I think Kindle is in the UA App store and preloaded.

How about EZCCS gets approved. That would be nice.

Having to re-enter all of your passwords after 8 seconds of inactivity is for your own protection :D

I’m just happy useful apps like the Gyro Compass an Reimburse Me are still available. God forbid something like EZCCS (which I use every day, every leg) would replace those in the company App Store.

That’d be like allowing safari access to CCS over cockpit WiFi: DANGEROUS.

OK. Bad example perhaps.

How about My Radar? Gives you an instant radar image of the area around the airport, or anywhere else you see fit. Nice to see what kind of crap is stacking up in your departure path before you depart. Gone. You see my point though. Simple, harmless and often beneficial apps are verboten. Another confidence building maneuver.

I believe there’s a way to submit a request for apps, but we can’t just make up our own rules and expect to be covered.

I got it. You can be trusted with the jet and the humans, just not the iPad. The whole charade just seems a bit silly to me.

If you log out of airwatch, all your apps are still there.
