What's New in xPilot Sky 1.3 • Optimized for iPhone Duo: xPilot Sky adapts seamlessly whether your iPhone is open or closed. • Default location: Set a fixed location, like your favorite flying field, and switch between GPS and your default location with a single tap at the top of the Weather and Forecast tabs. • Siri and good-weather notifications use your chosen default location. • If your location isn't available, the app automatically shows the weather at your default location. • Fixed: At night, the limit check now shows "Dark" for visibility instead of a misleading visibility distance.

Thanks a lot for the feedback! A setting for the default location is a great suggestion – I've noted it down and will include it in one of the next updates. Thanks for taking the time to let me know! If you have more feedback, feel free to reach out via the support link on the app's App Store page – always happy to hear it.
