FANET weather station reports and thermals appear on the map automatically.

6) Rain radar and cloud cover widget.

7) Competition race tasks.
Tasks are fully compatible with the PG-Race.aero service. Camera permission is requested when scanning QR codes, for easy task sharing with other Apps.

Audible alerts can be set for 'SOS' and 'Retrieve' messages, airspace proximity, XC TRACER FLARM ® collision warnings, and new FANET messages.

Flights are logged as IGC and KML files, and can be replayed.

IGC flight logs made by XC Guide are accepted by FAI/CIVL for Cat1 events and are verified by their online validation service. They are also accepted by XContest.

Detailed help, in several languages, is included in the App.

Latest updates

What's new in version 1.558

V558 7 Mar 2024

Android battery optimisation and background App restriction will be detected by the App on start-up and highlighted to the pilot.
It is strongly recommended to remove these restrictions when running XC Guide.

A new airspace feature prepares the CTAF (airband VHF traffic) phraseology, in English, when an ATZ (circle) is clicked on the map.

Competition tasks from xcontest cloud, (with a 4-digit name), can now be loaded directly into XC Guide from the Navigation menu.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
