Misleading traffic alert messages

Hi I am using SD 38172 in iPhone connected to a Pilot Aware device with bearingless targets displayed.

On a recent flight I was surprised to receive an alert on screen warning about traffic "behind". Firstly I was not sure how you could tell that the traffic was behind being bearingless and more worryingly when I played the track back using Flight Aware the aircraft was actually ahead.

Thanks

I've experienced this strange message as well. It comes and disappears that fast, I hardly can read it.

It says something like 'Traffic at 12 o'clock behind' or similar. I'm sure I've read "12 o'clock" and "behind" in the same message.
