Software description
Add a whole new dimension of realism to your Infinite Flight experience with this polished, third-party add-on to Infinite Flight, the best mobile flight sim on the App Store!
Hear over 30 co-pilot voice samples during your flight, whether it’s takeoff callouts like “V”, “Rotate!”, or “Positive Rate”, or whether it’s warnings when speed limits are being approached, or confirmation callouts when setting flaps or gear settings.
In-Flight Assistant is NOT a flight simulator itself but rather requires Infinite Flight to provide voice callouts and realistic automated warnings for your flights.

NOTE: Disable Power Saving on your phone to run In-Flight Assistant, else it will be shut down along with other background apps!
====================
HOW IT WORKS
Start In-Flight Assistant, then launch Infinite Flight on the same device (make sure “Enable Infinite Flight Connect” is on in the Infinite Flight settings) – you’ll hear a confirmation that In-Flight Assistant is connected. It will now be watching your flight and provide the callouts as you configured them within the app. It’s that simple!
====================
CONNECTION ISSUES??? READ THIS FIRST
1. Try turning off your battery saving mode since it shuts down background apps
2. Try turning down your IF graphics level if your device is not very high-level
3. Try rebooting your device
4. Make sure “IF Connect” is enabled in your IF settings.
^ These steps solve 80%+ of connection issues.
