It is so much fun sharing with my grandchildren. I have shared this app with my brothers and my own children and they all love it too they must have. ### 5/5 — Flight numbers are accurate, but *2026-01-23, version 1.2.1* I love the way that the app has instant access to information about overhead planes! But departure and arrival airports are not always accurate. ### 5/5 — A simple solution! *2026-01-19, version 1.2.1* I love this app. It’s doing exactly what I wanted it to do, which is to show me the planes in my immediate area. One really cool enhancement would be if it had widget capability, so I could see this view there. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-01-13, version 1.2.1* Nice job on the UI and appreciate it being free. Would it be possible to extend the radar range even further and be able to also see aircraft anywhere in the world. Great app and looking forward to what’s to come. ### 5/5 — Awesome App!! *2026-01-12, version 1.2.0* Well designed and has a great UX. I enjoy just playing around with it watching the skies. Thank you Dennis! ### 5/5 — Curiosity satisfied! *2026-01-11, version 1.2.0* Neat, free and non-invasive. “What’s that plane? Where’s it going?” Answered simply, most of the time - but sometimes the data just isn’t available. Well worth the space on my phone. Many thanks to the developer. ### 5/5 — Fun way to “bird” watch! *2026-01-11, version 1.2.0* This app is amazing! Easy, simple interface and fun information about the man made birds you see above you! ### 5/5 — Beautiful and fully formed *2026-01-10, version 1.2.0* A design triumph. Super clear and straightforward. Essential information perfectly organised. Works like a charm. So good to finally see a flight app not overloaded with bloat content and lacking design. Should get an Apple Award. ### 5/5 — Nice interface *2026-01-10, version 1.2.0* Fun to use ✈️🌎🌍🌏 ### 5/5 — Beyond words *2026-01-07, version 1.2.0* Excellent Job😀 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Defective app *2026-05-24, version 1.3.1* Doesnt show anything inspite of plane passing overhead ### 1/5 — No use *2026-05-12, version 1.3.0* Flight radar showed aircraft overhead ( and visible contrail to verify ) but Zephy radar did not return echo. ### 1/5 — I don’t see any plains on the screen even as I hear it *2026-04-04, version 1.3.0* Why can’t I get it to work? ### 1/5 — Right flight, wrong route *2026-01-24, version 1.2.1* Cool app, shows inaccurate end points for observed flights but seems to see where the flights or tail starts the day and where it finally stops. Back to FlightAware! ### 1/5 — Inaccurate data, but it’s pretty *2026-01-13, version 1.2.1* This app looks really cool and is easy to navigate. Unfortunately the flight numbers are not accurate when checking against other trusted sources like Flight Aware and FlightStats. Hopefully you can fix this and I’ll update my review then. ### 2/5 — You don’t need my location. *2026-05-16, version 1.3.0* What if I want to see what overhead at my other property? Or if I want to tell my mom to head outside at her place? Or if I want to look above me but simply don’t want to give an app access to my location data? ### 2/5 — I don’t see any plains on the screen even as I hear it *2026-01-25* Why can’t I get it to work? **Developer response:** Sorry to hear that you're having trouble getting the app to work. That's definitely not the experience I want you to have. If the app isn't showing aircraft, it could be related to location permissions, connectivity, or a more limited data coverage in your area. If you're open to it, feel free to reach out to me at info@getzephy.com and I'll be happy to try and troubleshoot this ### 2/5 — No planes *2026-01-14, version 1.2.1* I live 2 miles from an airport and I don’t see any aircraft on the app ### 3/5 — Not accurate *2026-04-25, version 1.3.0* The interface is cool, but the departure and destination of flights is inaccurate most of the time. Not sure where the data comes from, but it’s wrong a lot. ### 3/5 — Right flight, wrong route *2026-01-11* ENY3927 LEX->DFW on FlightAware is shown as Portland Ore -> Chicago on Zephy ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Beautiful, now work *2026-06-17, version 1.3.1* Best, simple, beautiful, free — great job!!! Thank you for that app ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2026-06-05, version 1.3.1* Simple and quick. ### 5/5 — What fun! *2026-05-16, version 1.3.0* This is the way plane trackers should be. ### 5/5 — Just what’s needed. *2026-05-15, version 1.3.0* I am an avid flight tracker app user of various apps. Just downloaded Zephy I love this one for its simplicity in my brief use of it so far. ### 5/5 — Beautiful UX *2026-05-15, version 1.3.0* Wow…it’s not often I find an app with a truly original UX. This is top class. ### 5/5 — Aircraft *2026-04-30, version 1.3.0* I like this site a great deal aircraft photos would be a superb addition. Will the site work in Crete, Greece! ### 5/5 — The best nearby flight tracking app ever! *2026-04-02, version 1.3.0* I love Zephy! Everything I hear a plane nearby I go running for my phone and open Zephy to see where it’s from and where it’s going!!!! ### 5/5 — Add plane pictures! *2026-03-22, version 1.3.0* Add pictures of the planes like FlightRadar24 and this app would be perfect! ### 5/5 — Simple but creative *2026-02-25, version 1.2.2* Difficult to think of an easier way to see aircraft that are just near… ### 5/5 — NICE ! But ground traffic filter doesn’t work *2026-02-05, version 1.2.2* The ground traffic filter doesn’t work. It’s always on regardless. I had no expectations for this app but I was pleasantly surprised !. It’s good !… what might make it even better is 1) A true “radar-look”, like a green radar screen with a passing/sweeping scan and “blip”. 2) Maybe a larger than 16nm range, because my local airport is 18nm away and for the sake of an extra 2nm I lose track of the aircraft on landing, but can still see it. 3) When I turn off “Show on ground vehicles” it also turns off aircraft on the ground, it should only be ground vehicles. 4) Field of view is not necessary, you could just have a “labels on/off” option. 5) And altitudes need to go above 40,000ft for traffic that fly above FL400. 6) Shame the “from” and “to” often show N/A, when FR and PF find them with no issue… Other than this, it’s great. I’m sorry to point all these things out, but it’s just a way of saying what could make it fantastic. With the above additions, it could be amazing ! I like the way it uses the actual callsign rather than the ICAO code, that helps a lot 🙏 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
