    I only care about MIL traffic and this by far is the cleanest app to track those. Prefer being able to track all MIL traffic instead of what FR24 currently does on their app which is only 1 service. As mentioned below, the one thing I’d love is different icons for the different planes. FR24 has that and it’s helpful.
  • Great app

    As a pilot this app is excellent Be nice to have some additional features, like alerts based on N number or hex, and historic lookup, but must have app for pilot
  • How about some updates?

    If someone pays you for an app, it's expected to be updated. It's been over two years and the app only gets stale over time. How about an update for paying customers?
  • Unmatched data on your phone

    I’ve been using this for years as a corporate pilot and aviation tracker. I can see everything from military aircraft, Airforce One and random private flights that are blocked. The filters are a huge help because I can filter out a dozen or so flights to see if they’re airborne while I’m flying. Very powerful app with filters.
  • The 10 dollars is worth it!

    Spend the 10 dollars it’s worth it! I mainly use this app to get the registration of private or military aircraft that won’t show up anywhere else and it’s so simple quick and easy to use I love it!

    Latest version FREEZES and the only “fix” is to reboot my iPhone. Sometimes my iPhone (13 ProMax running iOS 16.1) is difficult to even turn off when this app LOCKS UP. I’m not having this problem with any other app on my iPhone.
  • Excellent app

    Excellent app that’s fast. I really like the filter by tail feature. There are a few fleets I like to track. I do wish there was a way to see my filtered aircrafts last positions even if they haven’t been airborne for a few days.
  • Suggestion!!

    Icons for specific aircraft would be helpful, as well as the link to the aircrafts planespotter page. It’s nice to look in my area and see what type of aircraft are flying without having to tap on them.
