Discontinuing Avare

[Apps4av Support]

Hi Avare Users

As AvareX overtakes Avare in features, there is little need to keep Avare on Play Store.

Avare will be replaced by AvareX on Play store this year. 

If there is an Avare feature missing in AvareX please indicate. 

There will be a learning curve since apps are different. You should start using AvareX now for a smooth transition.

Truly disappointed to hear that!!! I have been using Avare for years and have no need to change... It has been working fine for me... I didn't need any new features and was totally satisfied where it was at!!! What a disappointment:(

I too have used Avare for years and have moved on.  It has only had a couple upgrades since AvareX came out.  Why don't you download a copy of Avare, store it somewhere, and "side load" it when you need it?  Someone else will have to explain in detail how to do that.

[Apps4av Support]

Avare will be maintained on GitHub. The binary will be released for side load there. People who can build code can also do that themselves.

I found the plan screen on Avare much more intuitive and user-friendly compared to AvareX. Being able to add waypoints one-by-one allowed for greater flexibility instead of building the entire plan all at once and then having to add additional waypoints from the map or starting all over entirely. Being able to push an approach procedure to the end of the plan is a feature that is sorely missed as well.

I find the Avare screen more responsive than AvareX. I keep getting these grey checkerboards on the screen on AvareX (see image).  

The GPS update rate also seems slower on AvareX as compared to Avare. I've had situations where my position had not updated for 15 or more seconds. When flying very close to airspace boundaries, this becomes an important issue. I have not done a side-by-side comparison, but I suspect this is coming from my phone not having enough computing power for AvareX.

Andrew, I believe those grey checkers are cloud ceilings. Check the layers tab and move the "Ceiling" slider to change its opacity.

[Apps4av Support]

Avare is much faster for it gives away looks for speed. 

You need to turn off layers you don't need. Black boxes are ceiling layer. Turn it off and other unneeded layers for speed.

Wow, thank you! This has been bugging me for a while. Now it makes sense!

I am also disappointed that Avare will not be continued on PlayStore.  Avare X has been disappointing, despite some very nice new features.

Hi Chuck

What's disappointing.? Without much information I see it as lack of effort on users part to learn the new interface.
