The world's first drone Remote ID scanner made by Dronetag. _____ READ BEFORE DOWNLOADING! Limited access to features on some phones is caused by manufacturers’ restrictions. All iOS phones, for example, prohibit app access to Wi-Fi, so only Bluetooth data transmission will work (if and only the drone has an active Remote ID over Bluetooth). It is not a flaw of our app; we cannot fix this, and we don’t deserve negative reviews for these issues. _____ Transform your phone or tablet into a drone scanner and track all the nearby flights over Direct / Broadcast Remote ID standards. Browse real-time data about drones on a detailed map highlighting specific flying space zones. Download Drone Scanner for free and discover what drones fly above your head. Favourite features: - Discover more about drones flying nearby in real-time - Examine detailed information broadcasted by drones via Bluetooth 4, Bluetooth 5, Wi-Fi Beacon, and Wi-Fi NAN - Browse a detailed map with your location and all nearby aircraft - Check available data about drones, including real-time height, direction, pilot identification, pilot position, operation description, and location history - Various flying zones marked and highlighted on the map - Easy export of collected data - Continuously updated to reflect the latest EU & US regulations All these features you find in Drone Scanner – a free app for tracking drones. The app is developed by Dronetag, manufacturing devices for remote drone identification. How it works: Anyone can quickly identify what drones are flying in the sky nearby. Direct Remote ID is a feature that transmits live flight data via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to the surrounding area. Drone manufacturers use various technologies to build an identification feature in new drones. Older drone pilots use add-on devices, enabling them to become digitally visible. With hardware on your smartphone, Drone Scanner can receive and read broadcasted data.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Drone Scanner at 1.8 against Earzz monitors's 1.0. Drone Scanner also leads on ratings volume (145 vs 1). Earzz monitors's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (25% vs 16%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Drone Scanner holds the better App Store score, 1.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drone Scanner has 145 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 16% of Drone Scanner's written reviews are positive against 25% of Earzz monitors's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Drone Scanner ships an update every 3 months, Earzz monitors every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
