CharmPass vs Jet Handy

The CharmPass app lets you purchase and use fares instantly on your phone—anywhere, anytime. Just download the free app, register your debit/credit card or PayPal account in our secure system, and you're ready to go. WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS APP: • No paper fares to track. • Purchase BaltimoreLink Local Service, MARC Train, and Commuter Bus tickets all from one app. • No need to carry cash, count exact change, or find a ticket machine. • Buy and use fares instantly using a debit/credit card or your PayPal account. • Pay a single fare or multiple fares for a group of riders. HOW IT WORKS: 1. CHOOSE SERVICE 2. CHOOSE FARE 3. SELECT TICKET TYPE 4. CHOOSE QUANTITY 5. CHECK OUT COMMON QUESTIONS: Q: Do I need to be connected to the Internet? A: Cellular network or a wireless Internet connection is required to purchase tickets, but you can activate your pre-purchased tickets offline. Q: What if my battery dies? A: Just like with paper tickets, you're responsible for making sure you have a valid fare at all times, so be sure to plan ahead! IMPORTANT REMINDERS: • Don't uninstall the CharmPass app or erase your phone while you have active tickets on it. Your tickets are stored on your phone (which makes it possible to use them without a cellular network or a wireless Internet connection), so uninstalling the app can permanently erase your tickets! • Purchase your ticket anytime and activate your fare as you’re boarding. • Show your ticket to the operator of the vehicle. • Watch your battery level! Just like with paper tickets, you're responsible for making sure you have a valid fare at all times.

Jet Handy is a logbook for the planes you see. Look up, open Overhead, and there they are — every airliner in the sky around you, pulled from live ADS-B data. Tail number, airline, type, altitude, how far away. Tap one to mark it spotted, or log the whole sighting with notes and photos. THE COLLECTION Every airline's fleet, tail by tail. Browse by continent, open American or Lufthansa or Qatar Airways, and tick off the airframes you've actually seen. A counter tells you how far you've got. OVERHEAD Live aircraft near you, refreshed every fifteen seconds, on a map and in a list sorted by distance. See a plane, find it in the list, mark it — no squinting at a tail number you couldn't quite read. THE SKY LOG For the sightings worth remembering. Date, tail, airline, type, where you were standing, and what you thought. Add photos: they stay on your iPhone and are never uploaded anywhere. FLOWN The tails you've personally flown on, with the date. A separate collection from the ones you've watched from the ground, and a surprisingly good way to remember trips. BADGES Small milestones, quietly kept. Ten spotted. Five flown. SYNCED, AND FINE WITHOUT SIGNAL Your collection syncs with the Jet Handy website, so it's the same list on your phone and in a browser. Spotting tends to happen where the signal is worst, so anything you record without a connection is saved on the device and sent on automatically once you're back in range. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No ads. No analytics. No tracking, of any kind. Your photos never leave your phone, your location is never stored, and your data stays yours — export a full backup whenever you like, and delete your account from inside the app if you ever want to. Jet Handy needs a free account, and works best somewhere you can see the sky.
