So much delightful fun for an aviation nerd
I thought this was going to be like web based listening where you have to know which channel to listen to and maybe hear your flight. It’s so, so much more. You can see coms to and from your flight like they were a text message thread, the app automagically switches channels when your flight is instructed to do so, and it even transcribes NATO phonetic names to letters!

Can’t use unless you pay
Saw this app on TikTok and decided to try it out since I have an upcoming flight. You literally cannot use this app unless you do the “free trial, pay after a week” scheme. Like brother….let me try the app first before entering any type of card information. But nope. Will not let you pass go unless you put in a financial card. Wack af.

Free trial is a scam
I signed up for ATC with a seven day free trial. In less than 24 hours after using the app, I canceled the free trial because the app did not cover the airports. I was most interested in listening to. After seven days, I was billed $5.99 even though my Apple account clearly showed that the app was canceled and inactive. Apple refused to refund the payment simply stating that it did not qualify for a refund and gave no further details after appeal to Apple. They still refused to refund the payment again with no justification other than it did not qualify. The free trial is a total scam!

Really man, in this economy? Beware: corporate greed at its finest
We are all struggling so hard. You know that old song from the 20s that goes “the rich get richer and the poor get poorer”? The wealth gap is so so so so much bigger now.
Judging by the amount of advertising and high reviews you have, yall have a large customer base, so you’re not struggling to pay for the app to run.
Only allowing a free trial if you pre-commit to the YEARLY option is greedy on yalls part. You not only know, but rely on the fact that people forget to cancel their subscription. Especially those who are busy working to afford to eat. $90 isn’t a small amount of money for us.
It would be so nice to have quick and easy access to listening to ATC, but not for the cost of a days worth of food per week. I want yall to genuinely think about the people. Give us some sort of free option to even OPEN THE APP, or at the least allow the free trial on both payment plans. You’d be just fine. The price as-is is insane. Be better. For the people. Look inside and find your empathy.

Hate apps like this
Advertise it and it sounded like it would be cool. Downloaded it. And then nothing. Can’t even listen without signing up with a free trial. Don’t want to sign up for any trials. Just wanted to listen and see how it is but this app is worthless without signing up.
5 stars but for the price
It’s the best ATC app out there. I know you get what you pay for, but 80 bucks a year is way too much. For 40 I’m there. 80….nope, sorry. Plus is it a MASSIVE battery hog
Love it
Now the second I bought the subscription i was loving it but when I searched for my hometown airport I needed a request (YVR Vancouver international Airport) so I started looking at YUL Montreal. YYZ Toronto. Both needed a request so im like why buy a subscription but you need to request for some airports

Live Audio & Map
Is this where I make a request. Can you make the map with more identifiers and not dark mode and add ADS & TKI please.
This app saved my life!!
I was in John F. Kennedy International Airport yesterday and there was a tornado warning so I knew which planes were taking off and not taking off so without this app I could’ve been cooked. Thank you so much.
Education
I understand wishing there was a free version, but for less than $2/wk I’d say the subscription appears well worth it. When you first sign up it prompts questions about education level and interests which gave me a false impression of some sort of education segment involved in using the app, but there doesn’t appear to be one at the moment. I feel like most of the content is self explanatory but I’m not going to “master atc”, as it suggested just by listening to audio clips. It’s really not a huge issue and the concept for this app is great regardless. Maybe a glossary or something similar would suffice.

No freeware option
ATC feeds are freely available online. Why would I pay a stiff ongoing subscription when I can get it elsewhere for free?
Can’t pay that much
App looks amazing but I didn’t realize how expensive it was. I wish there was a free version as I only wanted to do this for fun. Hard to justify since this isn’t my job by any means.
Great app
I would give this 5 stars if there was no in app purchase but I understand people have to make money but other than that it’s an amazing app
No free option
I cannot stand apps like this. They make convincing advertisements on social media then immediately require payment to even open the app. No free or demo option. And only a 3 day trial? So frustrating
Free
There should be a free version (not the free trial) that just has fewer features. Please add this.
No iPad layout
Good app but no iPad layout so it looks slightly clunky
Good
It’s so good
Stupid
Its so stupid that you have to have a subscription to use it. Just make it free and maybe i will change my rating to 4 stars
Curious
Just need to know if I need the premium because I wanna stay free
