Hey!
I wonder why APPR dosen’t work on android. I crash almost every time when it’s time to land and I can never use APPR witch is very annoying, especially when I’m Grade 3 with almost 300 hours flight time.
I’ve watch many videos on YouTube and I don’t even have all those things that shows up on their screens.
Is this game built for iOS only, or what?

Are you landing with a runway that has ILS? If so, did you set it as NAV1?
Can you send us screenshots of what you are seeing?
Also, welcome to the community!

Which airport are you trying to land at? If there’s no ILS, there’s no APPR.

If the runway doesn’t have ILS, then unfortunately APPR won’t work.
Here is a step by step check list to use to activate auto-approach (APPR). It’s a much more detailed and realistic procedure now, in comparison to the past iteration.
The only type of approach you can use auto-approach for is an ILS approach. Once you are within 27nm of your destination, you will need to do the following to tune to the ILS frequency to gain the ability to activate auto-approach.

Go to runways
Click the runway that you’d like to land …
This may help in the future

I will send screenshots of what I see later. I’m flying now and I notice that every time I wanna send a text message or read emails, the live server will disconnect.

That might be because if you come out of the application mid flight you disconnect.

Whatever you do - don’t leave the app mid-flight

Were the attempts at using APPR in those airports successful? They should be since their runways always have ILS. You can always end the flight and look at your replay.

He said he tried EGLL, KLAX, etc to no avail.
Sounds more like you’re not tuned in to the ILS or are getting the “ILS out of range” message?
