Your iPhone is the flight controls. SkyYoke turns the phone in your hand into a precision yoke, throttle, rudder and full glass cockpit for the Infinite Flight simulator. Run it on your iPad or a second phone, share Wi-Fi, and fly in real time — no cables, no hardware. TILT TO FLY Bank and pitch by tilting your iPhone. The Motion Yoke reads gravity relative to a center you set, so any grip works. Prefer touch? Switch to an on-screen self-centering yoke pad. Tune sensitivity, dead-zone, expo and smoothing per axis. ONE SMART THROTTLE A single lever does it all: forward thrust, ground reverse, and proportional wheel braking below 40 knots — with airborne-reverse protection. Airbus pilots get a detented thrust gate (TOGA · FLX/MCT · CLIMB · IDLE · REV) with a haptic tick at every notch. A FULL COCKPIT, IN YOUR POCKET • Self-centering rudder bar • Complete autopilot — ALT, V/S, SPD, HDG with swipe-to-scrub, plus VNAV, LNAV, APPR • Overhead systems — battery, APU, external power, lights, engines, signs, autobrake • Numbered ATC keypad with a live message log • Swipe to pan the camera, double-tap to recenter, hold for cockpit view SPEAK LIKE A PILOT — 100% ON DEVICE Hold the mic and say "climb and maintain one zero thousand." The AI Voice Copilot, powered by Apple Intelligence, understands your speech and flies the command — altitude, heading, speed, lights, gear, flaps and more. Audio never leaves the device. (Requires an Apple-Intelligence-capable iPhone on iOS 26.) INSTRUMENTS THAT READ LIKE THE REAL THING • Airbus-style PFD speed and altitude tapes with trend arrow and selected-value bugs • Glass-cockpit HUD — airspeed, altitude, heading, vertical speed • Airbus-ND traffic radar with genuine TCAS II logic and spoken "Traffic, traffic" callouts • Live moving map with your track, traffic and airports FEEL EVERY FOOT Spoken "V1 · Rotate · V2" callouts. A ground rumble that builds from taxi patter to a hard takeoff roll. A heavy thunk as the gear locks. A reactive windshear warning. It doesn't just look like flying — it feels like it. PLAN THE FLIGHT A performance & weight-and-balance planner reads your live aircraft, in-sim weather and runway, and estimates V-speeds from 17 aircraft profiles. FREE TO TRY • Motion yoke, throttle and rudder • Full cockpit controls: gear, flaps, spoilers, autopilot, parking brake, pushback • Connect over Wi-Fi to a sim on another device • Fly on the ground and on takeoff (climb limited to 500 ft, thrust to 85%) GO PRO — FLY WITH NO LIMITS • Unlimited altitude & 100% thrust — fly gate to gate • TCAS Collision Avoidance with real-world advisories • Violation Avoidance System — keeps you at/under 250 kt below 10,000 ft • Performance Calculation — instant takeoff & landing speeds • Ground Contact Simulation — feel every wheel roll and touchdown • Traffic Radar — nearby aircraft on a real-cockpit-style display • AI Copilot — hands-free voice autopilot SUBSCRIPTION Pro is a subscription (weekly / monthly / quarterly / 6-month / yearly) or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SimFly Pad at 4.7 against Remote Yoke's 3.9. SimFly Pad also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (60% vs 33%). Remote Yoke's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
