More About X-Plane Flight Simulator
▶ Over 1 million downloads! ◀
Come experience why real pilots fly X-Plane.
It starts with the flight model—the same flight model used in our FAA-certified desktop simulator—that’s complete enough to model the flex in your wings & the tilt in your landing gear.
Add to that our desktop-quality aircraft with multiple liveries and interactive 3-D cockpits—so detailed you can do a full startup procedure using the hundreds of buttons, knobs, & switches in the cockpit. With working gauges, flight displays, & more, these cockpits are as realistic as those in our full desktop sim.
But aircraft are no good without a place to fly them. That's why each of our free regions features detailed terrain, lifelike city buildings, & 3-D airports—complete with terminal buildings, jetways, hangars, & more.
Want more? Subscribe to unlock global scenery, and get access to over 37,000 airports, with more than 11,500 airports featuring 3D terminals, hangars, & more.
▶ FEATURES
√ 9 free tutorials, teaching the basics of takeoffs & landings, traffic patterns, helicopters, & more.
√ 2-player internet multiplayer via Game Center (free for everyone)
√ Fully interactive cockpits on many aircraft, wired to real systems models, with working gauges, displays, buttons, & switches

Overall I love this mobile flight sim. It's the best one out there by far however there are issues I've put a lot of effort into getting in front of the developers that they say they're working on but thing is, nothing I've brought up has been fixed in the year and a half since reporting them. Two issues: The camera jumps all over the place, usually 180° from intended direction. (This is a constant battle.) Too many of the planes and especially the King Air have far too low cockpit camera views.

The videos look great. Finished the first tutorial, which also looked really nice. But after that, it won't load. It tries to connect to Google Play, but a symbol just kept spinning and never loaded. It just got stuck at the video trying to sell some kind of subscription to airports. Can't pause or do anything to the video, which just kept replaying. And can't click on the "not now" button to go on. And there wasn't even the button to buy the subscription. So sad.

I used to really like this sim back when it was X-plane 10. Now I have to lower my review because after all these years, there's STILL issues with looking around the cockpit or map where it will all of a sudden throw you to a completely different location or when you try to turn the camera it just snaps to a random direction in the cockpit. On top of that, there is still the issue of switches either not operating in the correct direction, or just not operating at all.

Needs work. The physics are realistic and the graphics are very good. The new aircraft are excellent, but some of the older ones, like the A320 desperately need a rework. The camera and map controls are horrendous. They're fidgety and clunky to control. The cockpit controls are also very difficult to use. More aircraft, reworked aircraft and much more refined controls are much needed. The game would be perfect if you added those. Keep working on it. Good job on it so far :D

Holy beautiful work of art now -- I was hoping for this for over a year and I can't even deal with how amazing it is. Literally can't believe the interface and the nav and everything seems legit. I was using infinite flight for their global maps but yeah this is insane now. Some little quirks I'd say: I have the S10+ you CANNOT access the menu buttons on the right side of the screen with the navigation bar on the phone. So in flight can't use button top right. Not the settings on main screen.

It's the simulator with the best graphics I have ever seen but the controls are too complicated for tablet or smartphone. I wish it had the controls similar to Infinite Flight to be able to enjoy it. I couldn't even find the brakse for taxiing other than the parking brakes. If it wasn't for this I would have continued subscription. If also needs more aircraft options and liveries.

This game is absolutely incredible. I love the selection of aircraft(although having more wouldnt hurt), the graphics are amazing, I love that it's interactive. The reason I removed 1 star is because I would like it to be cross-platform. I have an android phone, and also an iPad, and I'd like to play on both without having to pay twice. Phone for portability and iPad for easier control and overall better performance. If you could add an account thing, thay would make this game a 10/10.

Recently, the game started freezing from even the most simple movement. Sometimes I can take off and fly for a little while but it's a little random when the problem occurs during flight. Today, I couldn't even zoom in on the main panel to turn on the battery while the plane was parked. The game freezes completely and has to be closed. Its unusable at this point. Will gladly raise rating to 5 stars if the problem is resolved. This game was great before the problem began.

Really impressed with this so far. Didn't expect to find as much depth on mobile, but this is pretty realistic and it looks nice. Tutorials are really good for people new to planes too. I'd prefer a one time purchase over the monthly global fee, but you don't need it to play, so that's nice. I did find one bug: The Cirrus jet - The battery 2 switch can be toggled on but not off like all of the other switches. I'm not sure if this is supposed to happen or if I did something wrong.

Update: got the global access and it's really great and very powerful. Thanks for listening to us! I love this app. I'd love to see the ability to purchase more airport locations. This ability would allow me to use this with my flight students instead of Microsoft FSX. I need to also have control sensitivity and null zones settable. When connected to a bluetooth controller it's not easy to control realistically. Almost perfect guys, keep up the great work!

Decent sim. Would love to have an option to disable the autoplay video on the main screen. That can eat up high-speed data for someone with a limited amount/data cap. Edit: left 1 star off because performance is choppy, but that is most likely due to playing on a budget phone. Would like to see the Twin Otter added sometime, it's one of my favorite aircraft especially for short runway challenges.

Love the Sim. The new graphics are amazing and the whole world map on phone is great. Only complaint is that some of the challenges are buggy. Planes go straight up in the air upon starting, no fix even after calibration. Some challenges never trigger the event in which the scenario describes, flight over Innsbruck, sick passengers, etc. Hope they will fix, will gladly edit for 5 stars

Best graphics I have seen and definitely one of the most realistic mobile flight sims. It is challenging to get the hang of. The major downside for me is the lack of control settings. The only option is to use your phone's gyro, but I would prefer to use an on-screen joystick. The controls seem to be touchy at times, though that may be a hardware problem. Interactive cockpits are amazing. Limited choice of planes which vary from $0.99-4.99 which is reasonable. Only a few locations. Solid 9/10

When I first played this sim I was genuinely impressed. The amount of detail in the cockpit of some of the planes is extensive, the physics are pretty good, and the sim is ovall immersive. However, I can no longer recommend this sim because it's extremely unstable. It seems like each after each version of Android since Android 10 it's become more unstable and now with Android 13 the game is straight up unplayable. I hate to hate this sim but it been at least 2 years and no patches have come out.

Amazing game! I absolutely love it and most of the planes interiors are fully working. The graphics are astonishing! The only downside is that you are very limited to planes. I wished if you could get a Boeing 787 Dreamliner and other planes like that. Update: I was creating a flight plan and they say that you can save it for later use, but it just crashes the game if you save it. Hope they can fix that bug or get rid of the feature to save it all together.

The game is really good. The 737 is so far my favorite plane, but I have started to notice that the game would freeze for half a second and then I can't hear anything. Then after 6 or 7 seconds, the game freezes again and then I can hear, but then the same process starts again. Besides that, the game is the most realistic flight simulator I've seen mobile. I was just hoping for the global senery to be free. Edit 1: I am changing my review to 5 stars because the freezing stoped.

Well, first, thank you to Laminar. I really appreciate the opportunity to learn the basics of flight in another format other than MSFS. What is especially nice is being able to extend flaps and push & pull the throttle on the flightdeck instead of having to use the touch faxcimilies, which don't look very good and some of which (the flap level) faxcimilie doesn't work. Another great feature is the readability of the labels on the consoles (in some models) when you zoom in close. Also, one can pan the whole scenario in playback.

Some good points as a flight sim. But, for X-Plane desktop users, it's disappointing to be missing custom or procedural buildings in major cities outside of airports, even at the highest detail level. Also needs more rotorcraft. I am certain I'm not alone in detesting subscriptions, and would rather pay a significant amount up front to have everything I need offline for life. This offers no free trial for scenery outside the demo areas, so you have to subscribe to test the features I mentioned.

I love this sim but I sure wish you would add the ability to save and resume partially completed flights. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to complete flights in stages, because not everyone has the option to just sit in a chair and play the sim for the amount of time it takes to complete even a short flight. Some of us aren't dedicated gamers but just want learn about aviation and the details of piloting an aircraft.

You can play offline. The flight modeling is super realistic. You can choose an incredible array of failures or none at all. Great customer service. They made an update to fix a problem I had. I play with graphics on maximum with no problems and super smooth frame rates. Did I say you can play offline? This is very convenient! 5 Stars!
