Please wait to update if you want the latest published NOTAMs, FAA did not release it in time. I’ll post an update when the new version is included.

UPDATE Oct 16, 02:32:00Z – if you download now you get the latest published NOTAM (the 553 page document!)

Also, version v3.4,v 3.5 and v3.6 are now obsolete.
Please update to v3.7 to get new charts.

 

v3.6 released

Now with native iPhone6 and iPhone6 Plus resolution!

If you have one of these devices, you want this, but unfortunately the airplane icon may disappear.

If this is the case, please go to Settings->SkyChartsPro->Icon Type and select Helicopter or Triangle. You need to kill&restart the application for this change to take effect.

v3.7 has been submitted to Apple, but it currently takes 11 days for new versions to be reviewed.

 

iOS8

Please hold off updating to iOS8 until v3.5 of the app has been released, which may take a couple of more days.

If you however read this too late, make sure you enable “Location Services” for the app. Press Home, then
Settings->Privacy->Location Services(ON)->SkyChartsPro(Always)

If successful, when the app runs, you will have a little arrow in the upper right corner (next to the battery level).

More of the new iOS8 settings are explained here.

Since there are GUI problems in iOS8 (with v3.4), please refer to the help here for what the buttons are.

Hopefully v3.5 will be out on the 22nd.
