"Now instead of designing for specific devices and orientations, you're designing for a dynamic range of sizes and aspect ratios." They now offer support for resizable iOS apps and iPhone mirroring in the beta dev software and apparently the full size matches the leaks of the form factor of the new folding iPhone when open. I'm about due for a new phone so I think I'll get one when available. Will Garmin optimize Pilot to take advantage of the new form factor? I'd love to skip having a separate iPad mini to carry around.https://forums.garmin.com/pilots/aviationservices/f/garmin-pilot/436142/has-anyone-sucsessfully-copied-a-flight-plan-generated-in-foreflight-and-pasted-it-into-garmin-pilot/2042375Wed, 01 Jul 2026 22:27:00 GMTa9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:7e29fd84-5cdc-470f-8848-c8424e9b3eb52707371Hi, yes, I've done this.

This means that European pilots have to scroll through all procedures/charts of airports and try to find the right plates. This high workload holds me back from using Garmin Pilot for flying in Europe. I'd really like to switch to Garmin, because I prefer the basemap, integration with avionics, etc, I want to simply select the SID, STAR, Approach in the active flight and then I expect a binder with only those selected procedures. Currently, this feature called "Active Chart Binder" is per support not available in Europe... Please let me know if this is in the pipeline soon.

I'm another Foreflight user considering the move when my subscription is up. I have my custom checklists (word file, printed & laminated 8 pages) that I'd love to incorporate within my flying flow. Foreflight doesn't make it easy to enter checklists either - Let us do it on the web or offline and import to the app. Retyping on a mobile device would be super tedious. Could be a great feature where Garmin would be better than FF!https://forums.garmin.com/pilots/aviationservices/f/garmin-pilot/436410/logs-synced-for-d2-mach-2---altitude-and-speedSun, 17 May 2026 02:44:00 GMTa9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:393554f7-5f9a-4128-add0-85b866db46868170451Hi all, I’m using my D2Mach2 to log my flights - the log entries are synced to Garmin Pilot - but it seems that some data doesn’t get synced - namely GPS recorded altitude and speed from the watch. Basically, if I look at the activity on Garmin Connect, I can see my track, altitude and speed graphs. On Garmin Pilot, all I see is the track data - it’s showing no data for altitude and speed. Does anyone have any ideas on if there is a way to get that data recognized in Pilot from the data synced over from my D2 Mach 2?https://forums.garmin.com/pilots/aviationservices/f/garmin-pilot/425719/is-there-a-good-way-to-create-or-import-check-lists/2031747Sat, 16 May 2026 11:27:00 GMTa9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:64fda4cf-80f3-41a9-ba01-61da716c4eda8820933Another Garmin Pilot trial user considering switching from ForeFlight to Garmin Pilot and finding the lack of ability to import checklists (e.g. .ace files) a major detractor to making the switch which is unfortunate as it seems like there are many things to like about GP over ForeFlight.
