Would a feature like this be available for CTAF? It'd be quite useful.

Hello Elevatex Team! Could you guys add the inHg to the airport info as well? maybe add it next to the already existing hPa. See photo attached.

How about a Spotify Wrapped-style recap each December? It could show total flights, hours and distance, top airports, favourite aircraft, longest flight, fuel and CO2, and a map of every route flown. Shareable cards for Instagram, X and Discord would give ELEVATEX free promotion, and most of the data is already tracked. A printable route-map poster could be a nice premium extra. Would love to see this for 2026!

Allow ELEVATEX to scan the scenery library on first load up of the program without having to go to the settings and do it manually. More of a QOL request :)

Hello ELEVATEX team! I’d love to volunteer as a beta tester when the macOS version becomes available. I’m currently running X-Plane 12 on an Apple Silicon M4 Mac and would be happy to help test compatibility, performance, and functionality. I’m also a software developer working on the Flight Simulator Ecosystem Index (FSEI), so I understand the effort that goes into developing and maintaining an application like this. I really like what you’re building with ELEVATEX and look forward to supporting your work, including through Premium once the Mac version is available. Keep up the great work! FLT-SIM WORLD / FSEI

Hello, Could you guys make it so we can sort the airlines alphabetically and leave it like that? Instead of having to sort them every time we go into the aircraft page? See photo below for reference.

Have the ability to filter out the ELEVATEX traffic to be able to choose friends only, and then maybe when VAs get released add the option to display only VA flights. Potential three options: All Flights Friends VA Flights

It would be cool to have the actual ATC sector name as well as the identifer. Currently the app only gives us the identifier. Ex KZME is showing up as MEM_22_CTR. Outsiders or un-cultered users would never know that its memphis center using the app.

It would be nice to be able to group aircraft. Volanta has this feature. For example, if I have 20 different A320s, I might create 3 groups such as Fenix MSFS 2024, ToLiss XP12, and FSLabs MSFS 2024. Or I could just make an A320 group. This is useful so that you don't just have a huge list of aircraft and its easier to look at and decide which simulator/developer's aircraft to fly.

If possible, users can draw on the map, especially on the ground at the airport to map out taxiing route. It'd be extremely helpful for folks who do not have navigraph subscriptions, which tracks their users in real time their movement on the ground. Since I fly on VATSIM, I normally write down my taxiing instructions and manually reference the charts, which would be a lot of back and forth at busy airports. Having the ability to draw, highlight, or scribble directly onto the map would be a huge help so users can reference the taxiing route right then and there.

It would be great to have the ability to create Groups in Elevatex, allowing friends or communities to fly together and compete. Suggested featuresCreate public or private groups. Invite friends via username or invite link. Group owner/admin permissions. Group LeaderboardsEach group could have multiple leaderboard categories: ✈️ Flight Hours 🛫 Total Flights 🌍 Flight Distance (NM) 🛬 Average Landing Rate ⛽ Fuel Burned (optional)

I’ve had an idea and I don’t know if it’s possible to implement but I’ll say it anyway - Electronic nav log! Just like we have irl, the off blocks/on blocks and takeoff/landing times could be pulled from the sim. This could then populate the ETA at a waypoint, and then you fill in your actual time of arrival and fuels, forming an electronic nav log Don’t think anyone is offering this feature at the moment And if it’s too difficult to get travel time between waypoints, you could always do it manually like we used to do on paper flight plans. This is what we use IRL - it's called Mission+

For example: You forget to start tracking, however you connected to VATSIM. Allow it so you can almost paste the part of your flight that wasn't recorded into your flight track, if you are still in the air. Thanks!

A small one, but I'd really like the ability to add notes to a specific aircraft (in the same way as we already can to flights).

Hi! I recently completed a flight where I had to divert to another airport. However, I forgot to register the diversion in ElevateX while the flight was still active. Currently, as far as I understand, you can register a diversion while the flight is active, but once the flight has ended, there is no way to add or correct the diversion afterwards. It would be great if there was an option to add a diversion after the flight has already been completed, for situations where the user forgot to register it during the flight. For example, an option on the completed flight page such as “Add/Edit Diversion”, where you could select the airport you actually diverted to. This wo…

Hi Elevatex team, I want to suggest a feature that would improve flight data integrity during connectivity or app authorization drops. The Issue: Recently, I experienced a brief period where the Elevatex application lost authorization mid-flight. Because the app couldn't send position reports during that time, my flight map showed a straight line between the disconnection point and the reconnection point, rather than the actual flight path. The Suggestion: It would be great if Elevatex could implement a "fallback" logic for these gaps. If the application detects that it is failing to send position reports, it should automatically cross-reference the active flight plan …

Hello, I've really been enjoying using Elevatex and have been exploring all of the statistics it provides after each flight. I had a question about the Environmental Impact section. On my flights, the fuel saved and CO2 consumption values always remain at 0, even though other flight statistics are being recorded correctly I was wondering if these metrics are still under development. Are there any future plans to calculate and display Fuel Saved and CO2 consumption Reduction based on the flights actual fuel burn or flight profile? I think these would be great additions for users who enjoy tracking aircraft efficiency and comparing flights over time. Thanks in advance …

This will be mostly subjective, so don't take this post as "This must be changed to work this way", this is just my personal opinion about some UI and interactions of things I personally would like to see changed, none of these is a deal breaker, and I can totally see different people having different preferences, so take this simply for what it is. I have no training or formal knowledge about UI and design, so if I can be totally wrong on some things. Although I've already have a play and customized some options, it's 100% possible I missed something that would have "fixed" something that I'm complaining about, so if that's the case please let me know. So, first I…

I submitted a feature request before that ended up with a better compatibility of replay phase. But it seems to be way direct, it just ended flight. I would recommend a mild approach that pauses the flight. This feature can be combined with auto flight completion that has a 15-sec countdown to the end of flight. If replay detected, auto completion pauses, and the countdown comes alive after the replay mode exits.

I think we should be able to split lets say our flights to multiple groups, to be better organised. For instance, i would really like to be able to put on one group my career flights, on another group my freeflight flights, and on another group, my goofy flights, which arent really fligts. Same goes with aircraft. Maybe we could put on one group career aircraft, on another group, addon aircraft, and on another group the rest, or like propeller aircraft on one group, and jet aircraft on another. It could work the same way we organise games on steam, and we can put them in different categories and stuff. Anyways you get my idea, point is organization.

So i got this idea, that goes mainly for vfr flying and smaller planes, not commercial passenger jets, but is applicable everywhere. So, lets say that i want to take my small vfr plane and make a trip in the sim across Europe, which said trip would have many stops across the continent in multiple airports and airfields for refuelling, sightseing and iidk what else. It would be nice if we could create in elevatex a big trip that contains multiple planned legs, and then the app following us through that trip from airport to airport. Basically many flights, but in one big trip. And we could see in the end how much we followed that planned trip, which airports from the planne…

With the upcoming update that will show us the diversion after our flights end, i though it would be a good idea to add an optional field where we can say the reason we diverted. For instance, one diversion i made was due to medical emergency in career, and a different one was because of a mechanical problem. It would be nice to be able to file our reason for diverting.

Hi, I am a new Elevatex user. I take screenshots via Xbox Gamebar with Win+Alt+PrntScrn. This takes two screenshots at once, one HDR and one normal non-HDR screenshot. Elevatex (same as Volanta) can only upload the non-HDR screenshot. However, the HDR screenshot also appears in the upload list, but is shown like it is corrupted. Maybe it could adjusted in such a way that only the non-HDR screenshots appear in the upload section? Volanta also discards the HDR screenshots and does not offer them for upload. Thanks 🙂

So basically, in the fleet and flights pages, when you set a filter, or change the row with the arrow button, next to the filter button, and you click something, lets say an aircraft, and then go back, the filters automaticly reset and get removed, every single time. Its not something that big of a deal at first glance, but it can get really annoying. So, state saving of certain menus would be quite nice. Thanks elevatex-beta 2026-05-15 21-22-54.mp4

Currently, when I upload a screenshot, the screenshot appears on the map at the point my plane was at when I uploaded the screenshot. It would be nice if the app checked the file for the "last modified" or creation dates and used that to place the screenshot at the appropriate position along the flight path instead of where the plane was at time of upload. Or, alternatively, an approach similar to what LRM / FSHub offers, whereby the app can "watch" a screenshot folder and automatically "geotag" the screenshots as they appear. If it did that, then it could parse out the geotag when uploading instead of needing to interpolate the date along the path.
