Flyover Country

Turn flight into geography lessons! Awesome! The only drawback is that GPS reception is weak in the window seats of many planes - too much metal screening.

Grat fun when traveling

iPhone 14 location services on - doesn’t find GPS whether you’re online, on cell, or in airplane mode. IF it worked, a failing is that it doesn’t identify rivers. Too bad. Would be great it if worked.

I love the interactive tour…. Best from a window seat. Why does the data take so long to download?

I fly between the coasts a few times a year. I got the app to work for a short time my first flight about two years ago but it’s never worked since. I can never find gps even if inflight wifi is available.

GPS very spotty and 90% of time does not work even on my new iphone. Window seat held up to window … all of the stuff they suggest does not make difference. Love the idea but very frustrating to download route and not be able to use them . Deleting app.

I love the concept of this app but have been sorely disappointed trying to use it. It’s always “searching for gps signal”. The strange thing is other apps seem to see the gps. If I open Google maps, I can’t see the map but I can see that my position is moving on the grid. Same with Apple Maps. There’s some technical glitch here.

Most recent update seems to have removed them. That really damages the usefulness of the app. Globe Observer offers very little other content at the moment.

I used the app for one trip and really enjoyed it, but, sadly, haven’t been able to save a path since. The download gets to about 95 % (according the indicator anyway) and hangs after that, every time.

Portrait orientation only, worthless.
