If you are an Infinite Flight enthusiast, In-Flight Assistant isn't just an app—it's a mandatory upgrade. It transforms the sim from a quiet, solitary experience into a living cockpit. The voice recognition is the standout feature; being able to actually speak commands and have your co-pilot respond makes the immersion levels skyrocket. It effectively removes the need to constantly fumble with menus while you're trying to nail a difficult approach.
The V-speed callouts and the GPWS warnings add a layer of safety and realism that the base simulator lacks. Hearing 'V1... Rotate' or 'Five hundred' in a crisp, clear voice makes the flights feel professional. It’s a niche utility, but for the flight sim community, it’s the difference between playing a game and operating an aircraft. Every penny spent on this is reflected in the quality of your flight hours.
Available on: iPhone, iPad, iPod
Version 2.05Wed Aug 09 2023
Happy summer! Here's a version which should fix the VNAV issues which were related to the new API.
Add a whole new dimension of realism to your Infinite Flight experience with this polished, third-party add-on to Infinite Flight, the best mobile flight sim on the App Store!
Hear over 30 co-pilot voice samples during your flight, whether it's takeoff callouts like "V₁", "Rotate!", or "Positive Rate", or whether it's warnings when speed limits are being approached, or confirmation callouts when setting flaps or gear settings.
In-Flight Assistant is NOT a flight simulator itself but rather requires Infinite Flight to provide voice callouts and realistic automated warnings for your flights.

====================
HOW IT WORKS
Start In-Flight Assistant, then launch Infinite Flight on the same device - you'll hear a confirmation that In-Flight Assistant is connected. It will now be watching your flight and provide the callouts as you configured them within the app. It's that simple!
====================
CO-PILOT CALLOUTS
The following callouts are provided:
• "80 knots"
• "V₁"
• "V₂"
• "Rotate"
• "Positive Rate"
• "Let's watch our speed, captain" warning when taxiing or flying too fast
• "Gear up/down" confirmation
• "Flaps at XXX degrees" / "Flaps Final" confirmations
• Spoiler status
• 4 voices, including Mark 'Skyhawk Heavy' Denton!
• Autofill feature for v-speeds (NEW)
=============
PASSENGER ANNOUNCEMENTS (IN-APP PURCHASE)
* Welcome aboard announcement
* Arm doors for departure & cross-check
* Safety briefing
* Flight attendants, take seats for takeoff (when turning on strobes)
* "You may move about the cabin now, etc."
* Descent beginning
* Welcome post-landing
=============
RUNWAY AWARENESS AND ADVISORY SYSTEM (IN-APP PURCHASE)
* "APPROACHING RUNWAY 12R", "ON RUNWAY 12R"
* "CAUTION TAXIWAY"
* "FLAPS FLAPS"
* "UNSTABLE UNSTABLE"
* "TOO HIGH TOO HIGH"
* "TOO FAST TOO FAST"
* Many more..
====================
AUTOMATED GPWS WARNINGS, FLIGHT ALERTS, SIMPLE VNAV (IN-APP PURCHASE)
Experience fully-featured GPWS warning callouts such as "TOO LOW, GEAR", "SINK RATE", or "PULL UP!" - in accordance with the specification of the real-world Honeywell MK VI GPWS system - with all 6 modes supported, including turboprop alternative settings (automatically detected), Steep Approach Bias, Flap Override settings, and more.
(NEW) Also provides a waypoint proximity alert system and a simplified "VNAV" system where you can set altitudes and speeds you want the autopilot to have per waypoint!
The following callouts are provided:
• Autopilot disconnect warning sound (Airbus / Boeing)
• "GLIDESLOPE" both quiet and loud, depending on how low you are
• "SINKRATE"
• "PULL UP! PULL UP!"
• "TERRAIN! TERRAIN!"
• "DON'T SINK"
• "TOO LOW, TERRAIN"
• "TOO LOW, GEAR"
• "TOO LOW, FLAPS"
• "APPROACHING MINIMUMS"
• "MINIMUMS" or "MINIMUMS, MINIMUMS" (configurable)
• "BANK ANGLE" based on aircraft type, altitude, speed, autopilot setting, etc.
• "RETARD, RETARD" when landing in an Airbus
=============
VOICE COMMANDS (IN-APP PURCHASE)
Using a headset mic, use voice commands to control many of the airplane's systems! Once it is set up, In-Flight Assistant will be listening for your voice to say things like "gear up", "set heading 2-3-0", and much more, and your co-pilot will set the autopilot settings for you!
IMPORTANT A headset and a quiet environment is recommended for best accuracy. The stronger your non-American accent, the less accurate the recognition may work.

In-Flight Assistant is a powerful utility app designed specifically for the Infinite Flight simulator. It provides a realistic flight deck atmosphere by adding a virtual co-pilot and realistic audio triggers. Key features include voice command recognition, automated callouts for V-speeds and altitude, and a full Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS). It also includes passenger announcements to make every flight feel like a commercial operation.
Voice recognition for cockpit commands
Full GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning System)
Automated V-speed and altitude callouts
Realistic passenger and crew announcements
Background integration with Infinite Flight
Open In-Flight Assistant alongside Infinite Flight. Set your V-speeds for the specific aircraft you are flying. Ensure voice recognition is enabled to allow hands-free communication for gear, flaps, and autopilot settings during high-workload phases of flight.
You can use SmoothTrack with any game that supports TrackIR, including Flight Simulator.

The app acts as a bridge between the user and the simulator, providing auditory feedback and responding to voice commands. It automates technical checklists and provides safety warnings, allowing the pilot to focus on flying the plane.
Currently, In-Flight Assistant is specifically built and optimized for use with Infinite Flight.
