Control Data Sort in Logbook Pro Mobile

Logbook Pro Mobile allows you a lot of control over your logbook yet keeps it as simple as can be for fast flight logging and more time for golf or your favorite non flying activities. One item we get asked about from time to time is how to make the newest flight show at the top or bottom. This is controlled in Settings > Data Sort. A quick toggle and the data sort is reversed. Check out this topic and other topics in our great online documentation so you can learn how to get the most out of Logbook Pro.
