Very helpful tracker

Finally something built for actual aviation professionals. Straightforward, no clutter, and really helpful for keeping tabs on aircraft activity.

Amazing app

This is an amazing app for pilots to track specific planes that may be blocked for their own purposes. The UI is just awesome looking. It’s easy to add planes and it’s very easy to see where the planes are. It has some basic features and I’m looking forward to the advanced features that will be coming soon as a newly created software. This is absolutely the best software for tracking airplanes that may be blocked. It’s especially useful if you have a specific reason to need to track these planes for your work. As far as I know, there is no other software like this so it’s one of a kind. The only option for pilots right now is to use ADSB exchange, which is extremely cluttered. This rival is bigger software like Flight radar 24 as far as tracking goes.

Highly Functional, will be replacing other apps I use

Quick setup to track a few aircraft I was interested in. Handy notifications of those aircraft operating. Very well thought out dashboard.

This app is very new but already is going to be replacing several other apps I use to track aircraft for me. The interface is intuitive and simple. Also, super quick and helpful response from the developer.
