Since the last SD release 3.6.3.28529 it has become virtually unusuable on my Samsung Note 4. Even typing the password sees huge delays between typing the letters and them appearing on the screen and screen rebuilds as you zoom in and out are very slow. I have just update the Os to version 6.0.1 but if anything that has made it worse. Can't see any issues on other apps and seems fine on my IOS device. Can I go backwards to the previous version?

I see similar issues with my Samsung S3 Galaxy and SD version 3.6.3.28529, although I have yet to use it in flying mode
The previous SD version (3.6.2) seemed much more responsive when displaying/presenting the charts etc. Chart "re-drawing" in the current version is "erratic" and not very "smooth".

Also, the magenta line of my route sometimes tapers off in thickness to one side of the display. Moving the chart around does seem to get it back to normal. Don't recall seeing that in 3.6.2

Can you please clarify the instructions for downloading/installing the previous version on an Android smartphone device. Does it overwrite the current version installed via the PlayStore? I haven't loaded any programs/applications on my S3 in this manner before.

Thanks I have reinstalled 3.6.2 and it works fine, then I reinstalled 3.6.3 and it all went downhill again. The initial startup takes considerably longer and trying to log in is very frustrating as it takes an age for the letters to appear in the login boxes. Actually running the program is virtually impossible.
Will reload 3.6.2 again and wait.

Have tried it on a Nexus 7 and that seemed OK I think.

In application manager select Skydemon and uninstall. Download the earlier version from the bottom of the page that Mike pointed to and then just select once downloaded. Say yes to change settings temporarily to allow from unknown source when prompted.

On my Nexus 7, I have noticed the tapering of the magenta line, but I can't say that I have noticed any of the other issues mentioned on two recent flights to France.

I've also had very slow response and tapering magenta lines on my Samsung Tab 2, but as my Nexus 7 2013 has been fine, I haven't tried downgrading to 3.6.2 yet on the Tab2. I've also seen the tapering magenta line in the Great Circle Beta on my laptop.

I also had the tapering lines on the Note and the Nexus So have taken both back as I am off on holiday tomorrow and can't risk it failing.

After you did the downgrade, don't forget to go into the app store, open up the page for skydemon and click on the menu icon (the 3 dots in the upper right corner) to then disable Auto-Update! At least I can now confirm that it is slow again after the app was auto-ugpraded last night from 3.6.2 to 3.6.3. .. so downgrading once again to keep it usable Wink
