iGlide update for iPhone 6 (4.7 inch) and iPhone 6 plus (5.5 inch)

Just wondering what the timing of the next version of iGlide which will hopefully take advantage of the new iPhone 6 form factor.

I have been using iGlide more and more and really enjoy flying with it. Its UI is BY FAR the easiest.

Thanks in advance.

I have been flying with the Butterfly Vario Display S for several years and it is totally sunlight readable. It is as good as my Ultimate Le and Le57 screen. I believe the larger displays are the same technology as the Display S and will be excellent in the sun and vastly superior to the apple products. They new instruments are supposed to be available this winter.

Who knows maybe the new instruments will support US contest rules right from the beginning.

By the way does anyone know if iGlide supports US rules?

Hmmm. What instruments/computers do not support US rules? What exactly is not supported?

iGlide has been great for me with US tasks (if that's what you mean). Statute miles, feet for start and finish heights, etc. Turn areas of up to 30 mile radius (check ;-)), etc.

e.g. 2 min start, MAT task

Sean,

Were you able to integrate the vario data from your V7 with the iGlide app using Air Connect? I know it will integrate with FLARM. If iGlide doesn't integrate with a vario is it still able to accurately estimate wind since it doesn't have airspeed input?

Thanks,
Craig

I up graded my iPad 3 to IOS8 yesterday I just have Iglide lite, lost my airspace and any maps I've downloaded but not my way-point files but I can't see them either. As of this morning I still can't down load them.

You probably need to turn on Location Services in your iPhone system preferences. Then allow iGlide to use location services. IGlide seems to filter the available countries/maps based on your position (at least, in my testing).
