eApis for iPhone
Lobo Labs has a nice iPhone App for eApis called FlashPass. It works for the iPad as well.

Re: eApis for iPhone
Lobo Labs also reviewed his own app and gave it five stars saying "Works great!".
Tsk, tsk. Impressive amount of five star reviews in the first two days. I didn't think so many pilots would find a new brand new app, have a chance to test it on a cross border flight
and write a review so quickly.
And only for IOS5. Only good for iPhone 4+ (nobody stupid enough to run IOS5 on a 3GS) who don't jailbreak.
Seriously dude, you're making an app that stores personal info and interfaces with government systems, and you can't even be trusted not to screw with customer reviews.

The other thing to note is that while the app itself is free, the service is only free for 30 days. It's $60/year after that.
EDIT: The developer is working on implementing a free subscription for the casual flyer. It may be good for 3 round trips (6 eAPIS submissions) but that isn't final. I think that could make the app much more useful to private pilots flying south a few times a year and may be looking for something to make the eAPIS process easier for those less familiar with it.

Actually, I run iOS5 on a 3GS. But I'm more cheap than stupid. Works fine, just a bit slow.tyndall wrote:Lobo Labs also reviewed his own app and gave it five stars saying "Works great!".

You can hire companies to write reviews for your new App. So if you see a lot of "Works great!" reviews then they are probably not genuine.

Sure call me stupid, yeah... Then try to defend your product by telling me "well I coulda hired someone else to write the review, but I was too cheap to hide my tracks, so I wrote a self based shameless review on my own" ....
Well done! You've just earned the "worse app designer of marketing of the year award"!
Seriously WTF?

Well aware of that Beef, but thanks for the heads up!
The fact remains that ultimately, anyone who bases/justifies themselves or the competition on being able to provide self based reviews is not going to earn my buisness.... Cui bono? Me thinks.

Re: eApis for iPhone
You can usually tell a genuine review from a sales pitch.
EIther way, I'm happy to see another pilot app on the market.
