Terrain coloring

I flew in the Alps yesterday. Despite having the terrain coloring button activated, the terrain wasn’t colored even though I flew between the mountains. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Hello Alois,

will you tell us what kind of device? …tablet, phone, with internal GPS or external?

Android or Apple? Have you set Altitude to baro or GPS altitude?

→ a few details make a diagnosis easier. :+1:

Aviator greetings,

Hello Karsten

My phone is a HUAWEI Android with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB of storage. Altitude is set to GPS altitude (internal GPS). Everything else works perfectly, including the traffic warning.

Best regards, ALOIS

Hello Alois,

Did you update the maps before the flight? I experienced a similar issue and had already contacted support about it. If the maps are updated, it may be that the terrain coloring doesn’t work. If that’s the case, exit VFRnav and restart it.
