Loop starts with a screenshot of your trip. Your flights, layovers and show times land on a calendar. Add reserve, standby and commutes, and that's your month. Create links to share with family and friends. It's free for them, and nobody needs an account. They get flight tracking, alerts when you push, land, run late or get cancelled, and plain answers to where you are, what you're doing, how much longer, what's next and when you're home. All in their time, with yours beside it. Every link is yours. Turn one off and it's gone from their phone. Loop tracks the flight, not you. It never asks for your location. For you: local and home time side by side, a widget that counts down to the next thing, and the trip on a map. Loop isn't an official schedule and won't update schedule changes for you. If your schedule changes, upload the new one, or Loop will continue to use the outdated schedule. Check your airline's schedule for official times. Loop for crew is offered as a monthly or yearly subscription with a 14-day free trial. Family links are always free.
