Description
Approach Control is a highly realistic air traffic control simulation, designed by real world air traffic controllers. It uses authentic pilot voices.
This app is designed to give aviation enthusiasts a taste of the world's greatest job. The radar behavior in this app is identical to that of real-world air traffic control radar screens, utilizing a 3-second sweep that air traffic controllers are accustomed to. Much work has been done to make such a complex job fit inside the palm of your hand.
You are the approach controller whose job is to manage arriving passenger jets at various busy airports. Establish arriving aircraft onto 'final approach' as safely and efficiently as possible. As in the real world of ATC, you must walk a very fine line between being cautious and being expeditious. A top notch air traffic controller knows how to bring planes in 'tight', without breaking the 'three mile rule'.
Keep all aircraft at least THREE MILES apart or at least 1000 FEET VERTICALLY apart. That's your job in a nutshell! Earn extra points by establishing the planes onto final approach without extra wasted space.
Air traffic controlling is achieved by assigning a mixture of three things: HEADING, SPEED, and ALTITUDE. Use these three tools to achieve safety and efficiency.
A successful air traffic controller must remain CALM, COOL and COLLECTED, known as the 'three C's'. Who knows, you may one day use these skills and apply for a real ATC job! Find out why real-world air traffic controllers have nerves of steel.

Approach Control Reviews
Technical and fun!
This game has a simulator feel to it. Great way to pass time.
Great potential, but needs dev
The UI is great…a nice presentation, easy to use and has a realistic feel. Issues that need work as of 1/2023: 1. User needs awareness of why game ended. It seems like if a threshold of errors is reached, the game ends, but why the game ends each time needs to be made apparent to the user. In current state, it feels like the game is crashing. 2. End game screen feels broken: user is presented with coaching/reinforcement, which is fine, but the try again/replay button doesn’t work, so user experience is that the game is frozen. Only way to try again is to close app, and re-launch, which feels like a total loss of previous gameplay. Nevertheless, I keep playing, which says a lot.
Good, but..
Great to pass time, but needs to update based on 7110.65, passing or diverting and merging target procedures. Broke sep on aircraft over 30degrees diverting or paths won’t intercept. But still fun
Good enough but.
If you add 1) real airports such as JFK or KLAX!) 2) make to I would can clear for ILS only in localizer. 3) add some real airlines with their callsign such as Delta (D) or Lufthansa (LH) for example - D137 or LH654 . The game will be so much better!!! And real people in aviation will give you 5 stars . And you will be rich.)))) good luck!!!
Used to be great
Used to be a great game, but now it crashes ALL the time. Anything longer than about 10-15min and it crashes. An update would be nice.... How about some new scenarios too? Gets a little boring playing the same scenarios all the time
Crashes a lot
Great game to play. But crashes a lot and doesn't save the score
Crashes
This game is a lot of fun! But crashes after playing it for 10 mins or longer. Played on my ipad 2 and iPhone 6 and it crashes on both. Doesn't save your game either so you lose all your progress.
Not recommend
The app is in serious need of updates. It's a 4x3 aspect ration in a 16x9 world.
Good but needs updates
Realistic , challenging and fun but crashes regularly after prolonged play.
