Air Traffic - flight tracker
September 15, 2024
More About Air Traffic - flight tracker
- airline and flight number,
- flight origin and destination airports,
- departure and arrival time,
- aircraft type, including photos,
- altitude, speed and heading,
- 3D pilot view animation
The planes are displayed on the map with about ten different icons depending on the type of aircraft. Also including helicopters.
You can find plane for a given flight or with a given registration, using the very responsive search engine. Once selected you may add the flight to the list of favorites. This will enable you later to retrieve and swap from flight to flight in a very efficient way.
When opening settings, you can choose type of maps and units.
One of the feature we are the most proud of is the real-time 3D view of the ground. A bird-eye view as if you were in the plane : enjoy the landing!
You will appreciate the very responsiveness of this flight tracker app when panning and zooming around.
Permissions : we are concerned by your privacy. You will only be requested to grant location permission if you want to use the 'around me' feature. You may deny. Clean app, no other tricky permission out there.

Seem to be some delays between planes flying overhead and their appearance on the map. Sometimes takes 2-3 minutes for the plane that has already flow overhead to appear on the map.

a.) flight numbers in display are different from real flight numbers b.) it is barely believable that a plane in motion can get off radar, in this app it's more than half time of a trip not traceable it may be possible that this happens in areas with almost no population, but in areas of big cities and rural areas with dense population it is not understandable that a plane cannot be tracked.

MEH... Doesn't give altitude. All planes are the same size, and if you zoom down very close to them at all, they jump from place to place instead of moving nice and smoothly. - Obviously a thrown together app that the devs didn't spend much thought to or time with. - - Ads are annoying as well.

Only useful if you want to know what flights are in the sky above you. if you're trying to track a specific flight, departure and destination, arrival times, etc., this is NOT the app for you. I gave it 2 Stars as it is more for entertainment purposes and it does track flights. just don't depend on this app to tell you when your kid arrives home from college.

One of the best live interactive air maps I have ever used! 3D version follows the terrain as they fly over it! Favorites, and track your own flight! Also (and this is my favorite part), you can click on a plane on the map, and it shows you a picture of that type of plane, with stats like speed, angle, and distance high! GREAT APP! ☮️💟☯️ Would you be able to make a Drone ID flight tracker? (I just read full description and realize helicopters and published military are included! Woot woot!)

I liked the app. But, The app. lasted about 12 minutes total time with viewing planes over my house, now it goes off as soon as you touch the plane for the info of the plane. No use if it is a bad designed app. that cuts off all by its self, deleting app to see if it is self correcting when re installing app on my wi fi.

verry usefully app I love it but I would give the extra money for a really good one, other wise I thought it was a really good app because you can track a flight of a friend or of a random flight. I thought it was cool that you could see where your flight was coming from and what time it took off and when it will arrive. I think it would be cool if you could track military planes but that will happen when pigs fly! again five stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

The two starts is for the detail of the flights. However, it's not accurate because I live near our airport and granted it's not a major one. Each time a plane takes off from here LRD, no plane shows up, we got all types. Even after about 10 minutes to give the app to refresh, nothing so I wonder if the app can really update thousands of planes. I followed one, a FedEx plane, the app shows it was landing and no plane above me and they fly low in my area.

It's not one of the best, it is the best... It's easy to get the flight you are looking for, just by touching on any flight that is in the air, in live time. Along with the airline carrier and flight number. You might want to consider getting this app, specially, if you are a cab or a private sector taxi service. It'll be so much better than the flight boards or a phone call.

I love the app. I haven't ever had any issues. Just about 15 minutes ago I was laying in bed playing a game, winding down from the day. At first I thought thunder was rolling in, but it got louder. I thought wow, that's a loud one. I looked on this app to see what type of plane it was. It is always cool to see what is flying over head..tonight its just a HUGE fed ex plane, but sometimes its a passenger plane going somewhere warm away from the cold weather. I am in 'awe of the number of planes.

ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!!!!! A basic premise that many flight tracker apps operate on is to actually show the airplane you want to track. I have tried this app on multiple phones and it DOES NOT WORK ON ANY OF THEM!!!!Don't waste your time. There are a lot of mediocre flight tracking apps-+- NONE of them are great-- BUT THIS IS THE WORST OF ALL OF THEM. Google should pull this app. The quality is TERRIBLE!!!

This is a great app. does just what it describes. I've spent alot of time watching planes all around the world. Just tap on any one plane and it shows you where it came from and where it's going, it's speed in MPH, altitude, type of plane with pictures of it, and best of all it shows you the ground as if you were actually in it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this app. MANY THANKS to the creator of this app.

For the most part, this app doesn't work, rendering it virtually useless. Screen freezes every time I click on a plane, and then app won't resume. Full-page ads pop up frequently and work perfectly, though, obliterating the actual content for which people download this app. Goes to show where the developers' priority is. Hint: It's not users. Installed tonight and promptly uninstalled 15 minutes later. Typical garbage app offered at the Google Play Store.

This app is still surprising me. My Wi-Fi phone that I installed app on was misplaced and battery dead for a few weeks, but even needing an update, this app retained the settings it was left on and still held the last flight patterns . Informative, functional, and fun- the free version, worked like it said it would and more. I highly recommend.

Excellent App, no need for purchases to see the exact location of the Aircraft that's flying. Anything from 1,000 to 30,000 + ft in the air. It refresh every few times per minute I believe due to the volume of Aircrafts that's Landing, Taxiing, even Taking Off, and In Flight. Great, great App. I wish I was able to listen to Tower and Pilots communicating with each other while Taking Off/Landing

It's a really cool app to watch planes fly over and look over the horizon at night and see their farthest way point and see they are very far away when you can see them in the sky and on the phone. But I've decided to take the app off my phone because it's really annoying having it tell me in the screen to constantly to zoom in to see more planes. I don't need reminded over and over with the annoying thing going across my phone.

I love the Air Traffic application and I can actually see a picture of the airplane types when you select the airplane icon on the radar map! The app indicates the speed, direction, flight number, destination (from and to) too. So, as an example: when an airline explains your pilots just took off from a flight in X city landing at your airport to operate the aircraft you booked, you can verify if it true by Air Traffic and know when they are going to be at your airport. Keep up the great work!

It is a cool app with great features, but more than half the planes do not show up. I will have 3 or 4 planes in the area and there will be nothing on the map. Even would check to see if there was a time delay but still nothing. Tonight alone I saw 5 planes pass ahead. Nothing shows up on the app and the closest plane on the app is a couple hundred miles away going a different heading

Very nice, works great on Samsung note 9. I didn't know all this informarion was public. Room for improvement is the 3D option. It gives map view from perspective of plane (which is very cool) but it only looks like 2D. I would think 3D should allow change in angle and rotation, so I don't understand the definition of 3D vs 2D here (could just be my misunderstanding). Amazing app!

Generally an ok app. But, it doesn't pick up all flights over the area. It picks up more flights in & out of LAX. It doesn't track flights for BUR but once in a while & I know there is much more traffic than what this is picking up. This is because we are in its glidepath. It's ok to track the flights for the big airports like LAX. But, I'd like the see the traffic for the local, regional airport that affects my airspace .
