Hi… before I jump into this whole thing… I fly MSFS 2020 on an XBox Series X… does Navigraph work/integrate with XBox? Thanks
Hi,
Navigraph is being integrated into various aircraft on Xbox. For example, the recently released JustFlight Piper and also BAE 146 has SimBrief and Charts integration. Very soon there will be new versions of FlightFX’s HJet and Vision Jet released, which will also integrate SimBrief and Charts. More aircraft are coming.

Stephen
Great thanks! So once I subscribe, how do I link my XBox account? And how does it get installed?
Those supported aircraft will provide you with a way to link your Navigraph account. Normally they present a QR code which you scan with your phone to link. So all you need to do initially is to get one of the supported aircraft from the Xbox marketplace.

Got them already thatnk!
Ok. Here we go. Frustration. I subscribed. Jumped in Just Flight emphasized textPiper and logged in. Built a flight in the Navigraph app on my phone. When I try to upload the flight it says error. Simlink not running. Sitting on the runway for about an hour now trying to get this to work…
Hi,
Sorry for being a bit unclear. I mentioned SimBrief and Charts integration.
SimBrief integration means that you can build a flight plan using our flightplanning tool SimBrief and import that into the aircraft.
Charts integration means that you can view the Jeppesen electronic charts library in the aircraft EFB.
I did not mention Simlink which is needed for running moving maps on an external device, as this is not implemented by JustFlight. It will however be implemented by FlightFX so when those aircraft are released on Xbox you should be able to track your flight on your phone.
Sorry for the confusion. In general we are not releasing any features ourselves on xbox, only via third parties when they integrate our features in their aircraft, so therefore the feature set varies depending on the aircraft and developer.

Stephen
Ok big difference. That being said, all I can do is log in on the EFB… there are NO charts, no nothing. How do I get the charts to show on the EFB?
Is SimBrief its own app? Thanks
That is the test plan I built on my phone. Neither that or the charts show up in the EFB…
Hi,
There is currently no way to transfer a flight plan from the Navigraph Charts app to Xbox.
Yes SimBrief.com is a separate flightplanning app. I suggest you try it out.
For detailed information about how to view Jeppesen charts in Justflight I suggest you refer to their manuals, it is their product/integration. For example, see page 174 in the 146 professional manual on how to view charts in the EFB. Page 170 in the same manual describes how to import a flight plan from
SimBrief.

Good day, i woul like to know, please, if and when eventually there would be a possibility to use SimBrief/Charts on Cessna Citation Longitude on Xbox Series X version of Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Thanks.

Hello! What you are asking depends on two things:
- A Navigraph-developed “avionics plugin” for the Longitude
- A way for Navigraph to publish this plugin for XBox users
The first is already done in the form of our G3000/G5000 plugin, which has been out for a while now.
The second, however, is not within our powers to arrange since it is Asobo/Microsoft who decides which developers get to deliver their utilities to the XBox marketplace. We have requested the ability to add our plugins to the marketplace, but we have been put on hold by their team for more than half a year - as have many other developers who want to publish their plugins/mods.
This means that your question needs to be directed at Asobo/Microsoft, since they are the only ones that can answer it. We’ll make them available as soon as they allow us in their marketplace!
Kind Regards,
Malte
Dear Stephen,
I have an unlimited subscription to Navigraph and use Xbox for my platform. As well, I have mainly Apple products and was wondering, after looking at all the videos, is there a way to download the OFP into the classic FMC of the Bae146, or the first time do I need to put in all the waypoints/airways?
Also, as an Apple user is there no way to update the Nav Database, b/c at present it says that it has expired on Dec. of 2023?
Thanks for your time, I hope you can help out with these two powerful addons.
Cheers,
G
