Livery Coach is a leading back-end reservation and dispatch system for limousine and other transportation companies. iLivery allows bookers and passengers to make new ground travel reservations as well as review or change existing reservations, regardless of how they were booked. iLivery also allows the booker to access receipts for previous trips. iLivery also allows the booker or passenger to monitor a trip in progress, showing the vehicle type and description and the chauffeur name, and photos of both. The passenger can also view a map showing the location of the vehicle, and easily contact the chauffeur or the transportation office. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iGroup Access at none against Flightview's 2. iGroup Access also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). Flightview's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#61 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
