### 3/5 — No notifications

*2022-03-16, version 4.23*

I I downloaded the latest version and see now setting for notifications like in the older version

### 4/5 — Better graphics for this game

*2021-11-16, version 4.22*

There’s just one problem I want better graphics and different versions of the aircraft

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2021-10-24, version 4.22*

Why did I not know about this app sooner. So cool.

### 2/5 — What happened?

*2021-09-28, version 4.22*

This used to be a great app. Now, when an airplane roars overhead, I pop open the app and it doesn’t show any trace of the plane, even though I can clearly see it overhead. Any claims of “real time” are simply false. It used to work but it’s pretty useless now. Too bad.

### 5/5 — 5 Star rating

*2021-08-30, version 4.16*

Very easy to use!

### 5/5 — Great App

It  provides a  lot of useful information and it’s easy to use.

### 5/5 — I did something wrong with my settings!

*2021-08-10, version 4.15*

Where do I go to get back to my original setting

### 5/5 — My neighbor is an airport

*2021-07-08, version 4.15*

I have a good neighbor, and enjoy seeing the aircraft in the pattern.  
Now I can ID who’s up there.  Always wondered about the traffic.  
This is just for fun.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t look up flight w/o subscription

*2022-03-31, version 4.23*

App Store says free, reality different

### 1/5 — Not worth your time

*2021-09-08, version 4.17*

Can’t find the flight you’re looking for when you type info in.  What else would I want to do but track a flight?

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2021-06-10, version 4.12*

Purchased the app and crashes constantly. Can’t even reach developer.

### 1/5 — App is not working most of the time

*2021-05-01, version 4.12*

I have purchased full license for this app use to love it! Unfortunately this app is sometimes showing airplanes sometimes no data.. when you want to search airline it shows always like there is no single airplane in the sky of the specific airline. It needs update or work on it. Also want my money back since I bought full version app and it doesn’t work like advertised.

### 1/5 — Pretty bad display and erroneous info

*2021-03-05, version 4.12*

I was cheering for this app when I bought the lifetime subscription. But I don’t like the way it is laid out. That plus the information it displayed was way off  anything remotely correct.

Flightradar24 and PlaneFinder apps compared to this app. All apps showed different altitude, speed, distance flown and distance left, and so on. This app was by far the worst.

For example, A plane (A320) was coming in for landing at my local airport. This app showed that the plane was at over 13,000 feet and traveling at a speed of 318 mph. Here is the problem, the plane was on the ILS and only 6 miles from the airport.  How can it be that high and going that fast 6 miles out?

Of course, both of the other apps showed the plane closer to what would be normal that far from the airport and on the ILS.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2020-12-20, version 4.12*

Paid for lifetime subscription and now no planes at all!!  No response from emails. One star is too much. Stay away from this. Want my money back!!

### 1/5 — Not Accurate

*2020-09-03, version 4.12*

Imaginary planes. Freezes. Way too many ads.  I’m deleting it.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-06-02, version 4.11*

I paid for lifetime services and can’t get nothing for it. All the premium that comes with it doesn’t work. What a waste!

### 1/5 — Ads every 2 minutes

*2020-01-15, version 3.24*

This app is useless unless you pay and they don’t honor their lifetime subscriptions.  I paid for a lifetime subscription and they  discontinued features that people like me paid for (offered a 3 month free trial in its place).   Too bad a good product is compromised by a company that changed their apps to a subscription model and left their loyal customers with a diminished product or pay-up again.

### 2/5 — Broke a great app

*2022-09-25, version 4.41*

You know that time-honored adage, "If it's not broken, don't fix it"? This dev team went with "Since it's not broken, let's break it." Why? It went from reliable and intuitive to all kinds of f'ed up. This wasn't even ready for a beta release. Looks illegal be looking for a replacement.

### 5/5 — Love the App

*2022-05-02, version 4.28*

Love the App, I just with when I follow a flight that the App could have airplane sound. Also if the flight it at night and I’m following a certain flight, the sky will be dark.

### 5/5 — Love watching this!

*2022-01-11, version 4.23*

Thank you for creating such an awesome app!
Really enjoy watching all of the different planes flying  all around the planet. It’s fun & very helpful when heading to the airport.

### 5/5 — wish I could pay for it

*2021-12-04, version 4.23*

As someone who travels a lot this app has been super valuable in figuring out the maze of flights, transfers and connections, delays, terminal changes, etc. It’s been valuable enough where I’ve felt like I’ve wanted to pay for it to support the team behind it. However every time I try to subscribe a bug prevents me from doing so. I’ll keep trying...

### 5/5 — always accurate

*2021-12-04, version 4.23*

Love the app and it’s accuracy. UI and notifications are clear and easy to understand. I just wish it would have more realistic flight maps instead of a straight line between the departing and arriving airports. Also with it could pick up on 4 different aircraft times (gate push back, takeoff, landing, and arrival at destination gate) and send alerts for each one in notifications. That would make this an EXCELLENT app!

### 5/5 — Love it for real-time updates.

*2021-12-03, version 4.23*

I’ve tried other flight trackers that need babysitting (constant refreshing) or are flat out unintuitive. I love how I can add “my flights” for arrivals to my local airport and then get real-time updates throughout the day.

### 5/5 — Avoid subscription!!

*2021-12-03, version 4.23*

Another software developer that destroyed good software with the pursuit of subscriptions - stupid!

### 5/5 — Terrible!!

*2021-12-02, version 4.23*

I downloaded this app after reading the reviews and I wish I hadn't- it's terrible!!! It's extremely inaccurate and hard to use. Gave very little information as to the flight status and when it did it was hard to understand. First it said landed, then it was back in the air, then landed, then back in the air again, then I had no clue what happened to it! I'm going back to Flight Aware. Had that one on at the same time and it gave me all the information I needed!

### 5/5 — Keeping us aware

*2021-12-02, version 4.23*

When I first heard about this, I down loaded that same day. The bad about it is when I was out in the wilderness is when I was told about your system. I forgot that the WiFi did not work well out in the country and tried to download their and by the time I got and, heehee, I had to download again. This took most of the day and part of the night to fin the download. Well, I got it and am still trying to figure out the system. That I don’t mind. Just being aware is what truly matters. Thanks to you all who started the program.

### 5/5 — Very Reliable

*2021-12-01, version 4.23*

I was pleasantly surprised to find this app. Unfortunately the airline I use isn’t great for getting timely updates out when there are delays and changes. This app is fantastic for getting me updated much faster than the airline.

### 5/5 — Best Flight Tracker on the Market

*2021-12-01, version 4.23*

No other flight tracker app comes close to Flight Tracker. You can save and view any flight you want to the ‘My Flights’ tab, organize your flights according to trips you’re going to take in the ‘Trips’ tab, see interactive maps of any flight you choose
