Guys, beta software sometimes crashes. That's because we are introducing new features and their stability is not yet fully evolved. If you don't want this instability, don't use beta versions.

Thank you for reporting the crash, which is an issue that has already been resolved ready for the next beta. ‌‌

Hi Tim I use a galaxy tab A with the latest skydemon version for  android and it won't open. Unexpected stop. Can you help me or direct me to where or how I can restore or reload a version of SkyDemon so that I may continue to use it. Thanks Tim I am a relative newbie . . .

I tapped the screen to cancel the alert whilst the map was re-drawing.  I received a message that SkyDemon was not responding and was invited to Wait or Re-start the program.  I selected Wait and after a few seconds normal performance was restored.

This is part of the same "slow map" issue that the latest full release has. So it appears all is not quite well with the beta in this regard.


I re-loaded version 3.7.0 today then went flying.  No problems on either flight (each flight approx. 1 Hr 15 mins duration)

Hey Paul how did you reload version 3.7.0 where did you get it . How did you do that . I am lost I can't open my version of SkyDemon to see which version it is to try and restore it . . .  I use a Galaxy tab A with android I am beside meself with worry . .. back to map watch and compass for me and may even have to cancel my subscription to SkyDemon.  . . Help anyone . . . .

Hi Groatie

M‌ake sure you enable "Download from Unknown Sources" and then go here‌ and download the .apk file and install in the usual way.

Groatie, we are only a phone call away. If you're encountering an urgent problem this forum isn't the best place to reach us, as we don't monitor it every single day.

Hey Paul how did you reload version 3.7.0 where did you get it . How did you do that?

Go to this page:

https://www.skydemon.aero/start/android.aspx
‌‌‌‌
S‌croll down to direct downloads towards the bottom. I'd suggest loading the straight 3.7. As has been mentioned, do this on your tablet and you can download it there directly, though as mentioned, you have to change the settings to allow installation of software from unapproved sources.

Hey Tim, I know, that a Beta is just a test. So my post was a report, nothing else. Stay cool.

Thanks


Beta 3.7.2.29635 works fine.

Thanks‌‌
