Having read the thread above, it would seem that despite using only using 3 devices (they are all mine and and not shared) I'm breaking a rule as they are all ios (2 iPads and one iPhone -don't ask!). If one was an android device I'd be ok!

Hi
I have the same issue: 1 iPad Mini Retina, 1 older iPad mini as backup and my iPhone.
As you said, according to the licence described I would be fine using one Android device instead of one of the iOS-device.
I don't use the PC-version at all, since it doesn't exist for my Mac.

I use both iPads for longer flights, while I take only 1 iPad for short local flights.

Let's suppose that I'm flying with my main iPad and the iPhone. => If my iPad quits, I will not be able to use the iPhone as backup, because I can't login without an Internet-connection.
The other problem is the use of long secure passwords, which is quite a pain on small devices.

Why should I be allowed to use 2 Android tablets and 2 iPads, but not 2 iPads and 1 iPhone?
It would be nice to have another type of restriction: Perhaps a total amount of 2 devices of one type: 2 PCs, 2 tablets, 2 smartphones, independent from the operating system.

Regards, Eric

I too have had the logout/login issue as I have two planes (each with a nexus 7.) A desktop, a laptop and my android phone as a backup. (The backup being the one to "break the rules") Would it be possible to allow us to "register" our devices against our account? Then say limit a personal subscription to a number of devices (say 5?) If people want more charge a little extra for each device registered.

It would also allow us to bypass the login, which can be a pain if you have long e-mail/passwords to enter on a small device.

I personally don't want to, just wondered if there was anything other than a personal sub? (I seem to remember seeing something on the website previously but can't find it now. (It's probably all academic anyway as the flying school would take a million years to get such a proposal through the committee!)

We can't please everybody. Give us a phone call if you'd like to discuss alternative licensing arrangements though, we may be able to help.

I'm pretty sure there is a rate for Flying Clubs and the like. Check the main site, I'm sure I've seen something in the past.

I'm also having the same issue of being constantly logged out. This is a new issue having never occurred before I renewed a week or so ago.


Having read the thread above, it would seem that despite using only using 3 devices (they are all mine and and not shared) I'm breaking a rule as they are all ios (2 iPads and one iPhone -don't ask!). If one was an android device I'd be ok!


I (very) occasionally use the PC at the flying club (to print stuff out as they can't get air print to work) but *always* log myself off.


I can see why you don't want people to share but am not too chuffed at falling foul of the rules due solely to the OS of my devices rather than the number.


As an aside, are there any rates for flying club use, or for every member of a flying group? (Just pondering for the future)

Ps the buttons to submit etc are very unresponsive in iOS. I have to copy the text, email it to myself and post from a MacBook!

In that case, I'm happy that I'm using SkyDemon within the spirit of the rules. All these PCs are mine (my home PC, my home laptop and my work PC) and the only person that uses SkyDemon on them is me.

I'll just learn to live with occasionally having to log back in again. Now I know the reason for it, I can certainly live with the occasional inconvenience.

Thanks for the input.

The spirit of the rules is that your personal subscription is for use by you only. Unfortunately some people get together to break these rules so we have had to impose the enforcement detailed above, which we believe quite reasonable.

Ah yes, when you explain it like that, it does sounds like it's behaving as it should.

As long as I'm not breaking the spirit of the rules, I'll carry on as I am.

No, I mean that if you log in to SkyDemon on a third PC, your first PC will become no longer logged in (producing the message you have seen) and will need you to log in again. If you do so, the second PC will become logged out. And so on. It sounds like everything is behaving as it should be.
