We released a new version of apps today.
Summary
This app update includes improvements to camera check in the checklist - now we attempt to capture a test photo to ensure camera is in functional state before the takeoff. We have begun beta testing Google Maps (only available on iOS) – its open beta and you have control to turn it ON/OFF. Other updates include bug fixes flight log upload and syncing plans from mobile to desktop.
iOS
New:
- Checklist now takes a test photo to ensure camera is functional before takeoff

You can now easily turn on Google Maps yourself within the app. Please note that this is a beta and has known issues which we hope to resolve in subsequent app updates.
