FlightDial turns your wrist into a radar screen. Real aircraft, live from community ADS-B data, drawn on an analog dial at their true bearing and distance from you. The dial turns with your compass, so a plane at 10 o’clock on screen is at 10 o’clock in the sky. One crossing the centre is about to pass overhead, and FlightDial taps you when it will. • Live traffic on a clean analog dial, over a terrain map • Turn the Digital Crown to zoom from 2 to 50 km • Tap a plane for its registration, type, altitude, speed, distance and bearing • A complication showing how many aircraft are near you • A haptic when something is about to pass overhead • Watch Heathrow’s traffic any time, free FlightDial World unlocks any sky on earth: search a city or airport and keep it as its own dial. Live traffic: ADSB.lol community data (ODbL).
