GliderPal

Flight and Airspace Information for Paragliders and Hang Gliders Pilots

Important information about the current version:

- In the event of starting problems, please activate the required authorizations manually in the Android app settings.

- Due to the current requirements for updating, it is unfortunately not possible for me to solve the current problems at short notice without completely revising the aged app. However, I see good chances of being able to offer a new version for the 2021 season.

I tested the app for my possibilities. If there are any malfunctions of the app, please send me an error report before a bad rating and give me the opportunity to fix it. This also benefits the other users and leads to higher motivation with the author. Please keep in mind that the app is provided free of charge and ad -free,

Operating instructions: http://dandem-flug.net/gliderpal/ GliderPal _1.1_certienungsanung.pdf

By using the app, the user agrees with the DHV's terms of use for the
