Multi-sectorPRO feature

Flown several sectors today? Add them all in one go.

Tail number. Best when you flew the same aircraft all day. Enter the registration and pick the flights Wader finds from ADS-B.

Flight number. Changed aircraft along the way? Enter your flights one after the other.

Then add your crew and PF/PM roles, and import every sector into your logbook together.

One logbook. Synced everywhere.

Start on your phone. Finish on your laptop.

Because sometimes we just need a bigger screen. Your logbook stays in sync across all your devices, including the WebApp. Sync is included on the free account, not sold as an upgrade.

The WebApp goes further, with extra tools like the Career Area, Professional CV and Pilot Jobs.

Nothing to install.Just open any browser and log in.

Experience

Smart and easy interface.

ADS-B auto-fill does most of the work. When you enter a flight by hand, a few quick steps cover everything an international logbook needs.

The Wader flight form in six steps. 1, flight number, optional; tap the ADS-B button to auto-fill. 2, aircraft: tail number and type. 3, crew: quicker when you pick crew from Favorites or Last used. Estimated departure and arrival times are optional. 4, airports: from and to. 5, flight times: out, off, on and in. 6, Pilot Flying: one tap sets you as the pilot flying.

Automation

Automatic Night Time Calculation

Night time calculation is not the same everywhere. Wader calculates it automatically, along your flight track, according to your regulator’s rules.

FAQ

Quick answers to common pilot questions

These answers can help you switch to Wader smoothly and with confidence.

Is Wader really free?

Yes. The free account is a complete logbook, not a trial: unlimited flights, cloud sync across iPhone, Android and the web, automatic night time calculation, and export in global authority formats as PDF or CSV. Two things are metered: ADS-B auto-fill comes with 20 free flights and the import covers your first 100. Wader Pro lifts both.

What does Wader Pro add, and what does it cost?

Pro is $5.99 a month, billed annually at $71.88, and you can cancel anytime. It adds unlimited ADS-B flights, airline imports, multi-sector entry, signed logbook PDFs, recency control, logbook verification, aircraft tracking with terminal and gate, a smart weather forecast for your ETD and ETA, D-ATIS, airport busy hours, AI airport briefs, a time calculator, a professional pilot CV and stats report, AI connection (API) and priority support.

What happens to my data if I cancel or leave?

Your hours stay yours. Exporting is free on every plan, so if you cancel Pro every export still works, and if you delete your account you can export your logbook first and keep the file.

Can I bring my existing logbook with me?

Yes, and you do it yourself in the app. The Import Wizard reads LogTen Pro, ForeFlight, mccPILOTLOG, OffBlock, RB Logbook, Leon and airline crew systems, and any CSV, Excel or text based PDF can be mapped column by column. The first 100 flights import on the free account.

How does ADS-B auto-fill work?

Type the flight number and Wader matches it against live ADS-B data, then fills in the flight times, the aircraft registration and type, the airports and the runways. You just review it, add any details you want, and save. Every account starts with 20 free flights, and Pro makes it unlimited.

Does it work on my phone and on a computer?

Yes. Wader runs on iPhone, on Android and in any browser as the WebApp, with one account and cloud sync across all of them. Sync is included on the free account.

Which logbook formats can I export?

Global regulator layouts, each built on the regulation that governs it: EASA (FCL.050), FAA (14 CFR §61.51), UK CAA, GCAA, CASA, SACAA, ANAC for Brazil and the Latin American LAR family. Each exports to PDF, and CSV is there for your own spreadsheets. Which layout to use is your call, so check what your authority or employer asks for.

Still have a question?

Log less. Fly more.
