12 Positive User Reviews for Extended Rest Operations
Does what is says
The guys who wrote the negative reviews are morons. You don't need the app to build in time between the rest breaks. Just wake the guy up 10 minutes before the end of his break. Duh. The calculations here are exactly what I needed. Not the best crew rest app, but it's good.

This is the only crew rest app that is completely adjustable. Easy to use even at 2am body time
Only Rest App you’ll need
I went through three other crew rest apps trying to get the functionality I had with my old app, that iOS 11 killed. :(
This is the only one with versatility and adjustable alarms. Don’t waste your money or time on any other app!
Awesome App
The app was exactly what I wanted. A simple yet effective way to input off time , flight time from the flightplan, have the app calculate the on time, and then calculate rest periods based on the Crew composition or rest strategy. The developer used my suggestion to allow the app the calculate on time based on the flight time. Some of the other available apps did not allow the flight time to be used, I instead had to do the mental math. Thanks for listening to my suggestion. It’s my one and only
Great app!!
This is a great app if you are a long haul pilot. Easy to use. No math calculations required. I gave it a 4 only because it needs the alert added for the final rest period which I understand is coming. I highly recommend this app!
....now that the latest revision has the alert added for the final rest period, I have changed my rating to a full five stars.
Great App
This is a good replace for the app we all used for years, cruise rest, I still doesn’t have all the functions of Bob Steinicks app yet, but I’ve made some suggestions and they were very acceptable to them, like a countdown timer while you on break. Next is we need a ratio application to the beak app but that’s harder to explain. But for now, this is the only go to long haul crew rest app on the market.

This App is great!
This app allows you to change the ratio of different rest periods, allowing a targeted L or S. The one thing the app is missing is the ability to have a set amount of time between the rest periods, i.e. the minute one rest period ends, another starts. You can’t set 5 or 10 minutes between periods, but it is easy mental math to apply this yourself.
Needs changeover time
Intuitive and easy to use. However, there is currently no option to set the amount of time between rest periods (eg time to allow the sleeping crew to wake, and get into the seat and for the working crew to go back, prepare their bunks, and begin rest). Even a 5, or 10 minute fixed option would be great. As it is now, I always have to ask the other pilot if he/she has a crew rest app. Mine takes too much mental math. Please add this feature!
Superb Break Calculator
This program has it all! Love it! I didn’t think I would be able to find a replacement for my previous program which calculated breaks. Couldn’t be happier!! Highly recommend.
Please add 2 functions
Great App! I use it every time I fly. I would absolutely rate it 5+ if you would add 2 functions:
1) a countdown timer (nothing like being able to see how much time is left on break rather than having to do time-zone math while on rest)
2) Apple Watch App.
Thanks!
I like the app, but...
We need the ability to do a lot of differing rest schedules. There’s SLLS but not LSSL. We need these to be customizable or at least rearrangeable. We also need a buffer setting between periods because it’s easy to implement.
Works well
Simple easy to use, straight forward calc for crew breaks. AAL 787 international FO, China flyer
