Hi,

I am a new user, apologies if this question does not make sense or has been answered before - I have looked in the FAQ and briefly through this forum but did not find a solution.

I registered today and started planning a flight on my Windows PC using Internet Explorer. I changed some settings (home airfield, map options) and at some point stopped planning. I then downloaded the app on my iPhone and found that it did not remember any of my settings. So I re-entered home airfield, continued to play around and at some point switched to my MacBook. Starting the web planning in Safari I again found that settings were reset to defaults (home airfield and other adjustments gone).

How can I make my settings persistent so that they are automatically available on any device I use SkyDemon?

Thanks!

The reason for the current behaviour is that the behaviour you are expecting is actually quite a lot of work to implement, and it hasn't appeared very high on our list of things to do.

Thanks for the reply! I think it would be great if it would be implemented. I haven't quite figured out my final workflow yet (lots of learning at the moment) but I was thinking of SkyDemon as a window into my flight plan. My expectation was that any change in plan or settings would immediately be mirrored on all devices.

I was also confused by the need to actually save a plan. It seems that SkyDemon works very much transaction-oriented with explicit saving or publishing of the data.

To get back to the settings: I did not find the option to save or load settings in the Web client (Windows, Internet Explorer). Where is it located?
