## What is Zenith?

Zenith is the point in the sky straight above you. This app is about what's passing through it.

Hear a jet and wonder where it's going? Open Zenith. Every aircraft above you, named and placed: the airline, the flight, where it came from, where it's headed, its type and how high - in words, not a cluttered map.

FOR THE AV GEEK
Notable liveries named on the aircraft, airframe facts - its age, the first time it has crossed your sky - the type as you'd say it (737 MAX 8, CRJ-900), and a logbook of everything you've seen.

FOR CREW AND PILOTS
METAR weather at the field, the runway in use, FAA ground stops and delays with the reason, and altitudes. Sterile Cockpit keeps the words plain.

FOR THE TRAVELER
My Flights follows your trip: add a flight, or import a booking from a screenshot (or, signed in, a forwarded email), and its card keeps up with the gate time, the landing and the aircraft. Any airport's arrivals and departures on a split-flap board.

EIGHT WAYS TO SEE THE SKY
• The Sky - the aircraft above you, nearest first, drawn where they really are.
• Poster and Duo - the plane overhead as a travel poster, or two at once.
• Flip Board - any airport's arrivals and departures on a split-flap board, with what's in the air overhead.
• Runway - which runway is in use, the wind, and what's about to land.
• Radar - a sweep of the traffic around the airfield.
• Airport Diagram - the FAA's chart of a US airfield, every taxiway on it.
• My Flights - your trips, followed.

CABIN VIBE: FOUR VOICES
The same sky, said your way. Standard. Cabin Crew: "Wonderful News, Everyone: 12 Aircraft in View!" Salty Controller: "Feed's Down. Not My Fault, for Once." Sterile Cockpit: "Traffic: 12."

ON YOUR TV
Zenith for Apple TV turns the room's biggest screen into a live window on the sky - the board, the poster or the radar, all day.

ANYWHERE
Pick any place or airport on Earth, or let Zenith surprise you.

NO ACCOUNT NEEDED
Everything works without signing in. Sign in with Apple only to keep My Flights the same on your iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and the web. Delete your account in the app at any time.

WHERE IT COMES FROM
Positions from volunteer ADS-B receivers around the world (adsb.lol, airplanes.live, adsb.fi), timetables and routes from Cirium and AeroDataBox, weather from aviationweather.gov and delays from the FAA. Zenith is for looking up, not for navigation.

Made by an avid traveler and self-proclaimed aviation geek who has never once let a contrail go unidentified.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1.1 — 2026-11-12

Board colours now mean one thing: green is on time, yellow is late, red is cancelled or diverted, and grey means we haven't heard yet — whatever the word says. Runway colours follow the aircraft: green arriving, amber departing. After dark the app keeps its night look even when the sky's answer is a little old. And a few fixes under the hood.

### 1.1 — 2026-11-08

My Flights, rebuilt.

Every flight now counts down to its own takeoff, right there in the list, and reads City to City the way a boarding pass does. Two legs on one trip show the connection between them - how long you've got, and whether it's tight.

Tap a flight (or press Select on Apple TV) for its own page: each end in big type, the flight time and distance, the gate once the airline has said, the weather at both ends, and your next leg. "‹ My flights" takes you back.

### 1.0 — 2026-11-07

No release notes.
