Install from the browser
Add Fly Overhead to the Home Screen on iPad or iPhone and use it as an app-shaped EFB without changing the underlying workflow.
§ 01 / The decision
A flight bag is already a mixed-device system.
Pilots rarely live on one screen. A route may begin on a desktop at home, move to a tablet at the FBO, and finish as a quick logbook check on a phone. Students borrow aircraft. Instructors move between fleets. Partners and clubs do not always buy the same hardware.
Fly Overhead uses an installable Progressive Web App on iPad, iPhone, Mac, Windows, ChromeOS, and Linux, plus an Android app through Google Play. The goal is not platform novelty. It is continuity: one sign-in, one workflow, and fewer device decisions between planning and shutdown.
Phone or tablet
Install through Google Play and use the same account and product on the Android device that fits your kneeboard or panel.
Give planning room to breathe
Use a Mac, Windows PC, Chromebook, or Linux browser when a keyboard and larger chart view make preflight work easier.
One flight, four screens if you want them
Device choice becomes a practical decision for each phase instead of a subscription constraint.
- 01 · Home
Build the route on desktop
Use the larger view for chart layers, terrain, weather, winds, NOTAMs, and route refinement.
- 02 · FBO
Brief on the tablet
Carry the route into the cockpit and verify the latest source data before departure.
- 03 · Backup
Keep the phone available
A second signed-in device can preserve access if the primary screen overheats, loses power, or becomes inconvenient.
- 04 · Postflight
Finish wherever you stop
Review the voice-generated logbook draft on the ramp or later from another device.
§ 03 / Pilot trust
Platform flexibility is not redundancy by itself
Multiple screens are useful only when they are charged, current, mounted safely, and backed by appropriate procedures. An installable web app still depends on preparation: download what you need, verify chart currency, and test the device before flight.
Fly Overhead is advisory only and is not a substitute for required equipment, official publications, an official briefing, or sound cockpit resource management.
