Airmate is a free and easy to use flight planning and weather app for pilots, improving situational awareness and providing instant access to airport data and aviation maps, up to date weather and NOTAMs, traffic around. IFR and VFR airport plates are freely available in US (FAA charts), Europe, and more than 200 other countries. Many of them are georeferenced and could be overlaid on the aviation chart. A powerful Plate Manager allows to download in advance all airport plates in a country, they could be easily printed and viewed. During the flight, the moving map will display the aircraft location along the route, show airports and aeronautical data details and traffic around, warn you if your planned route is crossing restricted areas. A profile view is available to display terrain elevation, crossed areas and forecasted weather across the route. Airmate can also display a backup aircraft attitude indicator and flight parameters in an EFIS-like view. In the whole world, Synthetic Vision displaying in the EFIS-like view the ups and downs of rolling terrain ahead is available. In selected countries, Airmate can display scenery if this option is purchased. Airmate includes a worldwide aeronautical database updated free of charge with airports, navigation beacons, waypoints, airways, obstacles, regulated and restricted areas. Topographic maps and elevation data for most countries may be downloaded free of charge, as well as additional aviation map overlays such US Sectionals. A procedure database provide details of departure (SID), arrival (STAR) and instrument approaches in the USA, and you could add those procedures to your planned flight route (the procedure database includes all US airports, we are workding to add airports in other countries). Once loaded, the procedure path is displayed on the aeronautical map, including curved paths and racetracks. When coupled with a supported external ADS-B received, Airmate will display nearby traffic on the moving map, and receive FIS-B weather and NOTAM during the flight. To improve safety, Airmate can display neighbouring traffic received over mobile network. Such traffic include commercial airlines and transponder-equiped aircrafts, FLARM gliders, aircrafts whose pilots are using Airmate and other users using other safety broadcasting equipment. Airmate is able to transmit the flight plan data to supported avionics such Dynon SkyView. Thanks to the Auto Route feature, you could search and select the best route for your flight, and then file your VFR or IFR flight plan. Once filed, your flight plan could easily be managed, delayed or cancelled. Airmate will also record your flights and allow to replay them later or export the flight path in gpx format, you could take pictures from the app during flights. Pilot log entries are automatically computed from flown flights. A Satellite map display mode in flight planning or replay mode allows to familiarize with significant landmarks. Airmate will save planned and flown flights, user waypoints and user aircrafts in the cloud and sync them between your devices and Airmate web flight planning. Airmate brings numerous social features to the community. Pilots may leave ratings, tips and comments to share their experience with fellow pilots, and report fuel prices and landing fees. They could find friends, instructors, flight schools, aviation events and aircraft to rent near their home airport or any visited airport. Airmate may be connected to most flight simulators to keep flying skills sharp, and will manage also AHRS and simulated traffic data transmitted by the flight simulator. Planned flights and personal waypoints may be imported and exported. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Si lo hago, la app se cierra. Ipad pro ### 3/5 — Amélioration possible *2026-03-18, version 3.20* Bon point pour les mises à jour automatique. Cependant, en vol, les différentes zones ne sont pas suffisamment claires. Les délimitations sont avec des traits trop petits et je n’ai pas trouvé encore le réglage de ces paramètres. ### 4/5 — No Wind DB *2026-03-14, version 3.20* No longer getting winds aloft, Weather or NOTAMS. ### 2/5 — Las cartas no se descargan correctamente *2026-03-12, version 3.20* Ya he avisado de este problema y no ha sido atendido. Las cartas de ciertos aeropuertos no se descargan correctamente. Pensé que era mi teléfono, pero en el iPad ocurre lo mismo y acabo de cambiar de teléfono y el problema persiste. Las cartas actualizadas son lo más valioso de la app. Así que si no lo arreglan, no vale la pena pagar la suscripción. Los espacios aéreos en la pantalla de navegación son incompletos. No detallan las áreas de máximos visuales. Es una excelente app, pero poco útil si no arreglan esos puntos. ### 5/5 — Good product *2026-03-01, version 3.20* For an app that is free, I am surprised that they give us pilots all of this stuff where we had to pay for it, but airmate provides it for free. I am a huge fan of this app. ### 5/5 — Airmate *2026-02-19, version 3.20* Eccellente App ### 3/5 — No están actualizadas las cartas y espacio aéreo de LEPA *2026-02-12, version 3.20* El pasado 22 de enero se cambió el espacio aéreo de Mallorca , Menorca e Ibiza y la aplicación no muestras los cambios ni actualizándola ### 2/5 — Как исправить? *2026-01-31, version 3.20* Постоянно вылетает когда захожу в чарты вылетает сразу что делать? ### 5/5 — Nice with sometimes little glitch. Outstanding but recheck FOM as was briefed before actual flight. *2026-01-29, version 3.20* Hello thanks for the latest update. unfortunately all my Weight and Balance Data have gone south. There seems to be a glitch while reentering the Data. Please check this. Still trouble sending Data for Fuel planning in Liters setting wants still Gal, though L selected. Otherwise depicting of charts it defaults to a chart always though deselected. ### 4/5 — Not satisfied for 16Pro *2026-01-22* Not satisfied for 16Pro ## Frequently asked questions about Airmate ### What does Airmate do?
