Navigraph Simlink
Navigraph Simlink is a macOS companion app that connects supported flight simulators to Navigraph Charts for live moving-map position display.
What is Navigraph Simlink?
Navigraph Simlink is a desktop companion utility for flight simulation users who want to connect their simulator session to Navigraph Charts. It runs in the background on macOS and sends aircraft position data so your location can be shown live on airport, procedure, and enroute charts while you fly. This helps with taxi navigation, situational awareness, and following procedures more easily during complex flights. Simlink is used alongside Navigraph’s charting tools rather than as a standalone planning app, and it is most useful for pilots flying in supported simulators on another computer or while viewing charts on the same Mac, a tablet, or the web. It is part of the broader Navigraph workflow for chart viewing and flight monitoring.

- Support moving-map use on airport, procedure, and enroute charts

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Navigraph Simlink is legitimate companion software for flight simulation workflows. It normally runs in the background while you fly and may use network access to sync your simulator position with Navigraph services, which is expected for moving-map features. Removing it is generally low risk, but live aircraft position features in Navigraph Charts will stop working until it is reinstalled. Keep it signed in only on accounts you trust and close it when you do not need simulator connectivity.
Recommendation: Keep Navigraph Simlink if you use Navigraph Charts with a supported flight simulator and want live moving-map features. If you no longer use that workflow, you can remove it without affecting macOS itself, though your chart integration and aircraft position display will stop working.
