Pilotflows vs Skydive Logger

Skydive Logger is a free Apple app that auto-records jumps with phone sensors, Watch guidance, and Google Earth exports. Pilotflows is a cross-platform skydiving logbook with gear management, multi-format exports, license progression, and the same account for pilot and dropzone tools.

What Pilotflows adds

Works Everywhere

Log jumps from any browser on any OS or Android device. Skydive Logger is Apple-only (iPhone, iPad, Watch, and M1+ Mac).

Full Gear Management

Track container, main, reserve, and AAD with repack dates and life limits — not just sensor telemetry from a single jump.

Official-Format Exports

US, French, and German PDF logbooks plus CSV and JSON. Skydive Logger exports JSON and KMZ for Google Earth.

Richer Jump Detail

Disciplines, weather, wind tunnel sessions, coach notes, video links, and jump partners. Skydive Logger focuses on auto-captured flight data.

One Platform, All Aviation

The same account covers pilot logbook, hangar, flight school, and dropzone operations.
