Briefing What Matters. NOTIME is a pilot briefing app that helps professional flight crew quickly review operational information before the flight and in the air. It organises supported Operational Flight Plans (OFPs), including Lido, NavBlue, Jeppesen and Virgin formats, into a focused, easy-to-read briefing. Available detail depends on the source document. BRIEFING • OFP analysis and operational summaries • NOTAM filtering by route, airport and operational timing • Departure, en-route and arrival weather summaries • Contaminated runway detection (GRF / RCAM) • ETOPS and escape-airport awareness • Volcanic ash, space weather and operational cautions • Interactive route map and vertical profile • Customisable operational thresholds and crew notes • Professional PDF briefing export ROUTE BUILDER Start with a supported flight number, paste a route or import an OFP. Confirm your intended departure date and time in UTC. Flight lookup may use a previous flown track; a complete route is not available for every flight. Coverage limits and missing data are identified in the briefing. LIVE ROUTE ASSIST Follow the loaded flight on the Visual Brief map using Flight API positioning, or choose device GPS. Tap a mapped airport for current weather, suggested runway, runway length, approach aids and aircraft-to-airport distance. Advisory terrain bands highlight terrain above 10,000, 15,000 and 20,000 ft. DIVERT Tap a supported airport to review applicable NOTAM restrictions by severity, with source text available for reference. FTL CHECK Enter duty details to review maximum FDP, latest on-blocks and available commander's discretion, including augmented crew, split duty, standby call-outs and delayed reporting. PRIVACY Core OFP analysis happens on your device and the complete OFP is not uploaded. Online route and weather services receive the details needed for your request. Flight API mode sends the loaded flight identifier to NOTIME's position service. Device GPS is used only when selected. Optional anonymous app-use analytics are off by default and controlled in More. IMPORTANT NOTIME is a supplementary briefing and situational-awareness aid for qualified flight crew. It does not replace the official OFP, approved charts, company procedures, dispatch information, ATC or pilot judgement. Live data may be delayed, incomplete or unavailable and must never be used as the sole basis for navigation, diversion, approach or landing decisions.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PilotBox at 4.9 against NOTIME's 3.0. PilotBox also leads on ratings volume (26 vs 1). NOTIME's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
