Automatically Updates Downloaded Documents When New Versions Are Available

ForeFlight has released new Documents features which include a more flexible interface with support for nested folders, documents on the iPhone, and automatic document syncing between devices.

ForeFlight provides hundreds of freely-downloadable documents from official government sources, including the FAA, NAV CANADA, and EUROCONTROL. Provider-specific documents are also available with select subscription add-ons, such as Jeppesen’s global enroute manuals and documents from European chart providers like DFS, Skyguide, and Rogers Data.

Download individual documents, folders, or entire drives, and ForeFlight will automatically update them when new versions or documents become available.

Document binders and drives give you more ways to organize and access your documents. Add documents to custom binders to easily group them however you prefer, or utilize ForeFlight’s built-in organization by downloading and accessing documents in the same drive.

Users have the ability to connect Dropbox, Box, or Amazon S3 accounts to securely deliver document files and updates via the cloud. It’s a great way to keep checklists, POH, local procedures, and more up to date and always available on all devices. Cloud Documents are available with Pro Plus and Business Pro subscription plans and above.

Additionally, users can add nested folders within a Cloud Document drive for even more flexibility. Download and receive automatic updates to selected folders ... perfect for multi-pilot accounts where not all users need to download the same set of documents.

The enhanced Documents view is now available on iPhone with the same great features and flexible interface as on iPad. The Documents tab replaces the Imagery tab in the center of the Navigation bar, while the Imagery view is now accessible at the top of the More view on iPhone.

Manually import documents via AirDrop, iTunes, or email, then access them or add them to custom binders from the Imported drive. ForeFlight supports a wide range of file types for importing and viewing in Documents: pdf, tiff, tif, jpg, jpeg, gif, png, bmp, bmpf, txt, doc, docx, xlsx, xls, pptx, and ppt.

Users' documents and related information like annotations and bookmarks are included in ForeFlight’s Sync system, allowing you to easily pick up where you left off when moving between devices. Documents that are imported on any device are automatically backed up to ForeFlight’s secure cloud infrastructure, ensuring access on any device and protecting against accidental data loss.
