Help and Support Plane Finder is regularly updated with innovative new features. Please email support@planefinder.net with any questions or queries, we are happy to help. How does Plane Finder work? Plane Finder receives real time ADS-B and MLAT signals sent by aircraft to transmit their positional data to land based receivers. This technology is faster than traditional radar and is used for air traffic control and navigation.

Plane Finder alerts would be much better if multi-selection of aircraft variants were possible, at least within an aircraft 'family'. Alternatively how about supporting a wildcard of '*' within an ICAO code eg 'B78*'. That seems like a neat solution, but it doesn't work. It is quite disappointing that the publisher thought this alerts feature was ready at this functionality level. Very limited.

I downloaded and paid for the original app years ago and have used it ever since. I log on today and was told to download the new app as this one was no longer supported. This app was free unlike the previous version (I purchased it from the play store). Catch is you now want me to pay for a Monthly/Annual subscription to see everything i already could see on the old app (Which I've already paid for!) Talk about cutting off your loyal customers that purchased your app before you got greedy!

Same as everyone else - I paid for the premium version of the app already, then they come out with an 'updated' version which they expect all of us who've already paid to pay again! Complete scam! And NO I do NOT "want to take advantage of the extended 3 month free trial" and "new technologies as the old app was developed 13 years ago" blah blah blah. I've looked at the new version, I'm unimpressed (it looks dark, clunky, and not as visually pleasing as the old one), and £19.99 per year is a LOT
