SkyDemon's France chart is about 15mb or less, so you'd be talking about a few hundred megs even with every French VAC downloaded. I'm not in front of my iPad but you're certainly right. Checking on my iPhone, Skydemon app size is 30.6mb and data/documents weight 534.3mb. Will check on my iPad this evening (and update my slide). Maybe have I other countries downloaded. ‌ T‌hanks !

Group: Forum Members Posts: 29, Visits: 92	About the size taken by Skydemon on my iPad. I had Switzerland & UK installed. I have also some PDF document. Even after unselected the CH and UK country, "Document & Data" from the storage info on my iPad still display 1.86Gb. No big deal on my iPad, but size is un-explained so far. Vincent B.
