I have been using SD without major issues on my Galaxy S4 for a few months, but since yesterday when I upgraded to 2.7.2 there have been some problems. I have had to kill the app many times after it appears to get "stuck" on pop-up menus such as "Open Route from Cloud", "Find Plates", "TAF" (in particular finding weather for a particular airfield) and a few other cases. The behaviour is that everything appears to be working normally, but the menu doesn't disappear when the action (such as opening the route) is finished. The back button has no effect and I haven't found any solution other than using the Task Manager to kill SD. This never happened with the previous versions, so I assume it is connected with something that changed in the latest version. It is slightly weird because the problem seems intermittent i.e. sometimes it doesn't happen, and then all of a sudden it gets stuck doing something that has just worked a few minutes ago. I have tried uninstalling SD and reinstalling from scratch but it didn't make any difference. Has anyone else had similar issues, or am I just out of luck with the new version on the S4? In which case please would someone let me know how to revert to the previous version?

I'm having the same problem on a HTC One.

Also, the text doesn't appear on some buttons (the buttons on the welcome screen show "Englis" (no H) and "I" (instead of I Agree)), and the text input field on the search form is wide enough to only see 1 character.

This isn't something we're getting widespread reports of, and I am at a loss to explain it right now. We will monitor the situation closely.

I'm still having the problem, which ultimately makes the app unusable for me. How do I revert to the previous version (which was working fine)? Thanks for your help.

P.S. I also have the text size problem that wb9999 reported above, although that hasn't changed in the latest version.

I don't have these issues on my old HTC Sensation (font size and closing pop-up menus all working fine). The HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4 have the same screen resolution (1080 x 1920), which is much higher than most phones. I wonder if that it is the cause of the issues that myself and OldDogNew are experiencing.

I bought the Sky Demon yesterday and I am disappointed with running this program on Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 - 8" with Android. After downloading AIP when I get into "Find Plates" the menu doesn't disappear when the action is finished. I cant back to the map. The back button has no effect, and there is no any solution other than using the Task Manager to kill SD.

Iam not sure but I think that problem occurs after downloading AIP data base. Even I download only 2-3 plates, I can't shut down the menu and go back to the map.

Could you describe the problem you're having in more detail please? You mention "getting into 'find plates'" but I don't understand what that means. Please decribe the exact actions you take, what you see, and what you expected to see.

Hi,

Same problem for me - Nexus 7 (2), Android 4.3, latest SD (2.7.2.27849)

This is what happens:

When a route has been plotted:

1, Click on Plates tab to get 'Plates' pop-up

2, Select (click) a PDF plate/chart

3, Display (I've used 2 types of PDF viewer - same result each time)

4, Return to the 'Plates' pop-up

5, Now can't get rid of pop-up as 'return' does nothing!

NOTE: If you don't display any plate you can return from the pop-up without a problem

Hope that help.
