Hi Tim,

Is there any update on this?
The problem is still there - on a Windows computer I am able to "download all countries" in AIP, while on Android the option is not there.
I've attached the screenshots - for all countries I cannot do anything other than select a country and inside a country I actually CAN download AIP.
Got the latest SkyDemon (unable to install anything newer from Google Play).

Thanks!

Regards,
Alex.

'There is a Download button in the AIP section of each Country screen. It's a little cloud with a down arrow on it.'

Sorry to have started a separate thread on this. I did use the search facility but it missed this link.

Looking at Android version 4.0.0 I cannot see anything other than the individual country download clouds mentioned above. Is there an integrated download prompt on its way or are we stuck with having to visit each individual country for updates?

I fully agree with the former people who replied. Please give us back the button "all country's" download.

With kind regards
Freerk

I concur with the earlier comments. This seems like a major step backwards.
I liked the way it was set up previously that related the AIPs that would be "downloaded" with the charts that had been downloaded.

One specific comment to the new set up. I can download the UK AIP but when I look at "All countries" I see also Guernsey, Jersey, and the IoM - but I'm not able to download the e.g. Guernsey AIP. I assume that's because it's part of the UK AIP, but I shouldn't need to assume.

Please may there be a return to the one-button function that "downloads" the AIPs pertinent to the charts I have down loaded. I say pertinent, as I know in the past there were some decisions made as to what was pertinent - e.g. including the Danish AIP when the Germany chart was downloaded - for a reason I forget.

Finally, I've put the word "downloaded" in inverted commas. Most of the time the function "Download AIP" doesn't mean that. It means "update the previously downloaded copy to the latest AIRAC cycle". It would be good if this could be tidied up.

Just to add: 

I finally got a TestFlight notification for the 4.0.0.397 version on my iPad yesterday!

Graham, I don't think you're looking at the latest beta (or the public version).

Aah thank you that’s interesting. I was looking at 4.0.0.396, and I now see that .397 is available on Beta. I didn’t get a TestFlight notification as I  would normally, so missed it.

However, my current public version is .396, and again, while a later version is present in the App Store, i haven’t received the usual update notification as per all other apps. I’ve had to manually search the App Store to find the newer version.

It seems that something odd is not triggering notification of new versions in both TestFlight and the App Store. 

Edit to add: Airfield plates are downloaded as well. Thanks!

The Windows version is fine, and works as before.

There is a Download button in the AIP section of each Country screen. It's a little cloud with a down arrow on it.

Yes, but this is per country - there is no button to download all countries at once. Inwould have to go through 12+ countries each airac.

Plus the accessibility issue of the plates...

Sorry Tim, I'm struggling to find that. (iPadOS/iOS 17.6.1)
