Hello,

that's the first time, SkyDemon crashes on my ipad-mini (iOS 9.3.1)
When I zoom in the arrival chart of Sylt (EDXW) the program crashes.
It happens only with this Chart?
Has anyone an idea?
How can I read the crash-report to submit?

Regards,
Mike

It occurs only on the ipad, not on my Android device.
And it happens only with the whole approach chart whith all the text not with the approach chart for flying.

It sounds like your device has a problem rendering that specific PDF. If you've already tried what Shifu suggested above (i.e. re-downloading the plate) there's nothing we can do, really, since PDF rendering is done by iOS itself. I would suggest deleting the plate from the local cache, and SkyDemon will therefore no longer try to automatically zoom in and render it.

Incidentally, I came from Sylt 4 days ago Smile. SD on my Ipad mini with iOS 8.3 crashed when zooming the Sylt Approach plate. However, I had this when simply panning the SD map. Vaguely guessing, this might be related (at least on my device) with iOS problems which affects all apps:SD crashed on every flight (simply quit) without leaving a Crash log in the appropriate file directory. There are however a lot of "JetsamEvents". It is said that they relate to low memory (RAM) problems. Strange when SD is the only app running.

 I did the following:
-removed any map not neighboring my country, this gave 900Mb instead of 290 Mb free flash space
-rebooted my Ipad mini (which I normaly don't need to do for months)
Since doing so, I only had one more Crash.

In my experience this one happens when you got low on memory, especially on longer routes including loading lots of plates while overflying. IOS is a bit more crash prone, but this is related to thermal instability in hot environments. Android devices give you a black plate window instead - a proper indication you're on low RAM.

p.s.  ...this Sylt you came from, was it hot down there WinkWink
