This update fixes important issues from launch week: • Purchases & subscription restore now work reliably on iPad • Email sign-in: subscriptions are correctly linked to your account, settings sync properly • Fixed an error on the very first app start • Pilot weight & QNH can now be entered without issues (including 3-digit values) • Loading a saved flight during an active recording now asks first — no more mixed-up tracks Thank you for your bug reports — this is exactly how the app gets better every week!
