This release fixes an issue that caused weather information to be unavailable, and adds some long-overdue iOS 13 compatibility fixes.

2.3

May 14, 2019

- "Today" widget! Now you can view the currently active ATC facilities by swiping left from your device home screen or using 3D-touch on the app icon. - Get in touch! - added option to email support directly from the app (via the information tab). Email your suggestions, feedback and feature requests without having to switch to anything else - Diagrams - some basic reference diagrams on traffic patterns, airspace classes and IFR cruise flight levels - Dashboard now shows how long has elapsed since the weather observation was made Fixes: - Weather and ATC works again! - Some views were blocked from scrolling when search UI was present, this should be mostly fixed, if not completely - Fixed an issue where empty state for ATC on the dashboard would sometimes not present correctly Important note: - In this release I'm dropping support for iOS 10 to keep the code simple and easier to maintain going forward.

2.1.1

January 2, 2018

We've updated the app for the new IF servers. Enjoy and don't forget to leave a review, especially if you enjoy the app :)

2.1

October 26, 2017

This version focused a bit more on the polish and presentation. We worked on making the user interface cleaner and more consistent between views. Expect better colour consistency, higher-resolution icons, less clutter, and so on. We fixed some annoying crashes that were easier to diagnose with the greater number of users (thank you all for your support) and improved the internals. That's not all; since we're in the iOS 11 era, there are some refreshers for the Events, Controllers and Information pages. You can now filter the list of active ATCs by ICAO code (just pull down on the list to reveal the search bar). Events page has been given the same treatment. The Events and Information pages are now sporting the fancy new iOS 11 header to keep the app looking fresh. So to sum up the new stuff: - Filter ATC facilities and events with a new search bar - Updated UI with more consistent colours, better icons, new progress indicator and more - Fixed crashes (in particular for Refresh button and tapping on Runways row if the information hasn't finished loading) - Under-the-hood enhancements and performance improvements

  • Airport Charts

    I like the weather features that this app provides. It doesn’t really make sense how some airports don’t have charts. Like KOAK, PANC, and even KJFK. The database NEEDS to be expanded.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the feedback! The app uses legacy charts from LiveFlight (the first version they rolled out back in the day), - mainly because there hasn’t been a great data source otherwise. I’ll do a bit of research into whether this landscape changed any, and whether there are some more accessible services that I can incorporate.
  • Love the app

    Can you add flight plan feature!?

    Developer Response

    Happy to look into it! Thanks for the suggestion. Would you mind writing to me on the support email or tagging me on the IFC forums to elaborate a bit more on what you'd like to see from it? Thanks again for your interest and support! Glad you enjoy the app :)
