StarCompanion turns your iPhone or iPad into a second-screen MFD for Star Citizen. Live market data, your own fleet, contract scanning, mining reference, and a MobiGlas-style control panel - all on the device sitting next to your keyboard. TRADE • Ad-hoc route discovery ranked on live UEX Corp prices, sized to the actual cargo capacity of a ship in your fleet • Multi-leg run tracking: mark legs planned, bought, sold or deferred as you fly them • Chain the next leg from wherever you just landed, with onward options recomputed • Cargo Notes: record what you're carrying and get the best buyers for it • Every price figure carries its age, so you know when a number is stale FLEET • Build your fleet from the full FleetYards ship database • Cargo, crew, and hardpoint figures on every hull • Fleet totals feed the trade and hauling tools automatically HAULING • Scan hauling contracts with the camera - box counts, commodities, and stops read straight off the screen • Every scan lands in a review form first; nothing is saved without your confirmation • Route optimizer orders your pickups and drop-offs MISSIONS • Track accepted contracts, payouts, and progress alongside your runs NAVIGATION • Route planner with quantum fuel drawn from your ship's real tank • Browse systems, planets, moons, and terminals MINING • Rock composition and value reference • Consumable calculator for resistance and instability • One-gadget warning, because two blows the rock SHOP • Component and ship stock across known terminals • Rarity index for the parts nobody stocks JOURNAL • Live activity feed from your own game session via the desktop bridge FLIGHT CONTROLS • MobiGlas-style panel that sends keystrokes to your PC through StarCompanion Bridge, a free open-source helper you run yourself, over an encrypted local-network connection • Fully customisable layout: hide tiles, reorder them, add your own • Requires a Windows PC on the same network; controls are disabled and clearly marked when the bridge isn't connected REQUIREMENTS Market, ship, and shop data need a free UEX Corp API key, entered during onboarding.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Oxbot FPV at none against StarCompanion's 1. Oxbot FPV also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
