I have just been playing with the new circuit join feature on my iPad mini version of SD.  It could be very useful for sense checking, particularly if the workload is high.  One thing I did notice is that the SOH Join option seems to give LH circuits only even if I specify the circuit direction as RH.  Am I doing something wrong?

Showing the circuit direction (and dead zone) is a great memory aid and help for positional awareness.

However, I fail to see the benefit of having multiple joins selectable. If I can't fly a 90deg downwind join given the downwind leg and direction I have no business operating an aircraft. And the additional assistance provided by the colorful arrow is minimal and, in my opinion, doesn't outweigh the complexity introduced by a lebgthy menu.

That said, the VRP search function near an airport is a great addition!
