  • Sweep: what the App Store build is, where the clock goes, and how to stop following Four drifts found by checking the wiki against main: - Offline and PWA said flatly that there is no iOS package, two sections above one describing the App Store build in detail. Nothing is published yet and that is the account, not the work: the embedded build, the privacy manifest, the listing metadata, the screenshots and the CI check are all in the repo. Says so, in both languages, and documents featureOtaUpdates and the files that implement the updater. - The Map still said the clock is dim, never hidden. True on a desktop; a phone takes it away now, and a live position puts it away everywhere. - Follow me documented leaving a watch only as a side effect of pressing Follow me. A follower asking "how do I stop following?" now gets the three ways out, and the reason there is no leave button: the watch is the address. - The local storage page was missing the build and OTA bookkeeping keys.

  • docs: the profile comparison, the expanded view, and a readout that fits A recording can now be drawn against the plan it was flown to -- and against any saved route, without loading it, which is the part worth writing down: the route on the map is not replaced to answer a question about a past flight. Both lines share one distance scale, so a flight that turned back early looks short rather than being stretched to agree with its plan. Both kinds of profile gained an expand button, and the live readout now trims itself to the panel rather than being cut by it -- with the order it drops fields in, since that is the part a pilot would otherwise have to infer. The compass heading reads ~045° now, not 045m. The old mark sat beside an altitude in feet and read as metres. And the panel's copy of the map clock appears only when something on screen answers to a clock: a waypoint or an ADS-B aircraft has nothing that does.

  • docs: catch the wiki up with what shipped Follow me was the urgent one: the page still described a link that a stop deleted, that expired after 12 hours, and that a different aircraft code replaced -- none of which is true since the link became one per device, kept for good. It also recommended against the default it now ships with, and never mentioned New link, which is the only way left to take a link back. Also: the density-altitude slider that no longer exists (it follows the map clock, and the runways now sit beside it); the map clock itself, which was documented nowhere though every timed layer answers to it; the chart lock that refuses CVFR/ATS/Low Alt with a route drawn; note rotation; the profile of a saved route and of a recording, with its key and its PNG; the library's two frames and Show filter; and that "download" means the share sheet on a phone. Hebrew mirrors kept in step throughout. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016GmLy5kufzfY8roPqZUBeZ

  • An Auto zoom page: every automatic zoom, and the key behind it The zoom rules were spread across four pages and mostly not written down at all: the follow bands on The Map, the fit caps nowhere, the satellite and magnifier zooms nowhere, and the double-tap rule only in a commit message. A pilot asking 'what should happen at zoom 15 outside a CTR' had no page to read. One page per language, listing what triggers each zoom, what it caps at, and the gist key that moves it -- plus the two cases that surprise: a live position beats fitting a plate, and an inverted band changes nothing rather than snapping.

  • Follow zoom bands, and the Freq table as it now reads The Map gains what following does to the zoom: the first fix and the follow switch both frame the view into a band you can fly with, 12-15 in a CTR and 10-14 outside, clamped rather than set -- and the resume after a pan deliberately does not touch the zoom at all. Which of those two moments applies is the part that was invisible from outside. Frequency Changes catches up with the table: columns reordered to lead with the value in force, rows named for their field and service, the aerodrome filter, the sideways-scroll hint, clicking a NOTAM source to open it with the table left open behind, and פמ״ת for the AIP in Hebrew.

  • docs: cover the recent map, charts, print and overlay changes - Extra layers: CVFR routes now cover all twelve fields that publish a route plate, two of them printed rotated; document the tick-snapped georeferencing and scripts/georef-plate.py. - The map: the in-flight controls wear the chart's own VOR symbol and a compass that reads out the track. - Route and legs: the turning point is offered only on a route that comes home. - Print and export: Fit page to route picks the sheet, Clear map takes the frame with the route, and the X-Plane FMS format is listed. - Charts modal: one width across both screens, back button and category chips stay on screen. - Offline and PWA: what the loading screen draws and how long it holds. - Waypoints and notes: the Show hotspots toggle and direction-aware hiding.

  • wiki: document Terrain vs altitude (EN + HE) The toggle moved from View/Set to Extra layers and stopped being a row-only control: it now shades the ground that reaches the planned altitude and marks the legs and waypoints the plan does not clear. Written up in Extra layers, with the part that matters most: the shading uses the VFR clearance (500 ft open, 1000 ft congested), NOT the MSA buffer -- warning on terrain + 1000 ft marks routes flown every day. Also what it judges (the line you draw, not the published corridor) and what it cannot see (no obstacle data). Corrected while there: the grid is 200x85 cells at ~1 km, not ~2 km; the MSA row formula uses msaBufferFt rather than a hardcoded 1000; and The map's overlay list no longer claims MSA is toggled from View/Set.

  • Say the AI assistant is off on the live site, not merely hidden by default featureAssistant ships false and the deployed gist does not override it, so there is no launcher on navaid.supino.org at all. The page now opens with that, and explains how to switch it on (?tune=1, or the gist for your own copy). Cross-references in The map and Hidden tools match (EN + HE).

  • Helicopters: the base chart is switched off on the live site The deployed config sets layerEnabledHelicopters=false, so the Layer list has no Helicopters entry — the wiki listed it as an available base map in seven places. Each now says it exists but is not offered live, and where to turn it back on. Also separated it from the helicopter ROUTE overlays, which are a different feature and still available (they ship off, defaultShowHeli=false). EN + HE.

  • Say which two map controls only exist while recording or showing location Both are gated on gpsRecording || gpsLiveOn, so a connected simulator alone does not raise them — 'while a fix is driving the map' read wider than the code (EN + HE).

  • Document the in-flight controls, the press/release inspector rule, and the new tunables (EN + HE) The map: the bottom-right control column (orientation, follow lock, assistant launcher, bearing dial), the touch-screen centre crosshair, and the rule that no press opens the inspector until it is released. GPS: the altitude alert cap, the 15-second notification life, the compass fallback below 3 kt, heading-up orientation, and the layout lock while a fix is driving the map. Tuning panel: the cumulative-kite and freq-callout angles, and a table of the in-flight constants with their defaults. AI assistant: the launcher ships hidden; how to turn it on.

  • Document the route-direction picker, turning points and the return path shipping off EN + HE kept in sync.

  • Document add-mode kite exemption and CTR-leg kite behaviour Covers the behaviour shipped in #1551: - add mode never grabs a kite (taps always place a waypoint) - a kite that is not drawn is not hit-testable, including a CTR leg's default-hidden kites - the cumulative kite's tip clears the waypoint circle it points at EN + HE kept in sync (The-Map, Route-and-Legs).

  • wiki: English counterparts for seven pages, and correct four false claims Eight pages existed only in Hebrew, so an English reader had no equivalent for those topics. Seven now have one — The Map, Route and Legs, Waypoints and Notes, Inspector, Bearing dial, Airport charts, Fuel — and each Hebrew page's 🇬🇧 link now points at its counterpart instead of at Home. The eighth, Layers-he, duplicated Map-Layers-he (the same base-layer table in different words), so it is now a pointer to the canonical pages rather than a second English copy of them. Writing them meant checking the Hebrew against the code, and four claims did not survive: - **Fuel** described an aircraft-type dropdown (C172/PA28/SR22), tank capacity, a reserve setting, AvGas/Jet-A1 and a surplus/deficit readout. The aircraft model is `{gph, taxiGal}` — none of that exists. A pilot could have planned fuel believing the app checks reserve against endurance. Both pages now state what is computed (leg = time × gph, total + one taxi allowance when departing a field) and, explicitly, what is not. - **Inspector** listed a free-text note field on a waypoint plus distance-from-previous, bearing-to-next and a sequence number. The real panel has name, coordinates, satellite thumbnail, VOR ref, add-freq-change, delete and reset; those other three are Flight Plan columns. Corrected, and the leg panel (speed, heading, inbound/outbound altitude, MSA, reset marker, add identification point) documented for the first time. - **The Map** claimed 238 VFR reporting points and green waypoint circles. The CVFR set has 172, and the discs are pale yellow (`waypointFillColor`), amber when selected. - **Route and Legs** offered a per-leg free-text note. There is no such field; annotate with a map note or a leg-anchored identification point. Also fixed a Russian word that had slipped into Bearing-Dial-he ("лחיצות случайיות" -> "מקריות"), and added the new pages to the sidebar beside their topic neighbours. 79 pages, every internal link resolves, and the only remaining Hebrew-only page is the merged Layers-he pointer.
