On the iFly device, while on the weather page, I touch an airport to get the latest live weather info. The select box that pops up has the weather info under more options. At least on the weather mode screen, it would be nice if the weather info option was in the first box to pop up like it is in the Android app.

It would also be nice on all platforms if the METAR's were to be the default page, instead of TAF's. Many airports that have METAR's available don't offer TAF's and in those cases you don't even get the weather for the airport you selected.

Thanks,

David

I agree. It would be better if the default was metars. In actual flight, that's usually what you're looking for. On the ground, it's less urgent.

Good feedback. We actually initially default to the TAF, since they stay valid longer, but once you select a METAR, or Winds, it will default to what you last looked at. I hope this clears any cofusion. Have a great week.
