The feature contains even less useful data than the "bearingless targets" feature people are accustomed to from FLARM and PilotAware devices, and is in my opinion, very poor and offers nothing to users other than potential distraction.

This week at Aero Friedrichshafen, uAvionix and PocketFMS are excited to announce collaboration on inter-operable Electronic Conspicuity with skyEcho 2 and EasyVFR 4. EasyVFR 4, currently in beta and planned for commercial release Q2 2019, will integrate with skyEcho 2’s native capabilities to receive ADS-B, FLARM, and, for the first time, alert pilots if an aircraft is nearby with only a Mode C or S transponder. Thanks
