AirwayControl vs FlyETA

Your flight, from the moment you leave the house to the baggage belt at your destination. Every aircraft beautifully presented in the map. Avoid the constant hunt for info screens at the airport. Gate, times and changes are right on your phone, and the app tells you when something changes. At Avinor's airports in Norway, gate and baggage belt come from the same source as the screens in the hall. If something goes wrong, it keeps constant track of what you are entitled to, and guides you through claiming it with ease. MY FLIGHT • Search a flight number, a route or an airline, and add it as My Flight. • Gate, terminal, check-in desk and times on one card, with a Live Activity and a Lock Screen widget. • Notifications you choose: go to gate, gate change, delay, boarding, gate closing, cancellation and baggage on the belt. Worked out on your iPhone, with no account. • Leaving from a Norwegian airport: the expected security wait, and the reclaim belt when you land. WHEN THE FLIGHT GOES WRONG • Delayed or cancelled: what changed, and when the app last checked. • Your rights on that route, in plain language. EU261, UK261 and the national rules of 18 more countries, including Canada, the United States, Brazil, Türkiye and India. • A claim letter to the airline, filled in from what the app already knows. It opens in your own mail app and goes to the airline's own published address. We fill in the form. We are not a claims agency, and we take no fee and no cut. • Where to complain on that route, when the airline says no. • Damaged or delayed bag: the deadline that applies to you, the nearest service desk on the airport map, and every detail the airline's form asks for, ready to paste. BAGGAGE • Published allowances and fees for more than 100 airlines, by fare type: cabin bag, checked bags, extra pieces and overweight. • Allowances also depend on your ticket and status. The app says so, every time. AIRPORTS • Departures and arrivals for any airport you search or tap. • At Norwegian and Nordic airports: gate, belt, check-in desk and live status from Avinor's official feed. • Airport maps with surveyed gates and stands, and a walking estimate to your gate in distance and minutes. One tap hands over to Apple Maps. It is an estimate, not indoor turn-by-turn. LIVE RADAR • Live aircraft on a calm map, worldwide. • Tap a plane: a rendered aircraft in the airline's own colors where we have them, real photos credited to the photographer, the route, and schedule and gate. • Aircraft in view: every aircraft on screen as a list, with a page for each type. • Overhead: what is passing above you right now. • Live precipitation radar over the map. PRIVACY No ads. No account. No tracking. Your location centers the map and measures the walk to your gate. Your exact position never leaves your device. SUBSCRIPTION AirwayControl requires a subscription. One auto-renewable subscription unlocks the whole app. New subscribers get a 7-day free trial; after that it renews monthly at the price shown in the App Store for your country. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when the free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically every month unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in Settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://airwaycontrol.intelsystems.ai/privacy HONEST LIMITS Aircraft positions work worldwide; refresh rate depends on receiver coverage. Gate, belt, check-in desk and security wait are deepest at Nordic airports; elsewhere you get boards, gate and terminal where published, and the live map. Rights information is information, not legal advice. Live data needs a connection. CREDITS Full credits for data, maps and photos: airwaycontrol.intelsystems.ai/credits

When do we land, and what is that down there? FlyETA answers both from your phone's own GPS, in airplane mode, on a 3D globe of the whole planet that is already inside the app. Look out at a river, find it on the globe and read its name. Check your arrival time and settle back. It needs no cabin Wi-Fi and works with no download at all. WHAT IS DOWN THERE - Towns, lakes, rivers, peaks and borders named on the 3D globe as you fly over them, and the countries under your track - More than 470,000 named places in the map that comes with the app: cities, mountain peaks, lakes, ranges and seas - Terrain for the whole planet from Copernicus elevation data and ESA WorldCover land cover. Sharper terrain for your route downloads when you set up a flight with a connection: always, on Wi-Fi only or never, as you choose in Settings. WHEN YOU LAND - Arrival time, time to go and distance to go - On routes with recent flights, the forecast follows the past flight most like yours. FlyETA collects these flights every day from open ADS-B data, for more than 20,000 routes, and loads your route's when you set up the flight with a connection. - Without them it uses a general flight model, which cannot see wind or holding - Flight phase: on the ground, climb, cruise, descent - The phase, arrival time and time to go on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island THE WHOLE PLANET IN 3D - Chase the airplane, orbit it, or pinch in to the cockpit and turn to the wing, with its engines turning and its lights flashing - Contrails at cruise height, the atmosphere on the horizon, and the stars and the Milky Way when you zoom out into space - Your past flights glow on the home globe and fly again as it turns - At most 30 frames a second, fewer when the phone runs warm and none while the globe is still, to save battery FOR THE CURIOUS - Altitude above mean sea level, ground speed, vertical speed and track - Cabin pressure altitude and a turbulence reading - GPS tools: heights above sea level and the ellipsoid, every accuracy figure, and a map with the accuracy ring - Metric, imperial or aviation units, globe layers for cities, countries, borders, rivers, peaks and airports, and 10 languages KEEP EVERY FLIGHT - Start following and FlyETA records the flight, with the screen locked too - If the app is closed in the air, the recording resumes when you open it again - Replay any flight at 1x, 10x, 60x or 300x - A passport with a stamp for each airport, a page for each country, and badges - Add a flight you took but did not record. It counts in the passport and replays as a labelled simulation. - Every recording is a readable JSON file in the Files app TRY IT BEFORE YOU FLY Pick any two of more than 4,000 airports and tap Simulate to watch the flight on the globe. Its heights and speeds are modelled, and the flight is labelled Simulated. Values only a phone in the air can measure show "--". HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT CAN SEE Position, height and speed come from your phone's own sensors, not from the aircraft. Reception varies with your phone, the aircraft and your seat; a window seat gives the phone a better view of the sky. FlyETA follows the flight you are on: it shows no gates, delays or other aircraft. Where a value is unknown, it shows "--" instead of a guess. FREE, AND YOURS Every feature is free: no in-app purchases, no subscription, no ads, no account. FlyETA never sends your position and uploads no flight. With a connection it sends the route's two airport codes, the names of the terrain squares the route crosses and the app and iOS version to tower.flyeta.app, and a flight number you type to api.adsbdb.com. In airplane mode it sends nothing. REQUIREMENTS iPhone 15 or newer, or an iPad with an A13 chip or newer, on iOS 26 or iPadOS 26 or newer. Live following needs GPS: an iPhone or iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular. A Wi-Fi-only iPad can simulate and replay flights. FlyETA is a personal project by Nick Bubelich, who wanted these two answers on every flight he took.
