## What is ATC Drive?

ATC Drive turns everyday driving into a pilot-training-style experience. It gives you your own vehicle callsign, controller-style phraseology, and a glass-cockpit-style display. Letters and numbers are read using real aviation ATC pronunciation, so it can even help student private pilots practice radio comprehension. Beyond being fun for aviation enthusiasts, it conveys more by voice than an ordinary navigation app, which can reduce how often you glance at the screen while driving — it was designed with safer driving in mind.

HOW IT WORKS
- Search for a destination like any navigation app, and ATC Drive reads your turn-by-turn guidance aloud as aviation-radio-style ATC calls.
- Major car makers are preset, so you can quickly set your vehicle's make, model, and plate; this becomes your callsign and is spoken using the NATO phonetic alphabet.
- Transponder mode lets you choose how often guidance speaks.
- Customize the voices in detail. ATC Drive uses the voices installed on your iPhone or iPad, so add voices to your device as needed.
- With CarPlay, your car's display becomes a glass-cockpit-style navigation screen.

ATC Drive is an entertainment app for driving, not a real air-traffic-control or aviation product. Always follow road conditions and traffic laws while driving, and do not operate the app while driving.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.5 — 2026-08-01

• Improved highway recognition so the ROAD indicator switches more reliably between LOCAL, HIGHWAY, PARKWAY, and TOLL ROUTE during CarPlay navigation.
• Refined radio phraseology: vehicle and controller callsigns now appear together only at key moments, and highway transitions no longer use inappropriate aviation phase names.
• Added location-aware airspace and tower advisory names where bundled public data is available.
• Additional navigation and reliability improvements.

### 1.4 — 2026-07-15

• CarPlay search now lets you choose from your Favorites and Recent destinations, not just type an address.
• Adjusted the CarPlay display layout.
• On CarPlay displays with a touchscreen, you can now pinch with two fingers to zoom the map, in addition to the on-screen zoom buttons.
• Voice guidance always starts audible. If you muted a previous drive, the app unmutes when you begin a new route or relaunch, so you are never left without guidance by mistake.
• Other minor fixes and improvements.

### 1.3 — 2026-07-09

• Now works with CarPlay. Your ATC-style voice guidance stays the same, now with the airspace-overlaid map and glass-cockpit-style instruments shown on your car's display.
• Choose the voices you want. In Settings, browse the English voices installed on your device, preview them, and pick your favorites.
• You can now keep your music or podcasts at full volume while guidance speaks. (The option to briefly lower other audio during voice guidance is still available too.)
• Improved the map and instrument display.
• Fixed an issue where the map's direction of travel could drift from straight up during navigation.

### 1.2 — 2026-07-02

* Optimized the voice selection algorithm.
* Added individual volume controls for each voice in Settings.
* Improved usability by adding three volume levels and a mute option to the speaker button on the navigation screen.
* Fixed minor bugs.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-28

• You can now choose the spoken-guidance voice. In Settings, select from the English voices installed on your device.
• Guidance now prefers more natural, easier-to-understand voices. Adding higher-quality voices (Enhanced / Premium) on your device makes the readout even more natural — Settings shows you how.
• Improved the in-navigation map display.
• Fixed a bug where setting a new destination after ending navigation wasn't applied.
• Minor bug fixes and stability improvements.
