## What is AirportScout?

AirportScout answers one question before every flight: how long is the security line right now?

Open the app, pick your airport, and see live wait times for every checkpoint — reported by travelers at the airport and backed by official TSA wait-time data. No trip planner, no clutter, no account required. Just the number you need before you leave for the airport.

LIVE WAIT TIMES, TWO SOURCES
• Real reports from travelers, cross-checked and weighted for accuracy
• Official TSA wait-time data fills in when reports are quiet
• Honest labels on every number — you always know if it's live, limited, or an estimate

TODAY'S WAIT TREND
See how the line has moved across the day on a 24-hour trend chart. Spot the morning rush, find the quiet windows, and know whether the wait is climbing or easing before you head out.

CLEAR AND TSA PRECHECK LANES
Standard, TSA PreCheck, and CLEAR lanes are tracked separately, so you see the wait for the lane you'll actually stand in.

REPORT IN SECONDS
At the airport? Tell fellow travelers what you see. Reporting takes a few taps, and quick verification of other reports keeps the numbers trustworthy. Earn badges and climb the community leaderboard as you go.

WORKS OFFLINE
Your home airport, recent reports, and typical wait patterns are stored on your device, so the app stays useful even without a connection.

ANONYMOUS BY DEFAULT
No sign-up needed — start using the app immediately. Your location is used only on your device and is never uploaded. Sign in with Apple or email only if you want to keep your history across devices.

Wherever you're flying, know the line before you're in it.

Not affiliated with or endorsed by the TSA or DHS.
