Universal expands uvGO platform with new iPhone App

Demos are available at EBACE 2017


GENEVA, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwired - May 16, 2017) - Universal Weather and Aviation, Inc. announced at EBACE 2017 that it has developed an iPhone version of uvGO, its beginning-to-end mission management platform that allows users to plan, build and manage successful trips worldwide. The iPhone app version, which will be released to the Apple App Store in early summer, is the third version of uvGO, joining the iPad app and online versions.

"Since the initial launch of uvGO less than two years ago, we've received overwhelmingly positive feedback and seen tremendous adoption from our clients," said Guido Groeschel, Vice President, Global Product Strategy, Universal. "The iPhone app version of uvGO is a continuation of our commitment to evolving our technology solutions to work the way our clients work, reducing their risk and stress."

With uvGO for iPhone, users will have a very similar look and feel to what they already have in the online and iPad versions. They'll be able to access critical trip information and capabilities such as flight plans, worldwide weather, service conformations, airport/FBO information, UVair fuel pricing, Satcom Direct (SD) FlightDeck Freedom datalink, and more. Because it's a true native app, and not a web-app, information is synced and stored locally for easy offline access.

uvGO is available for any operator that either works with Universal® Trip Support Services, carries the UVair® Fueling Card, or has a Universal® DIY online flight planning subscription with or without SD's FlightDeck Freedom datalink added.

Operators attending EBACE2017 can receive a demonstration of new uvGO iPhone App, as well as the other versions of uvGO, by visiting Universal EBACE2017 exhibit #X88. Or, they can learn more online by visiting http://universalweather.com/uvgo.
