I can understand that the new option to save routes automatically to the Cloud is a welcome feature for many users.

‌‌I'm dispppointed that switching off the option completely removes the ability to save routes to the cloud at all. Opening them from the cloud is possible, as they are displayed on the combined view, but saving them is not possible.

‌‌Somehow the implementation feels half finished. I've discussed this with a couple of other user pals, and they, like me, like to separate locally saved routes from a 'master' in the cloud, and regard the current state as a backward step. (It also reinforces my requirement for folders, now that I have even more routes to scan through when wanting to open one!)

‌Another little featurette is that on the iPad, sometimes the 'Open' option only displays a very short pop up which only contains a few routes - it's as if it thinks a keyboard is being displayed, although I haven't isolated the exact circumstances under which it happens.

Pete, automatic download of high-res terrain is an opt-in feature, disabled by default. 99% of our users will never use it.

O‌ur customer support does make previous PC versions available I believe, but the demand isn't exactly strong.

Hi Tim, yes, re high res terrain, I liked the option of downloading the bits I wanted, rather than downloading everywhere I thought about going automatically. .........‌So I didn't see the "All or nothing" approach as an improvement.
T‌hank you for making 3.7.1. available to me :-))
