readability. Such documents are printed as full-page documents when this switch is on. Emailed airport diagrams and procedures are always emailed at their original size regardless of this setting.

Auto display airport diagrams on landing

FlyQ EFB normally shows a geo-referenced airport diagram when it believes you’ve just landed at an airport. For this to happen, your ground speed must drop below 50 Kts for several seconds and the airport must have an FAA-provided airport diagram. The FAA provides diagrams for the 700 or so largest airports in the US (all class B, C, and D airports). Turn this switch off to disable the feature.

Disable FlyQ’s use of the Internet while moving

FlyQ EFB behaves differently when it thinks it’s connected to the Internet versus offline. This can cause problems if you have a very weak Internet connection such as when flying low with a cellular-enabled iPad or an iPhone. In those cases, FlyQ EFB could be tricked into thinking it can use an Internet connection but the weak signal causes very long delays or connection problems. When this switch is on (which is the default), FlyQ EFB will not attempt to use the Internet when you’re moving even if the iPad or iPhone thinks it has an Internet connection. The iPad/iPhone’s connection to the Internet is not affected in any way by this switch, just FlyQ’s use of it.

Preferred fuel type

Several places in FlyQ display fuel prices. To increase readability, the app generally shows just the prices associated with one type of fuel.
