Agreed! I just posted this in another thread. And the ADS status instrument delivers a different purpose. I would argue that John, like me, wants a very noticeable pop-up that updates are not occurring. Just last week I was on a flight and it quit getting ADS-B data, which I didn't even...

Still hoping...:)

I noticed on multiple occasions that iFly will not update METAR and TAF after network comes back online. It requires a force-close (sometimes twice) to update. A simple 'Update' button at the top of each page would suffice. You can see in the screenshots below that even though I had data and...

Actually this is not true. I was on the ground yesterday and it would not refresh until I force-closed the app...twice. You can see in the screenshots below that the METAR and TAF was over two hours old. My internet connection was good and I even sat on the page for over three minutes and it...

Often when I click on an airport and click on weather, it hasn't updated since the METAR and TAF. It would be nice if there was a 'Refresh' button at the top to force it to pull a download. Just yesterday I opened it and the last update was about two hours earlier. I know it was because I was...

I don't have that option. I am just trying to get the elevation of the point I touch, but all I get is MOA info.

I am trying to get data on a point on a map but it is within an MOA so every time I click on it all I get is MOA information. Is there a way to disable MOA selections?

Yes, but with FF and GP you get a timeline dot that you can slide left/right that shows your position in both elevation and plan view. Then you can click on the map and update the flight path.

So close, but the problem is you can't 'play' it like in FF, where you have a timeline to see where impacts are, then adjust them real-time via the map. But it is close and will work for now until maybe v14! :)

I am trying to plan a 3 hour flight over new terrain and can't figure out how the terrain advisor works. I thought it worked like FF but I may be wrong. What I would like to get is a horizontal view of my elevation AGL throughout the flight, similar to the screen shot below. Is this possible...

I LOVE the airport diagram overlay on the Map view, but it causes a significant problem at non-towered airports. Although the runways lay over nicely, none of the taxiways show, which makes the feature of limited use for pilots like myself who mostly use non-towered airports. So the...

Although I have a mostly glass panel, I still don't have a real-time display of ft/nm. Foreflight has this, would love to have it in iFly. Could benefit having this both in climb and descent.

Any word when v13 will be available for Windows?
