Ratings and reviews

The very best of the free flight trackers. The flight search is intuitive and useful. You don't have to know arcane airline codes or airport codes. You can just use the airline name and flight number, and it prompts you with a list to pick from. You can mark multiple flights as favorites so you can track them all from one page. I've tried a couple of other flight trackers with better ratings or more downloads. This one is better.

Good app! Always room for improvement. Very easy to use. Would like to be able to connect device to monitor or TV to see flight tracking info. Currently only see startup script. Would also like feature that allows you to hear flight chatter. (I currently use a separate radio for that). Lastly, would like a feature that allows a camera installation to capture pics of flights as they pass overhead. I live very near an active runway and military base.

Works for the most part but the user interface could use a lot of work. Won't let me remove an item from "My Aircraft," a flight I'm tracking won't refresh, and just a clunky user experience overall. 2024/01/24 Updating to 4 stars. My review is probably a bit harsh. I guess I've become used to the interface and have come to rely on this app whenever we travel.
