ForeFlight Reports iOS Update Resolves GPS Issue

Previous Version Had Affected Some Functionality

The iOS 8.4 update that was pushed out Tuesday has resolved GPS issues that cropped up with the previous version for ForeFlight software.

"We are happy to report that the GPS accessory compatibility issue that resulted from the Apple iOS 8.3 update is resolved with the iOS 8.4 update released this morning," ForeFlight said in a customer notice that was released to the media. "We have performed a quality review of the Bad Elf GPS Pro, Bad Elf GPS Pro+, Dual XGPS150, and Dual XGPS160 on a Wi-Fi iPad running iOS 8.4 and these devices perform as expected. Stratus 1 and Stratus 2 devices were not affected by this issue. We have also started our general ForeFlight Mobile compatibility testing of the final version of iOS 8.4.

"If you wish to resume use of your affected GPS accessories, then you can upgrade to iOS 8.4. If you do not need immediate access to the affected GPS accessories, then you can opt to wait until ForeFlight completes its compatibility testing of the final iOS 8.4 release. We will follow up with an ‘all clear’ notice when that testing is complete."
