For those of us that mostly use the dark theme, the hot pink a/c are REALLY bright. Maybe we could get a softer shade that would only highlight any aircraft we selected? Just a thought. Thanks SO much for including this.

I’ll add that the white outline in dark mode is particularly ugly on the pink icon.

I support this feature request as well, the ability to change the aircraft icon colors would be great!

I agree as well. It seems like there needs to be a way to change the color of the aircraft depending on what map you are using. I find it very difficult to see the aircraft with its current color when zooming in on the maps.

We are planning to add custom icons for various aircraft types, and will consider other color options too.

Kind regards,

I agree as well- In a dense area its hard to distinguish your aircraft from the traffic sometimes…

It could be interesting to have the option to add friends, similar to Webeye. This would allow us to view our friends in a different color.
