1. 5/5Very Useful Mobile Tracking (See below for suggestions)

   I will say I have been using this App for 3+ years, and I have recently just gotten a subscription. I do have suggestions for improvement starting with model variety, in specific for General Aviation and Helicopters. I do believe the model variety is very well put together for the 3D view, especially because of the most recent update implementing Infinite Flight Models(Well Done!). I came up with an idea that for helicopters, All of the helicopters in 3-D view are EC-135s, though I’ve observed on particular models like the Bell 407(B407), EC-130(EC30), Bell 412, EC-145(EC45) have their models on display on their previews, which I would like to see these models being used for their own 3-D view. There could also be more additions to expand the model pool like MD500(H500) and others. Another idea in mind, is the opportunity to allow the Aviation community to make liveries for specific aircraft, which must be approved by both the owner and the development team. This way, the model variety can stand out much further especially for popular tracked aircraft like YouTubers and any individual aircraft. (Examples; Bell 407(Med-Trans), JA789A ANA 777(BB-8 Livery), Custom private owned 3D Cessna 172)

2. 3/5Great App; One Quibble

   I am a flight attendant and generally love this app for both work & leisure. I have one small quibble, and I recognize there’s a good chance it might be something totally outside the developer’s control: when I try to use it on an airplane, the map is just a blank beige grid for a very, very long time. So I can track the flight I’m on, but for a very long time I have almost no clue where the plane actually is, because the map takes forever to load. Again, I’m not an IT person so I fully recognize this is probably a limitation of the Wifi capabilities of the planes I am on, and thus beyond the scope of the app developer’s abilities to fix. Nonetheless, being able to see where the plane is on a map is a crucial aspect of this app’s appeal- and it usually works terrifically anywhere on the ground. But on the plane in the air, this capability is next to non-existent because of long it takes the map to load. I used to have an old phone and thought my old phone might be the reason for this. I’ve just bought the newest iPhone, however, and discovered the same problem still exists.

3. 2/5Irresponsible & Mediocre

   I have had this app for a few years now. When it first came out, it was the best of the three top flight tracker apps. It was so because the app combined flight GPS beacon-equipped aircraft tracking as well as radar tracking for those aircraft that was either not equipped with these beacons or those which the pilot chose not to activate their beacon or whom turned off their unique ID so they could fly around without anyone knowing who they are. That is, after all, how the app got its name. Over the last year there have been more and more aircraft flying nearby that do not show up on this app. About the only thing that does anymore is commercial airliners and many, but not all, private single engine prop planes. Bottom line, this app has devolved into a waste of money. Why irresponsible? It is clear that the app owner has decided to shift away from a priority of providing a service to the subscriber for a fee to a business model that is little more than a means of selling the subscriber out to anyone who will pay for their app to be used for data mining, largely Google & Facebook. I do not appreciate being used and my privacy being grossly invaded. It is sickening to see app owners lower themselves to crawl in the Google and facebook gutter of slime. I give it two stars only because it does track some aircraft and has some nice features coupled with that. It’s just too bad that they went to the dark side.

4. 1/5Ads EVERYWHERE…

   This app USED to be good. It was amazing seeing planes just above me and now it’s a flight tracker that acts like a mobile game for five year olds. Just clicked on the app 10 seconds later you get an ad. Click on a plane there is a pop up ad. And no features! I thought before it was fine, but there’s absolutely nothing now and I’m not paying for a flight tracker like that’s absolutely ridiculous unless you are very passionate about that no one‘s buying it I am aware of your high development team, but that’s no reason to not make your users happy. I get it you need money, but don’t make it a painstakingly horrible experience and plotting 30 ads within five minutes maybe instead go back to what you used to do. It was better before you had 80 developers. Listen to your community. I don’t care what your reason is at least acknowledge this review. Response to developers. Listen I’ve been locked out of features I used to get and some of us aren’t in a great position and you expect us to use money to on a flight radar? Some of us have hobbies, you know. Third-party applications is just an excuse. Might as well make it a pay to enter instead of charging monthly subscriptions.

5. 5/5Best app!

   If your a type of person that enjoys flights and planes, or you know someone who would, this would be the best app to have. It’s completely accurate, I’ve tested out myself with watching planes fly over my house while looking at the app. it’s very easy, and cool. Probably the coolest app I have on my phone, even tracking my own flight and my arrival is still cool to me. It can go anywhere, and track helicopters, airport ground vehicles, and even next flights for each airport. It shows were an air vehicle has been and can show were they will land. (Unless it’s an owned plane that doesn’t have a corse) you could even see military planes fly, I’ve seen many such as the C-130 gun ship, C-17, C-5, and more. I constantly look at the app, excited to see what types of new planes I will learn about and see. As a person going into aviation I love this app too much and hope that this review will help future people who are curious of the technology of flying.
