Reminder to all beta testers:
By being part of the Open Beta program, you are helping test new features of Infinite Flight. As a result, there’s a very good chance some things may be broken.
New Features
[Preview] Added Auto Exit to Autopilot+ to the Autopilot+ popup in the pause menu to auto exit the flight to Autopilot+ when reaching 30mn ETE to prevent destination overshoot when away from the device. (Preview, subject to change, don’t be mad it we end up removing it)
Improvements
Re-added pinch-to-zoom support for the free camera, including on-screen controls and controller input.
Added camera boost zones for faster free camera movement and rotation, with haptic feedback.
Drone camera is back in Live Replay and ATC
Restored the OFF camera option in ATC.
Improved free/drone camera rotation control, including better rotation sensitivity for tower/ATC cameras.
Updated the on-screen hint for toggling controls on/off to specify a long press in the center of the screen only
Adjusted on-screen joystick touch zones to reduce accidental activation and avoid overlapping the HUD bottom bar.
Bug Fixes
Disabled roll and pitch controls when using the flying camera in replay and ATC mode
Resending previous build due to Android deployment issues.
Happy Sunday!

Bug Fixes
Disabled roll and pitch controls when using the flying camera in replay and ATC mode
Fixed an issue with flaps sounds never stopping when bound to an axis
Added a one-time control selection screen before the first flight to choose between tilt (motion) controls and on-screen joystick controls.
Added “NEW” badges in the settings/property list to highlight newly added options (including the flight control input setting).
Added an on-screen hint that shows where to touch the joystick when using touch controls, including an animated prompt if the joystick hasn’t been used yet.
Improvements
Improved tilt control calibration and smoothing for more stable pitch/roll response.
Updated the control selection screen layout and sizing for clearer presentation and more consistent text scaling.
Improved joystick handling so the stick position no longer snaps back to center when released; the last position is retained until the next input.
Bug Fixes
Hid on-screen control sticks on the replay screen.
Fixed the elevator (pitch) range on the on-screen thumb sticks.
Fixed unwanted pitch changes that could occur when re-grabbing the joystick on aircraft that are not trimmed.
Fixed aircraft lights not rendering correctly through propellers.
Fixed rendering artifacts with some transparent/alpha-blended materials against the atmosphere (for example, propeller-related artifacts).
Improved Center frequency tuning - it can now always be tuned inside an FIR boundary, including an “Outside of FIR” indicator when applicable. Fixes pilots being unable to tune to center in the ATC menu.
Improved control responsiveness when frame rate is low.
Fixed the iOS frame not filling the entire screen.
Improved stability when loading aircraft models
Fixed long aircraft names being truncated incorrectly in the aircraft info screen.
Fixed drag-and-drop issues on long flight plan legs.
Fixed “Add to Flight Plan” showing incorrectly, and fixed missing waypoint names after drag-and-drop.
Fixed flight plan handling at the end of a route.
Fixed LNAV turn handling on short legs and improved turn tracking smoothness at lower speeds.
Fixed the first pilot message sometimes missing from the ATC message log.
Fixed unknown aircraft not appearing on the ATC map.
Fixed ATC aircraft details (callsign/username/grade) not showing when an aircraft type is unknown.
Fixed the transmission indicator (amber flash) not showing correctly on the map/scope.
Fixed misc other radar frequency tuning issues.
Fixed replay loading crashes.
Fixed landing gear and other animations not reaching the final position always.
Fixed a crash in flight director behavior.
Fixed a crash in A320 map rendering.
Fixed issues with AP+ flight time tracking and landing count.
Added an expandable quick-tune menu when selecting a VOR/NDB, with actions including Add to Flight Plan, Direct To, NAV 1/2 (or ADF 1) tuning, and Information
Developer note: If you’re experiencing crashes around busy airports, limiting your multiplayer visible airplane count should improve thing while we work on optimizing this.
Improvements
Fixed AP+ resume location on some flight plans
Improved autopilot/AP+ resume behavior to continue on the correct flight plan leg
Android: Improved search box behavior
Bug Fixes
Fixed a crash during replay loading.
Fixed radio click volume issues.
Fixed orange blinking highlight on the map for aircraft currently transmitting via ATC speech.
Fixed Oceanic Tracks add to flight plan behavior
Android: Fixed login crash
Fixed a crash in the ATC map when clicking a navaid
