Great App

hcgnkhu on

United States

For years, I’ve used different apps to track flights, but I think I’ve finally found the one that’s right for me. Overall, no lag and no issues. The one time pay is great, rather than a subscription. The ability to differentiate military aircraft vs civilian aircraft is great. My only recommendations would be to track full flights, and to have unique aircraft icons (similar to Flightradar24) for added variety purposes.

Great app! No subscriptions. (as long adbsexchange allows it)

A few suggestions: 1. Would be nice to be able to sync the filters (via iCloud). 2. There are only two options All history/Recent. Could not figure out how to just show the last flight, or for example just last 2 hours. If somebody is doing a lot of touch-and-go, practicing landings, will be nice to see the whole flight.

Yea this doesn’t track everything

Just had an a-10 fly by my location by about 2k feet and it didn’t show up on radar. Got it on video, was the coolest 12 seconds of my life

Best $10 bucks ever paid

I hate subscription, this is just what I need. I’d love to see a 3D map version like Google Earth

Worth every penny!

I only care about MIL traffic and this by far is the cleanest app to track those. Prefer being able to track all MIL traffic instead of what FR24 currently does on their app which is only 1 service. As mentioned below, the one thing I’d love is different icons for the different planes. FR24 has that and it’s helpful.

Great app

As a pilot this app is excellent Be nice to have some additional features, like alerts based on N number or hex, and historic lookup, but must have app for pilot

How about some updates?

jlthorpe-C354 on

If someone pays you for an app, it's expected to be updated. It's been over two years and the app only gets stale over time. How about an update for paying customers?

Unmatched data on your phone

Kyles609 on

I’ve been using this for years as a corporate pilot and aviation tracker. I can see everything from military aircraft, Airforce One and random private flights that are blocked. The filters are a huge help because I can filter out a dozen or so flights to see if they’re airborne while I’m flying. Very powerful app with filters.

The 10 dollars is worth it!

Spend the 10 dollars it’s worth it! I mainly use this app to get the registration of private or military aircraft that won’t show up anywhere else and it’s so simple quick and easy to use I love it!

Latest version FREEZES and the only “fix” is to reboot my iPhone. Sometimes my iPhone (13 ProMax running iOS 16.1) is difficult to even turn off when this app LOCKS UP. I’m not having this problem with any other app on my iPhone.
