Now that AP is making great strides in supporting multiple platforms, and is introducing affordable multi-device data subscriptions, there's an opportunity to improve the customer experience via "sync" options.

It would be nice to have the option to:
- maintain the same set of charts across all devices
- sync flight plans across devices
- share logged data across devices
- have wi-fi enabled devices prompt for updates/syncs when required

Of course ain't nuthin' ever easy. Some users may want all charts on device X, but only a subset on device Y, where others might want all their devices to have the same subset of charts, so the ability to maintain different sets would have to be preserved. Similarly, you wouldn't want to delete or replace a flight plan on device x based on changes from device y without ensuring that's what the user wanted, etc.

But for my use case, I could see pulling out my Nexus 7, updating charts and flight plans, then pulling out my 720 and telling it, "go get the stuff you need to be just like my Nexus 7".

That'd be nice!

Cobra,

Great feedback. Each of your items and more is already on our development list. We are working to get on each platform, then mirror each to look and work the exact same... Then we will start developing these integration / sharing capabilities. Keep the good feedback coming.
