The pilot's logbook that does the paperwork.

Snap or speak the Hobbs and a flight logs itself — departure airport from GPS, flight time from the meter. Logbook, maintenance, operating costs, credentials, and DPE/IRS-ready reports. Works fully offline. No account required.

What it does

Hobbs in, flight out

Photograph the Hobbs meter (read on-device) or just say the number. SimpliFlight starts or closes a leg, fills the nearest airport from a one-shot GPS fix, and computes flight time to the tenth.

A real pilot logbook

PIC, dual, night, cross-country, instrument, landings, approaches — with certificate progress toward Private, Instrument, and Commercial minimums. Imports your ForeFlight CSV.

Know your true cost per hour

Track maintenance (oil, annual, ADs) and every operating cost. The app computes your all-in $/Hobbs-hour, occupant cost share, and business-vs-personal split — in exact cents.

DPE & IRS-ready reports

One tap builds a polished PDF logbook + cost report with every IRS-required field and a CSV for your accountant. Submitting locks the records so your books stay audit-consistent.

Fly for a school, club, or operator?

Meet SimpliFlight Fleet — the management side: fleet & maintenance tracking, FAA AD monitoring, credential-aware scheduling, dispatch, and Hobbs-based billing. Your school or club uses Fleet; you use this app free, self-book from its calendar, and import every completed flight into your logbook in one tap. See SimpliFlight Fleet →

Private by design

Your Hobbs photos, receipts, credential scans, and GPS tracks never leave your phone. Hobbs photos aren't even stored — only the reading. SimpliFlight works fully offline; optional cloud sync transfers only structured records — dates, hours, amounts — never photos, tracks, or PDFs. No ads, no tracking, no data sales.
