2026-06-16: Aero App – Apple App Store Update Notice

We are aware of an issue affecting the latest Aero App release v1.2602 on the Apple App Store. Although the update has been released, some users currently running version 1.2510 may not see the option to upgrade through the App Store.

Suggested workaround: If you are unable to update, please delete the Aero App from your device and reinstall it from the App Store to download version 1.2602.

This issue only impacts upgrades through the Apple App Store. Users who sideload the DOD (DOW)‑signed version 1.2602 are not affected. The issue originates on Apple’s side and does not affect all users. We have contacted Apple and are awaiting further information.

2025-10-20: Aero App Android Data API

The Aero App Android Data API provides an interface for accessing aeronautical data. Sample code and related API documentation can be found on ACES 2.0. Refer to the Knowledge Base for more information.

2025-10-10: macOS Compatibility and ADS Support

The current version of macOS, macOS 26 (Tahoe), supports a very limited selection of Apple computers released prior to 2020. Apple’s next release, macOS 27, will no longer support any of the Intel-based Mac computers. As a result of this discontinued support, ADS support for non-Apple Silicon Macs will discontinue. To ensure continued compatibility and receive new features, we strongly recommend upgrading to an Apple computer with Apple Silicon, such as those with M-series processors, and install the upcoming Apple Silicon version of ADS.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to aeroappsupport@hiltonsoftware.com.

For a full list of supported devices, please refer to Apple’s compatibility guide – https://support.apple.com/en-us/122867.
