PreBrief
Read full descriptionHide full description
PreBrief is a pilot-grade pre-flight briefing for passengers, built by an active line captain. Tell PreBrief your flight number; it pulls the schedule, aircraft, and route, then builds a personalised checklist that wakes up at the moments that matter — T-7d, T-72h, T-48h, T-24h, T-2h, T-30m. Each card is one short, opinionated instruction from a working captain — what to pack, when to check in, how to plan post-arrival recovery, what changes on a widebody. FREE • One active trip (a trip whose departure is in the future) • Live countdown to your departure, ticking down to the second • Full pilot-curated checklist with time-sensitive notifications at every T-bucket • Three free flight-data lookups via AeroDataBox; after that, add trips from your calendar, from a pasted confirmation, or by hand — none of those uses a lookup • Swipe a trip card left to delete, right to archive once the flight is past • Flight rights eligibility verdicts under EU261, UK261, and US DOT • Schedule-change checking every time you open the app, with the last-checked time always visible • Passport validity checked against your destination's entry rules PREBRIEF PLUS • Unlimited active trips and unlimited AeroDataBox lookups • Destination briefing — currency, plug type, eSIM availability, arrival-day weather via WeatherKit, and passport-aware visa hints • Captain's notes on the specific aircraft and route family you're flying • Jet-lag plan — how far your body clock has to move, how many days to allow, when to shift bedtime, and what to do with light and sleep when you land • Time to leave — traffic-aware leave-by alerts via Apple Maps, with a heads-up notification five minutes before you need to go • In-flight companion — phase-by-phase narration from boarding through landing, designed for nervous flyers • Pre-filled compensation emails for EU261, UK261, and US DOT delays and cancellations, citing your booked time, the revised time, and when the change was recorded • Flight Watch — background schedule checking that re-times your whole briefing when the airline moves your flight, and alerts you when it does • Live Activities — on the day you fly, your flight on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island: countdown, terminal and gate, and exactly when PreBrief last checked with the airline EVERY TIER • Paste your booking confirmation — PreBrief reads the flights out of it on your phone (Apple Intelligence where it's on) and fills in the trip for you to check. Nothing you paste leaves the phone • Add a trip from your calendar — read on your device, filled in for you to check, and marked as your calendar's times until matched with the airline • Every time on its airport's clock — departures and arrivals in local time, as the ticket has them • Made for iPad — sidebar and briefing side by side • Share a flight as plain text with whoever is meeting you — it says when its times were last checked and when it was sent • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets — your countdown and what's due next, at a glance • Your own checklist items — add what the captain's checklist can't know, reorder and snooze them, and reuse them on your next trip • Time-sensitive alerts so you never miss check-in or boarding • "Mark complete" right from the notification — no app launch needed • Travel documents — passport and visa expiry dates, checked against your destination, with renewal reminders. Dates and countries only; never document numbers • Privacy-first: trips and preferences stay on your device, syncing only via your iCloud • No tracking, no analytics, no ads PreBrief Plus is $4.99/month or $29.99/year. Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled in your Apple ID settings. Built and curated by an active A350 line captain. The checklist evolves as the operator flies new routes and updates the rules.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tirana Trail at none against PreBrief's 2. Tirana Trail also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
