Software piracy!

So I have been for a while pondering why I have way more chart downloads than purchases (and purchases from countries where SkyCharts should not be for sale!).

Turns out there are websites with cracked versions of Apps available on AppStore!

Thank you to all who actually have purchased the App! I will soon be adding a way to only provide data to legally purchased versions – unfortunately that means you will have to register. Sorry! Stay tuned.

AF/D & TPP

Yikes, once downloaded all PDF’s take 3.5 GB!
So I guess I will not be hosting those, and any downloads will be directly from the FAA website – unfortunately that means its possible it works to download charts but not the AF/D (or the opposite).

Pinch/zoom..

Yes, I’m well aware there is no pinch/zoom, but the problem is that if I let the UIScrollView handle the pinch/zoom gesture it eventually ends up in a bad state. Hence I disabled that for now until I find a way to work around the bug in Apple’s underlying code. I have been unable to do that so far though, and I have not heard anything back from Apple either. Sorry!

Working on 1.1

So after some feedback on improvements I’ll do some changes and release 1.1 before resuming work with adding AF/D and TPP.

I have also spent a lot of time trying to workaround the pinch/zoom bug, but nothing seems to work so far. I’ll shift focus a little bit and work on other things. And maybe I will even hear back from Apple at some point ?

If you have some suggestions please let me know on the forum!
