非常感谢您的评价!我们一直在努力让应用为您带来更好的体验。祝您旅途平安!

Top et pratique

Application super, très fonctionnelle et on s’amuse à vouloir rentrer nos vols d’il y a 20 ans. Il y a beaucoup de choses pratiques pour les escales par exemple, ou les terminaux.
Concernant le vol des amis, c’est bien pour pouvoir les suivre.
Pour ma part, deux petites améliorations pourraient être apportées : qu’on puisse indiquer le nom de l’ami, si celui-ci n’est pas inscrit sur l’application et le suivi en temps réel de tous les avions sur une carte, comme sur certaines autres applications

Merci pour les 5 étoiles et pour cette suggestion réfléchie ! Je vais en parler à l'équipe et nous verrons ce qui est possible. N'hésitez pas à continuer à nous faire part de vos idées

Schöne App mit einigen Bugs

Die App ansich ist wirklich sehr schön anzuschauen und bietet unzählige Features. Leider treten beim Hinzufügen vergangener Flüge unzählige Hänger auf. Man kann immer nur drei oder vier Flüge hinzufügen, danach hängt sich die App beim Hinzufügen eines neuen Fluges auf. Die Datei von MyFlightradar konnte ohne Angabe von Gründen nicht eingelesen werden. Sobald die App stabiler ist, bekommt sie fünf Sterne.

Hallo, das klingt nicht richtig, und wir möchten das beheben! Schreib uns einfach an connect@byairapp.com oder direkt in der App, und wir kümmern uns sofort darum.

Лучший помощник для тех, кто всегда на высоте

Я пользуюсь ByAir регулярно и для тех, кто часто летает, это действительно очень удобное приложение. Рейс отображается наглядно и информативно: сразу видно всё важное — время, изменения, терминал, выход на посадку и другие детали, без необходимости постоянно обновлять табло аэропорта.
Отдельно приятно, что иногда номер выхода на посадку появляется в приложении даже раньше, чем на табло в аэропорту)) В поездках это реально помогает, особенно когда аэропорт большой или времени между пересадками немного, как например в Шанхае или в Стамбуле. А если подключиться к вайфаю на борту самолета, то он будет выдать информацию о прилете еще точнее!
Ещё оч нравится дизайн: всё выглядит понятно и не перегружено. После поездок интересно посмотреть статистику перелётов, можно даже прикольную карточку ByAir сделать. Есть полезная информация об авиакомпании в карточке рейса и советы по конкретным аэропортам. Это добавляет приложению практическую ценность. Можно добавлять близких в друзья и следить за их рейсами. В итоге ByAir для меня не просто трекер рейсов, а удобный помощник. Я часто летаю в командировки и я уже не могу летать, пока не добавлю свой рейс в это приложение. Рекомендую!!! 10/10

Flightyと使い比べてみたが。。

JL241便の羽田空港での搭乗口変更の反映が遅い。Flightyを確認してみたところ、JALからのSMSとほぼ同タイミングで反映できていた。

加えてDynamic Islandにゲートを評して欲しいのにチェックインのカウントダウンが表示される。今時オンラインチェックインを利用すると思うので改善を希望。

この度はご不便をおかけし、誠に申し訳ございません。 byAirではフライト情報の正確性と更新速度を非常に重要視しており、今回の件を詳しく調査したいと考えております。 お手数ですが、connect@byairapp.com までご連絡いただけますでしょうか。JL241便のケースを確認し、今回ご不便をおかけしたお詫びとして補償もさせていただきます。 また、Dynamic Islandのチェックイン表示についてのご指摘もありがとうございます。こちらは次回のアップデートで修正予定です。 貴重なフィードバックをありがとうございました。

Almost perfect

Hey.
I love your application on iPhone. Nice design and so easy to use.
The thing I would add is just a special sound for notifications.
Thank you

Best app for flying!

I love this app, so much, I only just got it and it is amazing. But, just a feature request, could you add a feature where you can see if it has wifi, the wifi name, and maybe other stuff?

Not great yet

The app has a very nice design, but the functionality leaves a lot to be desired. For example the app rarely if ever pulls up automatically the inbound aircraft, and despite allowing me to add the information (tail number) manually, which I get from flighradar24, the app does nothing with it.

So delays are rarely predicted accurately because the app just doesn't have the right information.

A Great Free Alternative to Flighty!

I used to have App in the Air, but sadly, it shut down. 😢

I then switched to Flighty, which is a great app, but most of its features require a subscription. I used Flighty for about a year, but I eventually realised it wasn’t going to work for me.

So I started looking for other flight trackers and discovered byAir. It has many of the features I loved about Flighty, but they’re available for free! You can also save your flight history directly to your phone.

I’d definitely recommend byAir to anyone looking for a great flight tracker, especially if you’re an aviation geek! ✈️

Definitely one of the best flight-tracking apps out there! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Better than Flighty

Excellent app, I had an emergency flight which the app quickly picked up. Flighty however had no record of it… UI is amazing. Very good!

Приложение хорошее, но есть к чему стремиться

Очень радует, что можно бесплатно импортировать историю полета из других приложений без ограничений. В последних обновлениях сделали красивую ID с перелетами. Но есть недочеты: время перелета не синхронизируется после добавления (например изменилось время вылета, но в приложении отображается старое). Также было некорректное отображение времени фактического вылета и посадки самолета.

Good app but....

All is locked behind pay wall. Even the notifications flighty gives but this app blocks for what reason?

Response from developer

Some advanced features require a subscription because reliable flight data, development, and support are costly. If basic tracking isn’t working for you, please contact us at connect@byairapp.com or in the app - we’ll be happy to help

Top Notch App

Perfecto

Они есть, можно добавить возможность увидеть схему посадочных мест или видеть свой уровень программ лояльности например Aeroflot Bonus. Добавьте больше функций из flighty. Everything is very good, add ability to see your seat map and status in loyalty programs. Add hotel stays and train rides with carriage, class/room type and number

Love it - App in the Air Alternative

Love using this app. I used to be a user of App in the Air up until it shut down and I had struggled trying to find a similar alternative to it. I came across byAir and it is so similar to App in the Air but a little bit cooler.
