🤷‍♂️ Okay... I don't have iOS devices and don't use FF, so I guess I don't know what you're asking for. Regardless, if you're asking for something new in iFly, then that probably belongs in a post in the Feature Requests forum.

Yes: Flight Plan > More Options > Altitude Planning.

Sounds like a fun adventure--thanks for sharing! (Bummer about the tree!!!!)

Congrats on the new rating, Tony!!

A "heading bug" setting is not a bad idea. However, in the meantime, the way I handle "long-term" vectors is by rubber-banding the route shown on the screen, using the compass rose to approximate the heading. It's generally close enough for the situational awareness I am using iFly for. Once...

I'm not recommending you perturb anything close to your check ride, but once you're past that, you might consider other solutions. I love iFly, but personally I find the flight plan filing function to be sorely lacking. I'm hopeful that it will be greatly improved one day, but in the meantime...

Why not just add it as an extra waypoint at the end of your flight plan, after your primary landing site? If you decide you need to divert, just tap the Direct-To button next to your alternate. If you land at your primary...then your last waypoint just becomes moot.

Definitely sounds like a bug. Have you submitted a bug report?

"To no effect" perhaps, but to complete the whole story, your prior comment was not ignored--it was explained at the time that this forum software simply does not support that function.

Whoops--good point! 😁 On Android, I know how to find the log files to submit a report manually, but I don't know how to do that on iOS. I would suggest calling Adventure Pilot support during business hours and see if they can offer you any help over the phone.

iFly v13 is brand-new, and includes a major revamp of the graphics engine. It has undergone many weeks of testing, but the test cadre does not include every combo of device and operating system, so it's possible you have stumbled across something new. One silly question: Have you rebooted...

What iOS version and iFly software version are you running? Also, when you see the black screen, what happens if you tap on it? (Do you get a QuickView window?)

I have actually made a request for the reverse, as I have participated in charity events where multiple pilots were flying a defined circuit, and the .circuit was emailed out as a Foreflight flight plan file. I was the odd man out who had to manually input the waypoint lat/lon data. But that...

It's because the links are to the beta test subforum, which is not public. However, AP is getting close to releasing the next version which has some improvements to the Avidyne integration features.

I even tagged your name (@smoke) on the post in the beta forum to draw your attention to it. I was trying to avoid posting a link here because it won't work for the non-beta users, but I guess I have to...
