About Stratus Insight EFB

Stratus Insight is a full electronic flight bag (EFB) suite for pilots that includes AHRS with synthetic vision, TAWS, VFR sectional maps, IFR low/high charts, and geo-referenced approach plates.

More than an EFB, Stratus Insight also offers:

Internet Traffic
Follow along and monitor ADS-B traffic from the ground. Enable this overlay and watch as traffic is shown in real-time on the map.

Radio Transcription & Playback
Stratus Insight boasts a custom-built speech recognition system inside the app. When paired with a Stratus Audio Cable, the ATC Radio Transcription feature works similar to visual voicemail. ATC communications are converted into text, providing a helpful visual assist for referencing previous audio clips. This enables pilots to receive a clearance, ATIS, or other important ATC communications without needing to write them down

Vertical Weather Profile
The Vertical Weather Profile previews your route in the vertical slice from departure to destination, up to eight days out, so you can see the conditions you’ll encounter based on your departure time, aircraft speed, and each intermediate airport.

Smart Flight Plan
If a TFR or changes in weather force you to take an alternate route, the Smart Flight Plan tool considers things like fuel stops and day/night currency.

Radar Forecast
Radar Forecast provides long-term weather radar simulations up to three days out, and you can fast forward your weather radar in one-hour increments.

Stratus Audio Cable
The Stratus Audio Cable (available to purchase for $49.99 from the Appareo web store) is needed to enable the radio transcription and playback feature.

Seamless Integration with Stratus
The app supports all generations of Stratus receivers, and the user experience is seamless. Stratus receivers provide WAAS GPS, AHRS, in-flight weather, and ADS-B traffic.

Apple Watch
Uses HealthKit to detect hypoxia-like symptoms for pilot health monitoring including nearby airport weather watch faces and weather radar on watch.

Reviews for Stratus Insight EFB

Great EFB, but I have a wishlist

Honestly a great EFB, came recommended by my instructor. However there are a couple features on my wishlist. 1. Glide Range. It would be so cool to calibrate your range by recording a real life glide. 2. A web interface for planning would be awesome but I know a ton of work. 3. It’s easy to click on airports when zoomed out or very close, but at mid zoom it’s impossible to click on them which is really frustrating.

Worst Possible Thing

Kind of meh

Support for Hawaii is abysmal. There’s no option to load the high resolution IFR sectional. Victor airways in Hawaii do not work — if you plug one in then your flight path jumps thousands of miles to the continental US and back. Oceanic tracks (R464 etc) are not recognized at all. Aside from the Hawaii specific issues, it is not possible to shortcut direct to a fix during an arrival or departure route. The app also seemingly hasn’t changed at all since its release as Aerovie years ago. Abandonware? Update 8/2023: still pretty useless for Hawaii. No way to tell it to use the local V20 instead of the one in Texas 🤦
