I routinely fly with two iFly devices, one on each yoke. I have gotten spoiled by the flight plan sharing function--I have the illusion that the two devices are in complete sync.

Or at least I do until the illusion is broken when an alert pops up on the screen(s). Then, I have to acknowledge the alert separately on each device. Often, alerts come in multiples, so I find myself going "click-click-click-click" on one device, then "click-click-click-click" on the second.

I would like to see a setting to share alert acknowledgments across devices, just like flight plans, so that if I click "Acknowledge" or "Ignore" on one device, the other devices on the network respond as if I'd clicked that button on them, too.

Spending twice as much time head's-down clicking acknowledgement buttons is not making me a safer pilot.

And here's my YES vote. We just started using two iFly's in the cockpit and glad that you let us know about this.

Brilliant! For some reason, that never occurred to me, even as I'm constantly Acknowledging alerts on two tablets. (I had set one tablet up for Strict and the other for Moderate, to compare the two. So I was still thinking disjointedly.)

I can rarely get the flight plan sharing to work, even when at home connected to my router and using two Apple devices.
