I was flying along quite happily on the 22nd September when this huge danger area suddenly popped up right on my nose.....there was no name to it and London Info had no clue what it was. Then it disappeared. Then it reappeared....
Had just updated‌ my app that morning. Any idea what was going on and has it been addressed? Would have emailed tech support but no facility for pictures.

Have you located the NOTAM, and is it still there? If you could help us identify it, we could look into the presentation by attempting to reproduce what you saw.

Yes - that looks like it.
The NOTAM was in the list I checked preflight but we weren't actually going anywhere near those areas listed so I discounted it.
It was the sudden popup when we were about a minute from the circle that got my attention. I thought I had missed something in the NOTAM and there was a new danger area. We spoke to London Information and Aberporth and neither had a clue what we were talking about.....surely, if there was a new procedure, they should have/would have known?
Probably nothing different you could do - it is a very bad presentation of the NOTAM. The cicle doesn't actually correspond to the location of the listed danger areas!
