SeeingSkySimFly Linker
SimFly Linker is a PC application that acts as a bridge connecting SimFly Pad and your simulator. It gives SimFly Pad access to the game's real-time data — every screenshot and recording is tied to your flight data, so you can review every moment of your flight.
How it works
SimFly Pad is the mobile app — flight checklists, in-flight photography, flight recording, and cockpit control. SimFly Linker runs on your simulator PC and connects the two: when your PC and your device are on the same network, SimFly Pad connects automatically. Cockpit control and FDR features are enabled by installing the Core and FDR plugins from inside SimFly Linker.
Supported simulators: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 / 2024 and X-Plane 12.

Connection trouble? Use the Connection Diagnose feature in SimFly Pad and SimFly Linker, make sure both devices are on the same network segment, and try disabling VPN software on your PC. See thedocumentation for the full guide.
