Your Logbook
The Logbook tab is the heart of Wader. It shows every flight and simulator session you have logged as a list of cards, grouped by month. Upcoming flights sit above a NOW line, and the flights you have flown sit below it, most recent first. The list opens centred on the NOW line.

What is on a Flight Card
Section titled “What is on a Flight Card”Each card gives you a summary of the flight at a glance:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Flight number | The flight number for that leg |
| Tail number and type | The aircraft registration and type (for example A320 or B738) |
| Route and times | Departure and arrival airports with their block times |
| Block time | The total block to block time |
| Progress track | Three steps, Init, Dep and Arr, filled as each part of the flight is complete |
| Status tag | TODAY, TOMORROW, SCHEDULED or IN PROGRESS for flights not yet flown, or MISSING for an incomplete flight |
| Cloud icon | Whether the flight is saved to the cloud |
A signed flight also shows a verified mark and a lock.
Tap a card to open the flight. Slide it right to delete it, or left to start a duplicate, next or return flight from it. See Swipe Actions.
Flight Status Colours
Section titled “Flight Status Colours”The coloured edge on the left of each card tells you whether the flight is complete and counting towards your totals.
| Colour | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Teal (flight) or purple (simulator) | The log is complete. It counts in your totals and is included in exports |
| Amber | The log is incomplete: one or more required fields are missing. It does not count in your totals and is not included in exports |
Scheduled flights show a faded edge, and a flight in progress pulses.
To see which fields a flight needs to be complete, see:
Cloud Sync Icon
Section titled “Cloud Sync Icon”Each card shows a small cloud icon:
- Teal cloud: the log is synced to the cloud
- Red cloud: the log is waiting to sync, usually because your device was offline when you saved it
Logs waiting to sync upload automatically as soon as you are back online.
