Release notes

Check the recent flight paths of nearby aircraft to boost your situational awareness and see which runways or procedures are in use.
Traffic Breadcrumbs are supported while receiving traffic information from an ADS-B or FLARM receiver. The Internet Traffic layer does not support Traffic Breadcrumbs.
Tap any airborne or grounded traffic target to display its breadcrumb trail in green along with information about the target, and tap elsewhere on the map to hide it.
Your own breadcrumb trail, if enabled, will turn gray while viewing other aircrafts’ breadcrumbs to avoid confusion.
A target’s breadcrumb starts at the first point at which the target appeared in ForeFlight, up to 30 minutes ago, and will disappear if the target disappears from ForeFlight. However, if the same target reappears within two minutes then it will retain its previous breadcrumb trail; more than two minutes and the trail will restart from scratch.
Traffic Breadcrumbs are enabled by default, but you can disable them using the Traffic Breadcrumbs setting in Map Settings > Map Overlays while connected to an inflight traffic source.
Available with Essential subscription plans and above.
