Hi,
I see the topic of having a stopwatch in SkyDemon has been brought up a few times over the years ... to me, that seems like a really handy (if not essential) feature. I don't see a stopwatch in the current version -- are there plans to add it? If not, what might be the reasoning reasoning against it? (I don't see clutter as a problem if it is a small floating button that can be shown or hidden)
Thanks,
-- Terrence

Hi,
Specifically, VOR procedure turns and holding patterns (unfortunately, still needed sometimes) ... I am aware that I don't really need SkyDemon for this at all, but it would certainly be helpful to be able to stay within the app, with a big benefit being the ability to monitor your flight path and traffic while doing the procedure.
PS: On iPad/iOS, there are no really good options for a small floating timer/stopwatch, because of iOS limitations ... you can either open a timer app and split the screen, which obscures a lot of SkyDemon, or you can use a floating timer app, but those can't be resized or moved arbitrarily. And in both cases, there are multiple steps involved fiddling with the iPad, which are quite distracting while flying the plane.
Best,
-- Terrence

Perhaps a simple wristwatch is the simplest solution.
