First off, use whatever works for you.
Now to my rant. I have never understood people’s need to highlight. It is such a crutch. Even in school all people ever highlighted was the first sentence. If that’s the case just read the first sentence. I know it forces your eyes but rote usage does that too. And it can also force your eyes away from important stuff.
I also know most on here on great aviators so I am seriously not picking on anybody. I just need to use my soapbox for a bit.

I don't think so. But Flight Family does, in the bar on the upper left side of the screen. I also find that somewhat useful for the % of customers scanned and bags loaded for general SA.

That's a good one. Also, when people talk about setting up all their apps, what other apps are they struggling with? Aside from going through micrew to send myself the weather, I set up FDPro through M+. I genuinely don't understand this argument and I'm trying to see if there's something guys are doing that I'm just not.

John Bell has published 3 iOS 'shortcuts' on his website johnfbell.com, in addition to being on Skyhub. I use the one by Justin Van Demark, and it is out-effing-standing. I believe the other two incorporate the HTML flight plan, which I have forced myself to no longer use, as they are going away anyway.
Twoooooop! Those links are a solid addition. JB has been instrumental in alleviating the pain with M+-/ so far… it’s as if we have a team willing to help who knows wtf they’re doing, if only the company would utilize their knowledge and experience in this adventure.
