Just pure awesomeness.
I’ve had this app for years, but I just realized that I don’t think I ever wrote a review for it, and I feel awful! This simulator is awesome. Sometimes it gets my heart beating out of my chest. It can get really, really intense and you’ve gotta be very quick and on your toes at all times. If this is how being an air traffic controller really is, then I have to send a thank you to all REAL air traffic controllers to let you all know how much I truly appreciate your work in getting us there and back again safely everyday. You guys are the unsung heroes of the aviation industry. Also, the developer for this app is awfully friendly and I can’t thank him enough for this simulator. This is easily one of the best (if not THE best) sims of any type on the AppStore. If you’re looking for a good simulator to test your reflexes and brain, look no further. This is just a great app. Thanks to the developer for this awesome piece of software!!!!

Most realistic game I’ve seen for ATC
Been playing this game for probably around 10 years, maybe longer. The game keeps me on my toes and keeps me sharp as a 20 year retired controller. I do not usually do the voice, as it lags behind in the more difficult settings, which is what I play. You cannot effectively control airplanes when wrong acft takes a clearance, or pilots don’t respond. Yes, it does occasionally occur in real life, but does not happen routinely. I’ve used various headphones and bluetooth earbuds, but voice control does not seem to work well in the highest most complex levels. But overall game is still great and mostly challenging. Would like to see some new sectors, and a change for a few minor issues I have recommended to the developer.

Overall Good
I think this game is pretty good but would be nice to have some additional features to manage traffic such as being able to assign a hold. The departures also can occur at bad times and force an accident. It would be nice to have the ability to force all departures to a specific runway.
Was Fantastic
This was brilliant - the voice recognition worked perfectly. With subsequent updates it barely recognises anything I say - with the exact same setup. I have messaged support on more than one occasion but sadly received no response.
Fun Game
I found this game very fun to play. I would like to see a bug fix that enables planes to line up on final approach better instead of oscillating back and fourth across the approach path.
Work ATC, and scramble F-16s LOL!
I enjoy this game very much. Normally I don't use the voice features that much so I can spare the wife my rambling when were either on vacation or at home. The interface was very well thought out on directing airspeed, altitude, course/fix instructions. One impressive thing is when moving the sliders, the set values appear to the side/above in a way that a finger isn't covering them up. That's how detail oriented this app was designed. Support is fantastic, even though later it was obvious what I wasn't doing to add additional maps, support responded right away on how exactly I was supposed to click the right things to get additional fields. Did I mention you can also scramble F-16s? That kills me everytime and got to laugh but hey it works real well though, definitely a cool feature added to the game. Well done and hope this app gets supported for a very long time. Thanks to the support/dev also for any help I needed in the meantime. Game is worth it, pick it up!

Bereue es die App gekauft zu haben
Also ganz ehrlich die App ist echt nicht gut!
Ich fliege selber als Pilot auf Vatsim, alles super prefessionell und ich dachte mir dann okay also schaue ich mir mal die App an. Aber nicht zu empfehlen. Ja man muss sagen sie ist akkurat und die Waypoints passen soweit, aber die Realität bzw. das was ich aus dem Simulatorfliegen als real ansehen, wird hier nicht vertreten. Echt schade. Auch die Spracherkennung ist für den Mülleimer… gibt besseres. Man versucht dem Flieger was mitzuteilen, aber immer kommt fragt dann ein anderer, ob ich es wiederholen kann. Also sehr enttäuscht!!! Außerdem werden in Europa meist sogenannte STAR‘s also standard instrumental departure routes vergeben - nicht vorhanden. Schade!!! Die App hat zwar Potenzial, aber da sollten mal Leute dran sitzen, die was davon verstehen… Und man braucht nicht unbedingt coolen Sound oder irgendwelche sprachlichen Rückrufe der Flieger… man kann auch einfach Texten… naja am Ende bin ich echt drauf reingefallen

A childish sim
It’s attractive - mostly over the top attractive. Simplistic control. Cheesy. I’d recommend Atc4Real over this one. It has promise, but needs more realism and less fancy graphics.
ATC VOICE
Excellent Simulador, 99% REAL, Muy útil para pilotos estudiantes y pilotos en activo, para que podamos comprender el GRAN DESAFÍO DE LOS CONTROLADORES DE VUELO
よくできています
航空管制ゲームは単調になりがちですが、アクシデントやスクランブルなどもあり、よく工夫されています
音声認識はハードルが高く未利用ですが、タッチ操作だけでも価格に見合った価値は十分にあります

Super Fun Game, but needs PTT rather than the current button
As a new player(downloaded this yesterday), I find the voice command button to be tedious to use. I wish it had push-to-talk rather than a on/off type button it uses currently.
Good game, voice doesn’t work well, or really at all.
Good game
Voice command problems
Somethings wrong with the voice commands. The app doesn’t understand my voice no matter how precisely I pronounce the words. Even with the iPad directly in front of me in a completely silent room, it still could not understand what I was saying. I know it’s not me because I’m using my iPad to transcribe this review. I tried using ATC with AirPods but I only heard sounds and music, the app could not hear my voice at all.

Response from developer
Sorry for the trouble. Thank you for the feedback. AirPods and other bluetooth headsets have been difficult to get working with the speech recognition engine, but it should work well with the built-in mic. The game uses an offline speech recognition system, which works differently from voice transcription, it only recognizes a small set of words, but doesn't require the internet. I will do some testing and research into improving this. Feel free to email me at support@atcvoice.com.

Thank you for the Christmas Gift!
Another update with a new sector greeted me for an early Christmas gift. Thank you! I have thoroughly enjoyed your app for years and with each enhancement I enjoy it more!
Excellent Sim for ATC
I spent hours playing this game, and it’s very very challenging and enjoyable, and with the new fighters that have been attached to it as a larger dimension to this game.
Too bad latest patch broke voice commands
I don’t know what happened but the recent patch has somehow made the voice control terrible. It rarely recognises anything, when it does it gets the plane wrong and often the commands wrong. Nothin in hardware changed and the only thing different is the app update. My fault for updating anything on a n iPad as you can’t roll back without a massive pain in the rear. Roll back the latest patch please and return the game to a working state. Note : I appreciate the reply. I will check again as soon as I am able. If no one else is complaining it is likely on my end. It’s a cool game though so hopefully I/we can figure it out. Adding two stars just for the fast response and offer of assistance.
Mic has no issues with any other app. It worked until the last patch. I appreciate your willingness to help but I’ll just pay ATC pro on pc which has many more features ,and works beautifully. I can’t even get this app to work with ANT Bluetooth device. So much potential but it is a very old app so nothing lasts forever.

Love it!
Great ATC game! Fun mix of simulation and gameplay. Well done!
One of the most challenging and fun games
I’m not a gamer by any means, but I do love playing this game. It’s so challenging and appears very realistic. I highly recommend this highly-addictive game, well-designed and entertaining games.
Realistic and amazing
Excellent game, realistic and never gets old. I like that you can speed up the game when waiting to make the next command. Good tutorials. Great strategy simulation and works on your spatial reasoning skills. Can’t say enough good things about the ATC voice.
