About this app

SkyBound is the all-in-one platform for hot air balloon pilots and crew. Track flights in realtime with precision GPS, coordinate with your crew, plan flights with integrated weather, and manage your ballooning business — all from one app.

FLIGHT TRACKING
Track every flight with live GPS including altitude, speed, heading, and vertical rate. Your crew sees your position in real time and gets navigation to your landing spot. Background tracking keeps working even when the app is minimized.

CREW COORDINATION
Create teams with your pilots and crew. Everyone sees live positions on a shared map during flights. No more constant calls and texts — your crew knows exactly where you are and where you're headed.

WEATHER INTELLIGENCE
Get flight-specific weather forecasts right at your launch coordinates. View wind speed and direction at multiple altitudes, hourly breakdowns, and sunrise/sunset times.

FLIGHT PLANNING
Plan routes on an interactive map with zone overlays. Import KML and GPX files for competition targets, restricted areas, and custom boundaries. Set altitude floors and ceilings with color-coded rules.

COMPETITION SUPPORT
Snap a photo of your task sheet and let AI extract targets, coordinates, and scoring rules. See task overlays on your flight map in real time.

FLIGHT LOG
Every flight is automatically logged with full GPS tracks, altitude profiles, duration, and distance. Replay any flight on the map.

FOR COMMERCIAL PILOTS
List your business in our nationwide pilot directory. Manage bookings, track your customer pipeline, send invoices with Stripe payments, and view revenue analytics.

FIND A RIDE
Looking for a balloon ride? Search by location to find verified pilots near you, view their profiles and pricing, and message them directly. No commissions or middlemen.
