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.

We make our recommendations based on our support burden. Android gives rise to far, far more problems than iOS does. Your average iOS user is at least 300% as delighted with their hardware purchase as your average Android user*. I'm not saying it doesn't have its place, mind you.

I fly an aircraft with bubble style canopy too, and never ever had any problems reading my iPad's display or had my iPad (Air) shut down during flight.

I've been thinking about buying an Android device in the future for financial reasons, but decided to stay with iPad and iOS the other day after reading about all the problems Android users experience with their devices.

I originally bought the iPad because I wanted to use Jeppesen FliteDeck VFR, which has better ground detail than SD. However, after being disgusted by the iPad's poor outdoor performance I knew I had to go to android. Jeppesen doesnt support android so I switched to SD, and I really like it. The point is there are some of us that use SD primarily because it supports android, so it'd be a shame if the android version is being treated as just an afterthought or is actually a shoddy port of the iOS version.
