Recent airports list only show 5 last airports

Hello all.
I really enjoy the chart app and all the new features that are being implemented!
Lately I have noticed that my “Recent airport” list is only showing the 5 last airports, if I search for another airport the one at the bottom disappears from the list. This is both on Charts Desktop and Charts iOS.
Is this something I can change in the settings somewhere? I would really like to have the list growing as I search for new airports :slight_smile:
I tried searching in here but didn’t find anything related. I apologize if I missed a post covering this topic.

I am on version 8.30.0 and build 6336412403.

Cheers,
Orjan.

Hi! Welcome to the forum!

The limit to 5 recent items was introduced in 8.29.0 to make space for the list of airport favorites. We thought that 5 recent items would be a reasonable amount, but it sounds like you disagree!

What is your motivation for having access to more than 5 recent items? What does your workflow look like in order to benefit from this?

Kind Regards,
Malte

Hi Malte, thanks.

I see, it’s a limit that is “hardcoded” in the app. Then it’s not a setting, no problem. That’s all I was wondering about.

Disagree? Not that dramatic, more like I just got used to having the list expand everytime I searched, hence my question. That is also why I never used the “favorites” function. But I can use the “favorites” for that, no problem for me.

Motivation? Workflow?
None of the above… Again, it’s just been like that for a long time and I got used to the way it worked. So when it changed I just wanted to ask if it was a setting or not, that’s all.

Cheers,
Orjan.

Alright, no worries. I was just curious if there was anything we could improve!

5 seems a little low indeed - we have added a note about this and will take a look at a different solution when time permits!

Thank you for the feedback!

Kind Regards,
Malte
