it on every flight, however, the latest version does not seem to work with my BlueFly vario. Even though it says that is connected the vertical velocity remains 0. Also setting the altimeter to zero (to display altitude above takeoff field) does not seem to work. Overall navigation functions are outstanding.
It could be better. It could be less hassle when trying to zoom in on one of your flight replays. Seems like it fights me to do that. It also quit keeping track after 7 flights. I though maybe there was a limit so i deleted 1 and tried again, but it didn't record. I'd also like to see a horizontal view of the flight so i can see what's going on with altitude in replay. FlySkyHy does, but i don't have an apple. And I'm not about to get one. And where's the bug report button?! I don't see one...

PPGpS APK FAQ

Is PPGpS safe for my device?

Open up
Yes, PPGpS follows the Google Play content guidelines to ensure safe use on your Android device.

What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the PPGpS I downloaded is an XAPK file?

Open up
A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation. The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process. XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application. On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer. You can find the installer here:https://apkcombo.com/how-to-install/. But on PC client, you just need to put the file on LDPlayer.

Can I play PPGpS on my computer?

Open up
Yes, you can play PPGpS on your computer by installing LDPlayer, an Android emulator. After installing LDPlayer, simply drag and drop the downloaded APK file into the emulator to start playing PPGpS on PC. Alternatively, you can open the emulator, search for the game or app you want to play, and install it from there.
