During day 2 of indoc, you'll get your Ipad with all the required manuals (Standard Operating Procedures, Aircraft Operations Manual, Quick Reference Handbook etc.). They will give you a Jetpubs chart with the flight deck layout as well. The study guide you got is a very good prep document for the oral - so refer to it often.

The systems training is done on a software called Ethos and it's pretty comprehensive, content rich and plenty of pictures/schematics etc. Don't waste your money on all the apps etc. The E170/175 is a pretty logically laid out airplane so don't sweat it ..

If you need to study for your ATP Written, by all means get the Sheppard App. After systems, you'll do about six sessions on the EFPT/GFS - essentially a non motion simulator with a realistic set of controls .. plenty of opportunity to learn systems, procedures and callouts.
