I use SkyDemon on a Google Pixel 4a phone and during flights need to see time in the air so far, and distance travelled so far. Is there a way to view that? I've searched the UI but can't find it anywhere.

To see 'time in the air so far' I suggest that you:
1. Use your device's built-in stopwatch running in the background;
2. Use the aircraft's stopwatch, if it has one, or;
3. Use your wristwatch, if you have one (there are many aviation friendly wristwatches available at a reasonable price);
4. Use the Ruler Function (see below).

For 'distance travelled so far' I suggest that you:
1. Use the Ruler Function, which will provide Track, Time, Groundspeed and Fuel Consumption, or;
2. Divide Groundspeed by Time Elapsed.

Hope that helps.

                     Correct. I had overlooked the PLOG.
