Ratings and reviews

App works well with my RTL-SDR V3. Very good reception. Map is nice except I don't like when you touch an aircraft, the first thing you see is a photo. To see the A/C data you have to scroll down, and then half the map is covered up. Realize this is how ADSBX does it, but that format is more applicable to a full-size computer monitor. Would rather see aircraft data first, and photo at the bottom.

Works very well. I do kind of wish it would show more technical information from the map view when you select a plane, as just loading a picture of it really doesn't tell me anything and you have to scroll down to get the technical info.

dump1090 is a top-notch app for monitoring air traffic with a simple yet intuitive user interface. Its efficiency, customization options, and accurate tracking make it a must-have tool for aviation enthusiasts, plane spotters, or anyone interested in real-time flight tracking. Highly recommended!
