Screens and Gestures

Blipscope is driven entirely by the touchscreen. There are three top-level screens, and a small indicator shows which one you're on.
The live top-down radar view — see Radar Display for everything it shows.
Every aircraft currently in range, as a scrollable list. Rows are colour-coded to match the radar: watchlisted contacts show in amber, and a pinned contact shows in white (the pin always wins). Tap a row to open that aircraft's Aircraft Details card.
At-a-glance statistics about the traffic Blipscope is currently seeing.
| Gesture | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Tap | Radar | Open the nearest aircraft's detail card |
| Tap | List | Open the tapped row's detail card |
| Tap empty area | Radar | Clear the pinned aircraft |
| Swipe left | Any screen | Go to the next screen |
| Swipe right | Any screen | Go to the previous screen |
| Swipe up / down | List | Scroll the list |
| Tap | Detail card | Flip photo page → data page, then close |
| Swipe up | Detail card | Pin ("track") this aircraft and return to the radar |
| Any other swipe | Detail card | Close the card |
Horizontal swipes cycle through the three screens in order, so you can flick left repeatedly to loop Radar → List → Stats → Radar.
