It's so unreliable now and full of bugs

This used to be great and the labels on map are far better to see than competitors but the map always shows stationary ground vehicles at certain map zooms - these get in the way of planes and labels even though GV is turned off in settings. Have toggled on/off, deleted app etc but no fix. About 40% of planes on approach or taxiing for departure don't show until you zoom out and back in again. For my use case this app is far to unreliable anymore to keep using or to even suggest to others to use.

Response from developer

Hello, Kaminokiller, we’re sorry to hear that your experience hasn’t been what you expected. If the issue is the ground vehicles showing on the map, you can turn them off: open Map Options using the map icon, go to "Map", and unselect “Show Ground Vehicles.” If you’re experiencing anything else or need a hand with the app, just email us at support@airnavradar.com. We’ll be happy to help and look into it with you!

Crashes a lot

I can’t believe the amount of times this app has crashed I. The last two days. It wouldn’t be a problem, but it loses all of your favorites and flights that you selected as following. If you’re thinking about an app, I would pass on this one

fun

interesting to see what planes are flying overhead when sitting outside

Aircraft radar

Fantastic, wish I’d got it sooner

Great but

This is a great app. Only thing I would love to see if the feature where you add a flight to follow you can have the option to make it everyday instead of having to re-add the flights again

Response from developer

Hi DrewAdam! This feature is already available in our app. 😊 Just select “Following” in the app, near the Playback option, then tap “+ Add Flight”, enter the flight number, select the flight, and tap “Follow.” That’s it! You can then keep the flight on your Following list without adding it again.

App doesn’t even open

Gets stuck in a loading screen

AirNav: Most frequent position updates

Works perfectly on my iPhone 14. Position updates frequently, there is an even-flow prediction on movement between updates.

Very incomplete

Have “used” the app for several months now. 95% of the time when there is an airplane directly overhead, and I pull up the app, there is no plane indicated for 20 miles. Kind of a useless app for me. It goes in the trash bin.

Cool

It’s a great upgrade from flight radar aside from the adds

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for the feedback! We’re glad you’re enjoying our flight tracker. If you’re still experiencing any issues with the ads, please email us at support@airnavradar.com so our team can look into it. ✈️

Nope. Lousy. No ATC

Won't allow you to listen to ATC for free even if you watch the ad. The ads loop even after playing through them.

Response from developer

Hello, Jypsurfs, that’s definitely not the experience we want you to have. Please email us at support@airnavradar.com with your device model and OS version so our team can investigate the ad loop and ATC access issue. Thanks for letting us know!

Good but bad

The ATC radio doesn’t work and it doesn’t have all the planes however flight radar 24 does

Response from developer

Hello, DJ@245, thanks for the feedback! We’re sorry the ATC radio isn’t working properly and that you’re not seeing all aircraft. Please email us at support@airnavradar.com with a few details about the issue, and our team will be happy to look into it.

Not perfect but adequate.

This app gives you a rough snapshot, with a lag time mind you, of what is going on around you in terms of airspace. It does not show active drone activity. I believe, or it appears at least, that this feeds off of ADSB (??). However I wish it did feed off of actual Radar and aircraft transponder.

Response from developer

Hello, Treyman. Thank you for your feedback. Our app displays aircraft using live ADS-B and other available flight tracking data, so there is no intentional delay. Drone activity is generally not available through these data sources, which is why it isn't shown. If you have questions about a specific aircraft or tracking issue, please contact us at support@airnavradar.com, and we'll be happy to help.

Doesn’t work

Installed app and when I open it all it just freezes.

Neue Funktion

Man sieht die zurückgelegte Route nicht mehr und endlich haben sie es auch geschafft Werbung irgendwelcher Spiele/Apps immer wieder einzublenden.
Schade, bisher war die kostenlose Version ein tolles Ding. Jetzt kann man es leider vergessen.

Response from developer

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback, Duc900. Leider werden europäische Flugrouten aufgrund von Vorgaben europäischer Behörden nicht mehr angezeigt. Die Werbung ermöglicht es uns, AirNav Radar kostenlos anzubieten, und wir arbeiten kontinuierlich daran, das Nutzererlebnis zu verbessern. Gerne können Sie uns Ihr Feedback auch direkt an support@airnavradar.com senden. Wir würden gerne mehr über Ihre Erfahrungen mit der App erfahren, um sie zu verbessern.

Disappointed Lately

I used to like this flight tracker, but recently I have been having a number of issues. Ads and banners pop up, even though I’m a paying subscriber and logged in. An “Upgrade” button is always on my screen. Planes are always popping in and out of existence now, whereas I don’t remember that ever being an issue. The screen will zoom way out for no reason. Very buggy lately. Other small things too, but enough to make me consider other options. Hope they fix these issues, but for now I’m ending my subscription and trying out other apps.

Hello, Njdinamr, Thank you for your feedback. This is definitely not the experience we want for our users.

Please send more details about the problems you encountered (device model, app version, screenshots/screen recordings if possible) to support@airnavradar.com, and our team will be happy to help.

Buggy had to delete

Wouldn’t show paths and kept zooming out. Very frustrating.

Love Radar Box

I love this app. I have 100 Apps on my iPhone and this is my favorite app. Whenever I see a plane in the sky I immediately open Radar Box and it tells me everything I want to know about that plane: Airline, airport origin & destination, altitude. speed, flight time, photos of the plane. & more. If anybody loves airplanes like I do then you will want this app. It is just so cool & amazing. I Don’t know how the inventor of this app was able to collect the flight information from every plane around the world and make it available in a single app.

A clunky dud

I took out a subscription and my main interactions were requests from the App to take out a subscription. Clunky to use and frankly I don’t put much credibility in the information I receive.

Response from developer

Please feel free to email us at support@airnavradar.com with a screenshot and a few more details, and we’ll be glad to help and investigate right away.
