Anyone got this problem? Ipad version works OK until I go to setup/charts when it just hangs. Only remedy is to reboot the ipad and forget chart updates.

Maybe I am missing something.

Have updated the app to latets verison.

Here's the problem:

During a flight yesterday using the iPad and SD, I had 2 occasions when SD dropped out and I think we all accept that this can happen. However, I do think that it is worth considering how a recovery from this unfortunate situation can be as quick and smooth as possible when “in flight”. Consequently, it is necessary to relaunch SD on the iPad; reload the ROUTE which takes time; resulting in less concentration on the job of flying the plane at that time when I'm now totally lost as SD isn't working!!!! (OK, I know let's go back to the basic VFR training -- VORs, NDBs & MAP to ground features, etc -- in other words dinosaurs)

Here's a suggestion:

Would it not be possible for SD on every launching to detect any earlier “unclean shutdown”and restore the last known ROUTE. That would means a single operation to full recovery, less time looking down at my lap solving problems and more time looking out to enjoy the flight. (Sorry, scanning for other aircraft etc, etc -- correct answer)

That's my idea of flying -- I like it!
