My 2-year-old daughter recently became obsessed with airplanes. Every day, she adorably asks me to find her planes in the sky, and she becomes delighted when I locate one for her. Naturally, like all dads, I took it upon myself to do a bit of DIY. Aviator is the result: - Live Aircraft Radar: Track nearby planes in real-time - Map Overlay: Toggle between the radar view or a detailed local map - Customisable Colours: Personalize your display with your kid's favourite - Modern Retro: Marrying cutting-edge graphics shaders and haptics with old-school CRT display and radar beeps This app uses the free OpenSky API - https://opensky-network.org/

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Wallet Creator at fortnightly against Aviator's every 17 months. Wallet Creator also leads on ratings volume (348 vs 51). Aviator's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Aviator holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wallet Creator has 348 ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Wallet Creator's written reviews are positive against 54% of Aviator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Wallet Creator ships an update fortnightly, Aviator every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
