Hi
I am very pleased with skydemon and use both iPad, PC and web versions. However, when using it for navigating on the iPad, I miss a night mode. I just came home from a night VFR flight but had to cover the very bright screen most of the time to be able to see anything outside the aircraft.
Regards
Karsten

Coming back to this old topic after a rather unpleasant experience of the bright screen. What I did: disabled automatic adjustment on my tablet (Huawei Android device) and set brightness to minimum, switched to the high contrast map style. Good enough for enroute. Pain points:
All the tabs (weather, airfields, etc) have a white background
Scratchpad has a white background
PLOG has a white background
GAFOR routes show up differently (dashed yellow lines) while panning <- actually it looks like a bug because other charts styles won't show GAFOR at all during panning
3rd party charts don't have any night mode. Technically it would be possible to alter the colors in the PDFs but yeah I could agree, this would require advanced logic and a potential place for mistakes...
