EasyVFR 4.1 – New tiers and plans, new countries

by Tim Peter | sep 1, 2022 | Development

EasyVFR's goal is to give both beginner and advanced pilots peace of mind when planning and navigating VFR adventures.

Would it not be great when all VFR pilots had easy and free access to essential and required information for pilots? Airspaces, navaids, obstacles, frequencies, NOTAMs, airport procedures, and affordable upgrades for those features that make your life even easier still?

We believe that you should not have to pay to know where the traffic lights are - Having easy access to reliable, essential, and official aviation information will make the GA safer.

As of today, EasyVFR 4.1 makes all that possible for all European VFR airspace users, by introducing a completely new licensing structure. ?

New tier - The essentials for free with affordable upgrades

Along with this update, we introduce a tiered structure for the EasyVFR 4 mobile app licenses. With these, EasyVFR 4's reliable quality information and tools become accessible to and affordable for all European VFR airspace users. Bringing:

  • EasyVFR Essential >> Forever free.
  • EasyVFR Live
  • EasyVFR Pro
  • Monthly subscriptions for these tiers.

More about these new licenses during the coming weeks when we work on the new onboarding, documentation, public release, and press releases. Below is a summary of the new pricing and plans.
