Not happy

First time using them and mid flight they already stopped working

They are so good

I used these coming home from Mexico from having extreme ear pain from the few last times I was flying and I got these then got the app and it’s so good my ears didn’t hurt once on that flight!

needs a no-notification mode

I put the plugs in before the cabin door closes and remove them after it opens. I don’t need an app for that. It would be nice if I could just see the cabin pressure without the privacy violating location services and annoying notifications. Useless for me without that.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! The app does not send location information to a server and we do not track it. EP+ needs location services in order to run while in the background. Otherwise the iOS operating system stops the app from monitoring cabin pressure changes and sending local push notifications to put in / take out your earplugs if you are using other apps during your flight.

Easy app!

Easy to use and such an incredible product. Truly changed my life because i really considered no longer flying before finding these.

Ear Planes app

I just loved the EP app! It was fascinating to observe the pressure changes when the plane was ascending and descending. Now I understand why my ears have always bothered me. Until Ear Planes were available, I had such ear pain, I thought I would have to give up flying.

Required by my ENT

Having experienced severe ear pain 35 years ago that required a tube insertion in my ear drum, an experience you never forget, I experienced ear pain on Christmas and my ENT checked me out. He gave me 2 Rx and told me to buy EarPlanes. That app guides and informs you during the flight and I will never fly again without them. Small children should be protected by children’s size EarPlanes, be pro-active.

Appreciate earplanes

I have issues with my inner ear due to a prior upper respiratory infection and fluid in my ear. Before I discovered earplanes I tried Dramamine and still got sick. I am thankful I picked these up at a store. Not only did I not feel sick, I was also able to eat and drink on the plane. I also did not struggle with vertigo. I think these are a good investment. It helped me with my struggle with motion sickness.

Super cool and informative

At first I was wondering why do you need an app for ear plugs! But turns out it’s such a great idea. You can track cabin pressure and then plan your ear plugging accordingly. Also, lots of interesting info about cabin pressure, rate of change of pressure, etc. My advise to the company is you have a great product and a nice app that goes with it but on the packaging, the novelty is not at all clear. Just a barcode with nothing explaining why it’s useful to download.

Advertises in push notifications

It’s common for apps to ignore the rules these days and advertise in push notifications, but it’s still annoying.

Otherwise it’s actually a great app. Clean interface and utilizes sensors remarkably well. I really like it when it’s not trying to get me to buy more of them for the holidays.

Works perfectly.

App is great, don’t go on a flight without it or earplanes.
