Wingtrex vs LogTen Pro

LogTen Pro is a respected electronic pilot logbook, if you live in the Apple ecosystem and don't mind the subscription. Wingtrex Pilot logs the same flights, tracks the same currency, and adds a pilot network on top. It's free, it runs on any device with a browser, and there's a native Android app on Google Play, with iOS coming soon.

Cost

LogTen Pro cost vs Wingtrex

LogTen starts free, but only for your first 50 flight hours. After that it's a recurring subscription, with plans starting around $79.99 per year and the full-featured tier at $129.99 per year. Over a decade of flying, that's more than a thousand dollars spent keeping access to your own logbook.

Wingtrex Pilot is free. Log unlimited flights, track currency automatically, and build a shareable pilot profile without a subscription. Wingtrex makes its money from organizations that use Wingtrex Manage, not from pilots logging their hours.

Looking for a LogTen Pro alternative?

Pilots usually go hunting for a LogTen Pro alternative for one of three reasons: the subscription, the Apple-only lock-in, or the feeling that a logbook this personal shouldn't live in a silo. Wingtrex Pilot answers all three: free, browser-based on any device, and connected to a network of real pilots. Your logbook keeps the numbers the FAA cares about and the stories worth sharing: photos, remarks, milestones, and the pilots you flew with.

To be fair to LogTen: professional pilots who need airline schedule imports, complex duty-time reports, or an Apple Watch app are well served there. But if you're a GA pilot who wants your hours logged, your currency watched, and your flying life in one place, Wingtrex Pilot does it without an annual bill. And if you fly with a club or school on Wingtrex, your reservations become logbook entries automatically. No double entry, ever.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does LogTen Pro cost?

LogTen (formerly LogTen Pro) is free for your first 50 flight hours, then requires an annual subscription, starting around $79.99/year for Basic and $129.99/year for Pro as of mid-2026. Wingtrex Pilot is free.

Is Wingtrex a good LogTen Pro alternative?

If you want a clean digital logbook with automatic currency tracking and no subscription, yes. Wingtrex also adds a social flight feed and pilot network LogTen doesn't have. If you need airline-grade schedule importing or deep report customization, LogTen remains the specialist tool.

Does LogTen Pro work on Android or Windows?

No. LogTen runs on Apple platforms only: iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. Wingtrex Pilot runs in the browser, so it works on Android, Windows, iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and there is a native Android app on Google Play, with iOS coming soon.

How does Wingtrex compare to the ForeFlight logbook?

ForeFlight's logbook is a solid add-on if you already pay for a ForeFlight subscription for flight planning. Wingtrex Pilot is free, works outside the Apple ecosystem, and adds a pilot network and club sync. You can also use both, logging in Wingtrex while keeping ForeFlight for planning.

Can I import my LogTen Pro logbook into Wingtrex?

Yes. Wingtrex Pilot imports LogTen Pro CSV and tab-delimited exports directly, along with ForeFlight, MyFlightbook, and any generic CSV with column mapping. Duplicate detection keeps re-imports clean, and every batch can be undone with one click. Your data can leave too: CSV, ForeFlight format, PDF, and full JSON backup exports are built in.

Can I use Wingtrex Pilot without joining a club?

Yes. Wingtrex Pilot works completely standalone as a digital pilot logbook. Club sync is a bonus: if you ever fly with an organization on Wingtrex Manage, your reservations flow into your logbook automatically.
