Wader on the Web
Wader runs in any web browser at logbook.waderaviation.com. It is the same account and the same logbook as the app on your phone or tablet: a flight you log, import or edit in one place shows in the other.
The web is the best place for big jobs on a large screen, such as importing a logbook, changing many flights at once or exporting in your authority’s layout. Flying day to day, with the Briefing and your friends, happens in the app.
Signing In
Section titled “Signing In”The first time you open the web app, it asks Have the Wader app?
- Yes, I have the Wader app: sign in with the same method you use in the app: Continue with Google, Continue with Apple, Continue with Facebook, or your email and password. Using another method can create a second, empty account.
- No, create a new account: create your account with Google, Apple, Facebook or your email.
Not sure which method you used? Tap Not sure which sign-in method you used? Find out and enter your User ID. You find it in the app in More › Profile & Account.
Forgot your password? Tap Forgot password?, type your email and tap Send reset link. The link works for 30 minutes. If your account signs in with Google, Apple or Facebook, use that button instead.
On a computer, the sign-in and sign-up pages also show a QR code above the store buttons. Scan it with your phone to get the app: it opens Wader if it is installed, or the right store if not. Click the code to enlarge it.
For more, see Signing in & Account Access.
Finding Your Way Around
Section titled “Finding Your Way Around”The menu on the left has Dashboard, Logbook, Import, Export, Aircraft, Airports, Jobs, Career and Preferences, with Support below. Your name at the foot of the menu opens your Profile, where you also manage your subscription.
Keeping the web and the app in step
Section titled “Keeping the web and the app in step”- Changes reach the cloud straight away. To see flights you just logged on your phone, tap Refresh above the Logbook list or reload the page.
- Your logbook preferences, such as your default function, time format and how overnight flights are split between months, are the same on the web and in the app. Change them in one and the other follows.
- On the web, the Deduct relief time switch on the Dashboard and on the Export page is one setting. If your web totals look lower than in the app, check whether it is on. See Dashboard.
- If the web and the app still show different flights or hours, see Finding Missing Flights.

To change many flights at once, see Fixing or Updating an Import.
Searching the Logbook
Section titled “Searching the Logbook”The airport search in the Logbook has three options: All, Dep and Arr. Choose Dep to see flights that left an airport, Arr for flights that arrived there, or set Dep to one airport and Arr to another to see one route. Airport search leaves out simulator sessions and previous experience. Both are still in your logbook.
The cards above the Logbook that total your hours for the current filters include your previous experience.
Stick Time Before Landing
Section titled “Stick Time Before Landing”On a flight with more than two pilots, the web flight form lets you log your Stick time before the flight has a parking time. Once the parking time is added, on the web or in the app, Wader turns it into your relief time: block time minus your stick time.
What Is in the App Only
Section titled “What Is in the App Only”These are on your phone or tablet, not on the web:
- The Briefing tab: your next flight on a map, Smart TAF, NOTAMs, D-ATIS, alternates, checklists, and aircraft tracking with gate and delays
- Social: friends, the Friends map, messages, the Feed and shared flights
- Multi-sector logging and ADS-B search by tail number. The web flight form can fill a flight from ADS-B by flight number.
- ACARS scan, Recency, Logbook Verification and the Time Calculator
- Signing a flight for another pilot
The airport pages on the web show the METAR and TAF, but not NOTAMs.
