User reviews

Great app

Great for checking airport alerts and having all the information I need handy.

Super polished. Easy to use

This is by far one of the best aviation apps I’ve tried. I’m only a few days in and I can’t believe what I’d been suffering through previously.

The design and ease of use make a huge difference when you’re in the air. Large text and easy to access buttons and the wealth of information is staggering.
