Dear Skydemon team.
although I like your product very much, I have a bit of a problem with one point:
Building up the screen after manually moving it or changing the scale takes too much time.

- I am using SD version 3.6.4.20819
- Samsung Galaxy Tab-S with 2GB RAM (SM-T700), Android 5.02
- Two products installed: Skyguide (CH) and DFS (GE)
- Multiple AIPs installed (but is that influencing the speed? should not, as that is off-line pdf-information opened only on demand)

- I know that displaying terrain information requires a lot of time - I usually switch it off, as it takes about 10-12 seconds screen reproduction time.
- Weather information display is switched off
- it still takes 3-5 second to build up the full screen information after a manual move or scale change
- Ending all other application (apps) before opening SD does not really bring much of improvement

How could I best improve the speed of image build-up?

Thanks for helping responses. (Please don`t tell me to buy IOS products)
F.

There is a known issue on Android with specific devices and operating systems where the latest versions of SkyDemon are behaving very slowly. We have not yet been able to determine what has caused this. Please try installing the 3.6.2 version from our Android page on our website and let us know if SkyDemon then speeds up.

At the risk of engaging your wrath, I will point out that this sort of thing just doesn't happen on iOS and that iOS is by far the best platform on which to run SkyDemon.

Tim,
I gave version 3.6.2 a try at the following conditions:
a) Scale 1: 500k
b) Weather display = OFF
c) geopgraphy informaton displayed: all but trees; terrain information ON or OFF (see below)
d) all other apps terminated before opening SD

The difference in screen build-up time between SD versions (3.6.2 vs. newest) is about +1 second for the newest one - negligible.
In both versions additional terrain informaton requires the same additional time (about +5 seconds).
With terrain information: 7-9 seconds build up time; without terrain info about 3 seconds.
Loading approach charts LSZF or EDNY or EDDF: 11- 12 seconds
