Hi all,

Using registered SkyDemon on Android tablet and cell phone.

I would like to know if it's possible to know the last time/date my SkyDemon data for Notams, Weather and Maps was updated. In the Weather I can, of course, look at the METAR and TAF's times, but for Notam's I would like to be certain I'm using the most updated information available for servers. I have come across with error messages (white window with red letters) concerning information updates but I can't seem to find a place to see if I have the latest data for my route. 

Is there a place in Skydemon I can make sure I'm using up to date information or, what was the last time for a sucessfull update?

Thank you,
Pedro Sousa

Because there is absolutely no value in displaying such a timestamp. SkyDemon does all sorts of syncing and data for one FIR may have synced but another not. All you should care about is whether the NOTAM briefing is valid, or out of date (invalid). That is what we tell you, very clearly, with the presence of a big red warning in the latter case.

Tim,

I think we are just looking for assurance that we are using the absolute latest updates when we takeoff or loose internet connectivity prior to the flight as there is no way to force a sync. I understand it's a complicated process and a specific date/time is not possible by your explanation but maybe something like this (sorry for the reference to another software) would be enough:

Thank you,
Pedro Sousa
