WFS unveils paperless iteration of myWorld app
An editing toolbar in WFS' myWorld app enables users to annotate documents with notes while inflight using search, view and edit functionalities. They can share via email, SMS text, Messenger, AirDrop and AirPrint.
Developments to myWorld have been customer-driven.

World Fuel Services has released an updated version of its myWorld app. The update features customer-driven features that enable users to go paperless in the cockpit by replacing their paper package with an editable digital copy. With the latest release, users can download and annotate delivery packages, set optimised route calculation options and compare multiple calculated flight plans.

myWorld app users can now download a PDF of the delivery package, annotate it and share it directly in the app. With this enhancement, users can view packages and immediately go offline for managed and self-serve trips. The interactive editing toolbar enables users to annotate documents with important notes while inflight using search, view and edit functionalities. They can also share documents in flight or at the end of a trip via email, SMS text, Messenger, AirDrop and AirPrint. The delivery package PDF is the third option in the app that pilots have to manage the flight in the cockpit, along with the delivered package and the app’s electronic flight bag feature.

The myWorld app has become a popular application for pilots and dispatchers since its full release in 2018. It was developed with pilot testing and feedback, and each release continues that same path.

“As we continue to enhance the myWorld app, we gather pilot feedback to create the newest features, like replacing a paper delivery package with an editable digital copy,” says Jeff Briand, World Fuel's vice president of global trip support. “As a result, this release is entirely customer-driven.”

Another significant customer-driven feature is the ability to view and compare multiple calculated flight plans easily and use the interactive editing toolbar to make notes directly on the PDF, select different viewing modes and share with others.

The optimised route switch is a speed enhancement that significantly reduces the loading and calculation time of a flight plan. Users can turn off the optimised route calculation and use published or stored routings without the system sending requests in the background. The option can be set as default for all trips or set per leg.
