Give it time. Those big blocks have lots of wasted space that will be filled with useful info in the future. Mission+ is highly customizable and tons of updates coming.

I can send myself the HTML flight plan on MiCrew, but then it takes about 10 minutes for that flight plan to show up in Flight Manager.

My experience is the opposite. I’ve not had to put in the flight number. About an hour out I go into flight manager and it’s there.

Maybe. I have no faith.

Same here. I've never had to manually load it

This. Literally never. And it's always there at some point before I open the app after I set up my side to get the plane ready

You say that like we're lying. It hasn't happened to at least 3 out of 15,000. To me, that's easy to believe.

I'm saying people are over exaggerating. You don't need to. There are legitimate issues with the app. Not showing up at 1:05 is not an issue (domestic).

No, no it doesn’t…the delay between the two is maddening. WTF is the html available when the mission + takes at least 5 minutes longer. Delta IT fail. Another time waste, just like opening 5 different apps during our “preflight flow”.

There are two things here. One is that M+ is consistently late by 5-10 minutes. (Since you don't open it until after you make your nest, it doesn't affect you).

The second is that you need to go search in the dark. There is no notification on your iPad that the flight plan is ready.

I disagree that it's an exaggeration to say both of those things are negative and need to be fixed.

After messing around with M+ for about 6-9 flights, I gotta admit I can't believe this is what they sent out to the entire pilot group as their first "product"...It shouldn't take 15,000 pilots to let the IT group know how **** poor this is compared to what we have been using (HTML). That being said I hope many of the items in the FCR's are addressed and the updates go a lot faster than what was remotely promised even with MiCrew. While there are many aspects of M+ that look promising, it is embarrassing in 2023, this is what we are dealing with.
