## What is Vasco?

Vasco shows the aircraft around you, live.

FLIGHTS
A list of every aircraft nearby, the closest first, with its airline, route, altitude, speed, distance and direction from you. New arrivals are tagged as they appear.

RADAR
A radar scope centred on you, with range rings, a sweep line and every aircraft drawn on its heading. Pinch to zoom, and tap a plane for its details.

FLIGHT DETAILS
Origin and destination with progress and an estimated arrival time, a live map, altitude, speed, climb or descent rate and track, plus the airframe: type, registration, owner, an illustration of the aircraft type and a photo of the actual aircraft.

WEATHER
Current conditions and a five-day forecast. The aviation weather map shows airports coloured by flight category (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR) with wind barbs, pilot reports of turbulence and icing, the US rain radar, and live traffic on top. Tap an airport for its full METAR.

WIDGETS AND LIVE ACTIVITIES
Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show the nearest flights and the weather. Follow any flight on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.

ALERTS
Get notified when an aircraft passes low overhead, or when an airline, a callsign, a registration or an aircraft type on your watchlist shows up nearby.

DATA
Traffic comes from the OpenSky Network (optionally with your own free API client for faster updates), airplanes.live or adsb.lol. Routes come from adsbdb.com and hexdb.io, photos from Planespotters.net, weather from Open-Meteo, and aviation weather from NOAA's aviationweather.gov. The radar is from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet.

No account, no ads, no tracking.
