The first vario app for paragliding engineered around the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to detect motion in all directions. The IMU centric design allows for a vario app outstanding in both, precision and robustness. This is achieved by continuously cross checking all sensor readings from the accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer with the barometric sensor. In contrast to varios and apps built around the barometer only, false indications of lift are minimized and the feedback is instant. Centering the core of a thermal is more intuitive and natural. What you hear is what you feel - a zero lag vario with no thermal missed! A vario that beeps you up where you belong!

Our smartphone varios range from a Basic Vario indicating your altitude and climb rate while flying over to a more Classic Vario that logs your flights and calculates speed over ground, direction of flight and above ground level information while paragliding. Our top of the line XC Vario comes fully packed with multiple altimeter settings, airspaces, waypoints, thermal maps and live tracking. The XC Vario App will also run conveniently in the background with screen turned off for hours and hours. This is useful if you are low on battery, just need the beep or want to use your smartphone as backup vario or logger.
First vario app built around the Inertial Measurement Unit with best in class precision and outstanding location accuracy. Instant vario feedback by processing all sensor readings to a true climb rate. Compare against varios: SKYTRAXX, Flymaster, SkyDrop, Naviter, Flytec , MipBip & more.
openAip airspaces with above ground level (AGL) information that can be drilled down by country and region for informational purposes. A vario with colorful vertical and horizontal airspace visualization to back up flight preparation.
Hotspots and heatmap overlays will ease the planning and assist throughout your first cross country paragliding. A vario that will guide you to the next thermal. Auto selection of hotspots based on season and position of the sun.
Insights on routes and strategies for cross country paragliding. Skyways indicate typical cross country (XC) routes taken by paragliding pilots.
SafeSky traffic information system improves situation awareness and can act as an extra margin of safety. Check out how SafeSky and theFlightVario team up.
Quickly create routes and waypoints from scratch or import .cup files used in paragliding. Navigate while paragliding with bluetooth remotes, proximity sensors or on screen using a stylus pen. Swiss Obstacle Database incl.
A convenient flight book to log, store and analyze all of your paragliding flights. Keep all your flights in one place and share with friends and family. Analyze flights in Google Earth with .kml or igc viewer with .igc. Valid G-RECORD!
Easily connect to bluetooth varios like the blueflyvario, xctracer, Skybean 2, MipBipS+ and more. You can also have your phone act as bluetooth vario itself to provide variometer readings to another device (BETA users and only in XC Vario app)
Sensor Fusion and Dual Rate GNSS allow for precise positioning capabilities for even small movements. This enables a fast calculation of wind strengths and directions while thermalling. It also allows for calculating the speed of your paraglider.
Providing These Vario Apps
Providing These Vario Apps
Sensors and integration of sensors in smartphones have undergone a rapid change. While sensors started out as supplementary technology for providing relevant information for things like screen orientation and assisting in vertical orientation (altitude), smartphones turned to being incredible sensor boards that combine updates on environmental conditions on a millisecond scale paired with immense computing power. Computing power that is unmatched with regards to dedicated varios allowing for sophisticated algorithms that are hard to implement at low level such as our AI Sense lag free vario engine.
With that said, being a paraglider for decades now, I love pushing these vario apps further and further, testing new features and making them available to paragliders or pilots in general.
