ATC Copilot vs ATC

ATC Copilot transcribes air traffic control radio in real time, entirely on your device. No internet, no servers, no account — your audio never leaves your iPhone. Built on a speech model fine-tuned specifically for the clipped, noisy, fast-paced language of ATC communications, it turns live radio into readable text and highlights the items a pilot must not miss. KEY FEATURES • Fully offline — all processing runs on-device with Apple Neural Engine acceleration • Real-time live transcription that streams word by word as you listen • Safety-critical highlighting — runways, altitudes/flight levels, headings, speeds, frequencies, squawk codes and QNH stand out automatically • Current-instruction strip — the latest assigned runway, altitude, frequency and more, at a glance • ATC-aware formatting — phonetic letters and spoken numbers are rendered the way pilots read them ("two seven left" → "27L", "alpha charlie" → "AC") • Private by design — nothing is uploaded, cached, or shared WHO IT'S FOR Student and rated pilots building radio comprehension, aviation enthusiasts following live ATC, and anyone who wants a private, offline record of what was said on frequency. IMPORTANT ATC Copilot is a transcription and study aid only. It is not certified for, and must not be used for, real-time flight operations, navigation, separation, or any safety-of-flight decision. Always rely on official communications and approved equipment. Transcription accuracy is not guaranteed.

Designed For Student Pilots who are leaning to talk on the radio! ATC Trainer helps pilots practice radio communication in common towered and non-towered airport scenarios. Work through realistic ATC calls, listen to clearances out loud, and practice responding with speech. The app checks your readback and lets you know what was correct or what was missed, helping you build cleaner, more confident radio habits. Practice scenarios include ground operations, in-air instructions, and airport arrivals. You can also set your aircraft tail number and airplane make so calls are personalized to your aircraft. Features • Towered and non-towered airport scenarios • Ground, in-air, and approaching airport practice • Speech-to-text readback practice • Feedback for missing or incorrect readback items • Optional spoken ATC clearances • Custom tail number and airplane make • Voice selection support for installed iOS voices • Practice for taxi, takeoff, traffic, approach, landing, and pattern calls
