Then you have to repeat the same process again for each file. The "home screen" on Content Locker was useful for quickly navigating to the important stuff after updating.

I've also had the issue where you leave a document to go to another app, and when you come back it's at the start of the section. Ex: briefing a RNP approach guide, moving to the actual approach plate for reference, then returning to Aerodocs and it's no longer on the RNP approach guide. Or pull-up deice checklist, move over to look up iceman frequency, and on returning you're no longer on the checklist.

Seems like some undateable fixes. Still much better overall however.
Use the filter tool to see all the unread documents. Some extra clicks to remove documents that dont apply but everything new is there.


Also, i dont believe the bookmarks will have you jump around like that, so if you are open on a deice bookmark for example, it will revert back to where the bookmark was flagged from and not the beginning of the topic

Aerodocs has a lot of room for improvement. Which IMO means high potential. Right now it’s made by engineers for engineers. The viewing area is much smaller which requires more scrolling, and additionally is set up for vertical, not the usual landscape format we use in the cockpit.

I don’t utilize bookmarks (I prefer to know where things are and find them quickly), but the search function is excellent.

I've never really understood that critique of unreadable documents.
As an engineer, I appreciate effective form and function. Engineers may fail to appreciate flowery BS, but they generally admire things that work.

I have the same gripes as everyone else about Aerodocs thus far. Think it's better than Content Locker, but plenty of room for improvement.

The app should not have been released for prime time functioning like this, unbelievable this wasn’t caught and fixed. They should extend the use of Content Locker until this issue is fixed.

Mine is how one “page,” top to bottom, can be the equivalent of about 20 pages. Multiple bookmarks on that one page all bring to to the top of the scroll-page.

One document, when you swap back like you mention, takes you to the cover page, or is that what your saying?
