Aerodex - Plane Catching Game

Aerodex tells you what's flying over your head. A plane goes over. What is it? Where is it going? Hold up your iPhone and Aerodex marks the real planes and helicopters in the sky around you, using live flight data. Put one in the frame and you'll know straight away: the aircraft type, the airline, its usual route, how high and how fast it's flying, and how far away it is. Then keep it. Hold it in the frame for a moment and it goes into your Aerodex: your own collection of every aircraft you've really been under. KNOW WHAT'S ABOVE YOU • Live planes and helicopters within about 25 miles (40 km) and high enough to see, marked where they are in the sky through your camera • Arrows point to aircraft just out of view • Type, airline, flight number, usual route, height, speed and distance • A trip map when the route checks out, and "Route not confirmed" when it can't be right, so you're never told something that isn't true • Nothing in range? It tells you which aircraft is on its way, and when FILL YOUR AERODEX • 56 aircraft types in six sets: Boeing, Airbus, Regional, Light aircraft, Helicopters and Military • 78 airlines from around the world, in six regions • A stamp for every airport your catches flew from or to • A real photo of each type once you've caught it, and a "sighting" stamp of when, how far and how high you saw it • Common, Uncommon, Rare and Legendary aircraft. Every 747 is Legendary. • Cards turn Silver and then Gold as you catch a type again • Levels, ranks from Ground Crew to Sky Legend, 48 patches to earn and five card styles to unlock • A new set of special aircraft every week, and real special paint schemes that are always special • "Look up!" tells you when something rare is overhead or on its way, and which way to turn • Share any catch as a picture MADE FOR FAMILIES • No accounts, no sign-up, no chat, no strangers, no leaderboards • Your Aerodex stays on your phone • Nothing from your camera is ever saved or sent • Your location is rounded to about a kilometre before it's used to find aircraft • One small banner ad, only on the Aerodex page. Never while you're aiming or catching. Ads are always family-safe and never personalised. • A one-time purchase removes ads for good. Purchases ask a grown-up first. • No streaks. Missing a day costs nothing. FOR EVERYONE • Can't hold the phone up? Pick from a list of aircraft close and high enough to see, and keep one with a tap • Supports VoiceOver and Switch Control • Respects Reduce Motion • A compass nudge in Settings lines the marks up with the real aircraft GOOD TO KNOW • You need location, a data connection and a view of the sky. The camera is used live, to aim; you can also play from the list without it. • Aircraft positions come from a network of volunteer receivers. Most airliners show up. Some small, old or military aircraft don't broadcast, and some areas have gaps. • Routes are the flight's usual route, which isn't always today's. • Card photos show the type, not the exact aircraft you saw. • For iPhone, iOS 17 or later.
