Planes Live - Flight Tracker Positive Reviews
Pretty CoolI’ve always enjoyed watching planes and flying them myself whether it be day or night. I always wonder where they’re going, what plane I am seeing, its altitude, speed, destination, etc. With this app, you can view all those things. You can track the plane to see its flight path to see if you will see it fly passed you or not. On the other hand, I live VERY close to railroad tracks and freight trains pass every 10 minutes or so. I wonder the same details about them and I’d love to have an app the same as Planes Live but for trains..TallFishermanKenVersion: 1.9
It works if you have nothing elseWell I really hate it when app developers screw over their long time users. I have as fine with the free version only showing 3 departure and landing times for airports with scheduled service. And I was ok with the fact that it didn’t typically show GA. But now that there is no option to use the free versions and you have to pay, bye bye app. You have been deleted. I would have been ok with an ad at the beginning when opening but now this. And if there was a one time fee of like $10, I would buy it. But this crap of monthly subscription, I’ll just stick with seeing traffic on ForeFlight. I hate to see developers screw over existing users. Maybe even give us a discount for a year, just something.
**edit after update**
It seems the x button is now back to enter the free mode..KeelmiesterVersion: 1.49.2
Cool App, but by subscription? No thanks!Have had this app and enjoyed it for quite some time. I liked showing people how you can choose any plane and get so much detail on it. It was mind boggling for anyone who saw how many planes are in the air at any time and how you can track each one in real time.
Then I today I launched it so I could identify a plane flying overhead and discovered it was now a subscription only app!
Yes, this app does an amazing feat though it really collects available info from control towers. But to charge a subscription for it? I think that only the die hard aviation geeks would fork over $5 a week.
I subscribe to a suite of apps that are second to none because they offer apps that provide world class tools for editing photos, videos, music, text, web design and a whole lot more. Adobe offers subscription for individual apps or a whole collection of them. They charge for sophisticated and professional tools.
You’re not Adobe!
When you start producing apps that pilot use as well as a host of apps for other aviation uses, then you will have a right to charge a subscription based on value.
Until then, I’m out..Bari T.Version: 1.44.0
Good app but….This app is wonderful and has so much easy features and accurate but after a while I starts to freeze and can’t types and other stuff I don’t know if it’s a bug or just my phone but it’s kinda anoying but overall it’s a worth it app and simple directions how to use it great job making this app it perfectly made but I don’t know about the bug so yea..Hungrypancake9383Version: 3.9.2
Such potentialI drive for Lyft and decided to base my decisions on whether to go and wait at the airport on the Arrivals section for this app. It would say that three flights were coming into TUS by the end of the hour, on time, but no flights would come. However using the map, I was able to click on all the planes in the state, and could see that none were on there way to Tucson, except a cargo plane, and the ability to do that was awesome! That gave me the info I needed to leave and stop wasting my time waiting on something that wasn’t coming..John HadwinVersion: 1.13
AmazingThis app is so amazing and accurate. I absolutely love planes and being able to hear a plane above you and check you phone and see the exact flight is so amazing to me. You get to see every detail about the plane. It is so worth the money if you love aviation. Amazing App. Only think I could suggest changing is showing different size planes on the maps for commercial and private planes! But besides that it is so amazing and I love it..23ScollinsVersion: 1.41
MAHALOSANDMANFun to keep track of family traveling all over, plus, I enjoy sitting in our backyard and identifying various flights going over our city. Sometimes when I one of our granddaughter is with us, we will go out, look up imagine the number of passengers on a flight and crest a mystery about why they are in route to a particular destination. It is amazing what a whopper a 12 year old can make up..MAHALO05SandmanVersion: 1.21
Much better with inexpensive subscription!The “free” version is fully functional but very annoying ads make it quite obnoxious to use.
I’m very frugal and hate to pay, but Planes Live is worth the measly $7 annual fee.
All commercial aircraft use ADS-B and are available to track. General Aviation (private planes) must use it if they wish to participate with air traffic control.
We use the app every time one of us is in the air..SonomaHMVersion: 1.9
Track Planes for Free? Sure!For a free app it does the job. Would I spend $ to track planes? Probably not, but when I want to i.d. what kind of aircraft is flying over head it just the thing. When I need to find out when my wife’s flight is getting in to Logan and I can actually see it over Providence it’s a good thing. When I can see cargo flights represented as Santa’s sleigh in Alaska to show the kids on Christmas Eve... now that’s cool!.Durbeck von WymanVersion: 1.9
CaptainI don’t actually use it, but my wife uses it frequently. We live near an airport and we deal with flights coming right over our home, and this pisses her off. It also enables her to send the FAA her complaint about low flying jets, who they belong to, and the type of aircraft. She is very well versed in how to use the App. So, on behalf of my wife, I love it and thank you..UAPFANVersion: 2.10.0
Not accurateI live directly in the flight path of Philly International. Planes are almost always flying directly over my house. When sitting out back in the summer, we always wondered where the planes were going or coming from. I saw this app and had to have it. I like it a lot, but it’s often wrong. Sometimes planes fly directly over head, and when I pull up the app, there is no plane near my house. This happens a lot. Why doesn’t the app show planes flying over my neighborhood? Can this be fixed?.JI///MVersion: 1.13
Very funI enjoy sitting in my yard seeing planes flying over and just wonder what those folk are going to be doing where there going. Checking out different airports and seeing how busy they are. The stats that are updates are accurate judging off seeing planes fly over at relatively the same altitude. Speed of aircraft pretty darn accurate. Enjoyable app, great for the price..Beekeeper BrianVersion: 2.10.0
I’m a NewbieHi, 👋🏼- I just started the airport transportation of clients and I’ve tried a couple of Apps - But this App , Planes Alive is the best!! Easier to follow and really up to date! I think it’s reporting is excellent. My client’s text came in about 90 Seconds after Planes Alive messaged me that the plane had just landed. Reporting any delays is current and all updates are greatly appreciated! Thank You ✈️.RedhilgaVersion: 2.7.0
Update not goodI am 20 miles north of DFW and check on overhead flights often. The new upgrade is bad and many times the flight shown overhead is already on the ground at DFW when I click on it. I liked the older version much better. The new deal of broken lines fore and aft of flight with plane shown miles way from actual location is a downgrade from earlier version..Pop the grampVersion: 2.10.0
Heath WiseAmazing simply Amazing…you know when you’re a little kid and you hear a jet flyover, you look up, and wonder, where are you bound for… Well all those childhood dreams can now be reality, with Planes LIVE, you can now look up into the sky, and know exactly When, Where, and What, plane is flying above you, all your childhood dreams finally come true…...HeathwiseVersion: 1.48.0
What a fun app to have!!!Where I live we have very heavy air traffic, given the fact that I live just to the south of the Ogden airport, HAFB, and just north of the SLC International airport.
I really enjoy watching the statistics of the flights flying all around my place. To me, it’s very interesting to actually see the plane in the air above my place while sitting on the patio, and being able to see the planes telemetry live as the plane flys by.
Yes; you would probably need to be a pilot OR nerd (or both) to enjoy this app.
If you have any interest in planes, you’ll find this app to be very entertaining and interesting.
Well, I’m gonna take off…(no pun intended.)
(-;
Enjoy the app!!!
👋🏻.Bmwfreq64Version: 2.2.0
So cool!I think this app is awesome. I didn’t realize how curious I am to know where planes are, all the time. We live in the landing path of a small commercial airport and the app tracks these planes with incredible accuracy. So cool to know where these planes are coming from, as well as the altitude and speed. I purchased the premium app and I love the weather radar as well. I’ve totally geeked out!.Tina747Version: 1.23
Good but missing a key featureThe app is impressive but I noticed that it is missing a key feature that every airline tracking app has…it doesn’t tell you what kind of airplane model it is…??? Why is that missing info for an app that is suppose to give you detailed information. It bugs me because I like to know plane models of the airplanes I’m tracking just out of curiosity. If they can add that feature, I’d give 5 stars..Zeeshan18Version: 1.46.0
Ok but very hard to search flights for a different dayMy husband travels a lot. My kids enjoy watching his plane fly across the sky on this app. However, you cannot search for specific flights in specific dates. For example, I was trying to search and save his flight for a Sunday on Saturday morning, but the only flight it would show me was the same flight for Saturday. There is no way to change the date. Very frustrating..ShelibeliVersion: 1.31.1
Doesn’t work very wellUsed this app 2 years ago. Great. Could follow family members flights. Reload and bought. Huge disappointment. Unresposive. Many trials to get to correct screen. No longer has red plane to follow. Suspect software not kept up with new ios versions. Now wont accept Bad review..KevinlongwoodVersion: 1.48.1
FREAKIN COOLI’ve been an airplane nerd since I was little. I’ve been using the Flight Tracker app for the longest time (still do because of it’s amazing accuracy), but this one is unique because you can literally see any flight from anywhere on the planet at any time and so far it seems to be accurate. I can’t wait to play around with it more!.MdirntwjsnsnVersion: 1.31.1
To the developers:As someone who never flies, I can tell you that this app is awesome. However one problem I had with it is that some pictures show an a330 when the plane is really a 787. This happens a lot, not just to the 787. Also, md11s are not Boeing aircraft. They are McDonnell Douglas aircraft. Other than that, I thought everything was fine. :).AhfuebdbiserVersion: 1.13
Enjoy the app - butAlways appreciate the operation of the app. However, in the last few weeks there are many planes directly over my location
That do not appear in the app.
I understand that military and VFR will not appear but these are high altitude and/or local take offs routes/ landings of commercial flights that don’t show.
Just wondering the problem as otherwise I enjoy the app. Thanks.52coltVersion: 1.23
ComplicatedI do not find it user friendly. I am good with computers, but it seems complicated and not user friendly. However, it is very accurate once you find your flight and good with notifications. It just needs to be more simplified. Once I found the flight I wanted I would only like to track that plane not every flight in the air. Maybe you can do that, but like I said it seems to be too complicated for me..CheramarkaVersion: 1.28
My experienceIt’s a neat app but I just had a plane fly over my house and it wasn’t anywhere on the radar. I only downloaded the app to see where the planes going over my house were coming from and going to. I’d have given it 5 stars if the app had an accurate live map. P.S. I was only using the free version since all I wanted was to know where the planes flying over me came from..BranchTownVersion: 1.49.2
Fantastic appThe best app.ZilvsVersion: 2.7.0
Great App But...This app is fun! I can always hear planes flying overhead and I can see where they are come from when I look on the app but this app crashes to frequently.

Not update flights.Beautiful design, but if one flight it’s delayed it will never appear as “delayed” in the app. All the flights are “on time” which is not accurate.

Developers responded quickly with informationI mistakenly rated this app low as I thought you could only subscribe and not use free version and since I only used occasionally did not want to. There was no opt out button. Developer responded today on the ability to click on X (hidden in Alaska) so I reinstalled the app and this now allows me to use the app again.

Planes Live - Flight Tracker Negative Reviews
Not worth the money!I originally bought this app because I live on the landing pattern for Detroit Metro (DTW). The first year I had the app, it was great! I could sit on my deck and watch (and track) flights coming in and out of DTW. Within the last 3-4 months however the app has gone downhill quickly. Planes will fly over the house and not show up on the tracker, wrong flight numbers, incorrect maps, etc. I have sent numerous emails to customer service regarding my issues and basically I was brushed off. I really can’t justify paying $4.99 a month for an app that doesn’t work properly.
UPDATE: Just received an email wanting me to reach out to the support team for help. Are you serious?!?!? The “support team” has been well aware of these issues for at least 3 months now since I have emailed them on 3 separate occasions. And only now they want to take me seriously (or try to save face) after I left a bad review of their crappy app. Sorry, too late. You have had ample time to correct the issue and basically ignored me. I’ve canceled my subscription and removed the app from my devices. Absolutely horrendous customer service..PurduemanVersion: 1.37.0
Was good but now notI’ve had this app for a quiet a few years, and I’ve had this subscription, and I’ve been very happy with this app because of the way you could track the flights I could go to the map and I could follow the flight of my family members as they went through their trip also would tell me when they were boarding and window everything when the plane when it left, it was laid if it was early now I don’t tell me any of that I can’t even go to the map and find that particular flight I had I had it on the flight and the flight left an hour later and it’s still not showing up on the map is showing the line of the track it’s going, but the flight wasn’t there I didn’t see no updates when they were boarding or nothing so I canceled my subscription was good before they updated it. It looks better. Of the options that I liked about this app. Sad..Darkwing40Version: 2.16.0
Greedy developersI paid for this app 10$ some years ago. Worked good but got sloppy over the last year or so. Now I know why. My purchase is not working anymore. Os14? I checked and found the new App. But now it is way overpriced. Who is using this App?-people that like to identify what is just happening above them. A fun thing. Nobody would pay for that reason more than the one time 10$. For exact flight information for travel planning, you have tons of free and better apps.
Then all so called free trials should never go automatically to a subscription. That’s in my opinion fraudulent. You accept a free thing. Never do you approve of to a payment plan. To call it a „free“ trial is misleading and should be illegal.
Sad, I liked this App. To change it during a pandemic where people don’t have the usual financial abilities is also not to smart.
Greed is never ending positive..PapispunkVersion: 1.39.0
Not worth the timeI cannot properly evaluate this apps functionality in free mode, because every 3rd touch of the screen pops up very annoying loud game ads. More than one; at least two every time. Yes, I know I can select free trial of full features to get rid of them. But I do not want to go through that hassle, including not forgetting to unsubscribe in 3 days if I don't want it.
The developer's high pressure business model is flawed and reflects a lack of understanding of his customer. He would get more subscriptions if he allowed the person to evaluate the app in peace without signing up for the free trial. Then after a few days, begin the harassment, if you must. But as it is, it is too disturbing to take the time to evaluate. I write this knowing he is reading these.
Too bad. It looked like it might have been a good about to have. But it is not worth the hassle..FenFamWillVersion: 1.13
BewareI wanted to see what this was app was like. It showed free. Then going into after install it showed I could have a three day trial. Ok. No problem. Then after clicking ok it brought me to a screen the price options for 3 levels of subscription. I clicked x because it didn’t pertain to me. However it then showed on the next screen that I had the premium (highest) level purchased to be charged after the three days of trial. I freaked and got in the Apple chat and was walking through subscription cancellation. I then deleted the app. I will confirm in three days to make sure I am not going to get call. I for sure clicked x. It was a big x but obviously a ruse as clicking it signed you up for the highest amount. Not right. I don’t know why people do business this way. I have no desire to trust them with my money in any way. So beware..Mamaof2cutiesVersion: 1.12
Buggy notificationsSometimes they show up, sometimes they don’t. That was the sole purpose for me getting this up and signing up for paid plan. I want to make sure that I don’t miss updates when a plan lands or is delayed. And this app can’t be trusted unfortunately. And yes, I’m talking about inconsistency of notifications delivered for a saved flight. Needless to say, I have to cancel my subscription. As others mentioned, contacting support is impossible as you simply get auto reply along the lines of “we don’t answer to these emails” This is ridiculous!
When you’re trying to share flight tracking info with someone, instead of a link to the flight tracking details page it’s a link to their website. Super helpful!?!?
Also, a lot of times you simply unable to save a flight because the app can’t locate a scheduled flight for a route for a future date, even a couple of days out sometimes. But I bought a ticket, so the flight is happening!
Some good ideas, implementation-not so much..PiratmcVersion: 3.10.9
“Functionality limitations” a warningThis free app should encourage me to buy the full version. It does not. But the constant answer always posted on negative reviews by the developer is functionality limitations are compensated by the app being free. In other words - you can take it , or leave it. That is not a very inviting response to buy the full version. I would like to see how the app might work if I bought it. I guess this free app is a preview of how I might also dislike the full version, so why buy it ? The constant pop ups that put me into questionable websites really don’t reflect well on the developers. I suppose the full version is loaded with many things I don’t want on my phone..SealleyVersion: 1.10
After using this app for years I am uninstalling itFaultless, simple, accurate would be my description for this app not too many months ago. Today the app was inoperable. I needed to track a flight ATL-ORD-CPH. The attempt to input devoured 10 minutes. The app could not find the flight or anything else. Delight became disappointment. These folks can do a great deal better than what I got today. I hate putting this into the public. But how do you contact an app maker directly? I went to the airline site through Google and had my answer when I touched enter. Then I was asked to pay $6.88 to rid myself of ads. Not their greatest moment in sales. Get back to your former faultlessness, simplicity and accuracy folks. It hurts to experience the failure of a great product..Honore du GauloisVersion: 1.9
Deceptive MarketingI love plane trackers. I was fooled by an advertisement for this app that Depicted the view of the plane as the most realistic I’ve seen. It showed zooming in on planes and it looked almost as good as a version of flight simulator showing the planes in real time.
I downloaded the app and signed up for the trial. It’s said after 3 day trial I would be charged, And that if I wanted to cancel I could just do so in the settings area.
I found the plane tracker once I had access to be no better than any other free version that I already have. There is no place within the settings menu to discontinue the trail before being charged. I’ll probably have to block the charge via my credit card company. What a hassle and what a scam..Ddont ttryVersion: 1.13
Annoying adsThe app itself seems good and I’m able to access free features. However, the amount and length of ads is excessive. If I want to save a flight, I have to watch a 30-second add. If I want to save another flight, I have to watch another add, except there’s no times and no “x” that shows on the screen to finally get rid of the ad when the time is up. To top it all off, the app is constantly asking me to purchase the membership which is extremely expensive, especially when other apps do the same thing for free and don’t have so many ads and so much pestering..Ayooo87Version: 2.17.4
No real record- glitchy - no info on pro versionI want to like this app so bad, it has so much potential. I followed two separate flights on the PRO version (paid) and more than 5 hours into the 10 hour flight all it shows is that the flights turn around and go back?? You can’t track the flight in real time. No other info was available- altitude, speed, all stuff that had the option to be available just had blank dotted lines. Complete waste of money. I wish I could share a screenshot of the NON-INFORMATION and lack of tracking. Deleting..Steph DeRosaVersion: 3.10.9
Used to be great, not anymore.When I first got this app, I was amazed by its capabilities. It was completely free, and you had everything. Now, you get this dulled out app that’s just flight numbers and where they see flying. It doesn’t even tell you the type of plane! Now I could buy the paid version if the app for $6.99, but I’d still have to pay for the subscription to get all the features this app used to have. Please, I beg you, at least bring back some of the features that used to be in this app. I’m fine if there’s a premium version, but taking away features from people who already had them? That’s just wrong on so many levels..BrianGuyGo!Version: 1.22
Waste of Time and MoneyLiterally downloaded this app to track ONE flight. When I opened it for the first time, I could click the 3 free day trial option or the $9.99 per year subscription option. I clicked “free trial” and was charged $10. I can’t figure out how to undo it without sending someone an email, which I will definitely be doing, since the app is also terrible. Not intuitive at all. Tried to search by flight number, then by name of airport (midway), but had to just type “Chicago” to bring up the airports. Then when I went to the arrivals page for the proper airport, the specific flight I’m looking for didn’t even show up. I’m so annoyed..Nelsonfan101Version: 1.12
GrrrreeeeedyI’m so unhappy with this app. You used to allow at least some minimal use of this app for free and then offered a subscription with more features. The minimal features were fine for me. And I was fine with watching a few ads. But that was just not good enough for you. Soon as I opened the latest updated app there is no free option. We are FORCED to subscribe (or take the free trial for a while which will jump to paid [especially if we forget to cancel]). Shame on you for getting greedy. I’m sure that will really limit your users. Freebie with apps will probs get u more money that subscribers. :(‘.EvienneKVersion: 3.10.3
False informationI was trying to track one of my family members flights to see when they would get there and it was going good at first till it showed me that THE PLANE WENT BACKWARDS. I was confused because there was no information or email that told me that the flight was going back. So I decided to go download a BETTER app that told me the their flight was on track and not back at where it started. Based on the other reviews I have seen Im sure the company did this for money because everyone I try to open the app it showed me an add. 1/5 stars This app will never be on my phone.

Just couldn’t get it to work.I just did not have a good experience with this app trying to track my hubbys flights. I typed in his flights as in date, time, airline, flight number. It would alert me every time that regularly scheduled flight took off and landed. But his flight would not show up, or if it was there the track feature...which worked on the other flights....did not work. I spent three frustrating days trying to figure this app out and never got it to work correctly..this app doesn't work. Sorry developer....3gbuohbihbkckjbkVersion: 1.19
From an ambassador to a warnerI drive for Uber and this free version was very handy to track airport trafficking but the new update doesn’t allow users to see all arrivals and when you tap on all trips it takes you to the paid version to pay for it I can say I lost my interest now in using this app and you will lose viewers who are seeing you commercials and getting you a side payment the developer has changed his mind to be greedy like others after he caught us from the bulls finally this is going to the trash.
hope this would help others who are going to download the free Planes Live.Sultan MGVersion: 1.12
Crashes Every 3 Mins.When you start the app, it asks you to upgrade. If you click no, it goes away and planes start to appear. 1 minute later, some crap comes up trying to sell you something. This happens every minute for three minutes. At 3:00, you get the minute ad, but this time when you click "NO", the program crashes. Obviously, they HATE taking "NO" for an answer.
The planes don't get a chance to populate the screen before "SURPRISE!!!" It's ad time again!
Sad, because it has a lot more info than Flight Aware... when it loads..FyrepupVersion: 1.9
Don’t get suckered into this appYes, it may be cool, but you are super limited to what you can do, and in order to get the full features, you have to pay 40 dollars a year. Little do y’all know is that FlightRadar24 is better quality, is more well known, and is cheaper. For free, you get all features you get with planes live plus all the features for “Premium”. For 10 dollars a year, you get all these other cool features like what planes are on the ground and all this other cool stuff. And their Gold Platinum is even cheaper than planes live at 35 dollars. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS APP, GET FLIGHTRADAR24 INSTEAD!! INFACT, FLIGHTRADAR24 DOESNT HAVE ADDS!!!.Adam meismerVersion: 1.38.0
Annoying adsI think this summarized how I feel about this app. I hate annoying ads and I also think apps should be free because they rip you off. The developers charge you for the app AND charge you for in app purchases then take your and stop updating the app or bail out leaving you to hang, losing any money you paid and can’t use. This happen to me and many others with the Fuzel Collage app. Then won’t respond to any of our emails. Most of them are foreigners and don’t care. Fuzel is a company in another country. It also happens in my own country. The United States..MnewcoVersion: 1.15
TimeThe times on these apps are all screwed up. For some reason everything is showing five hours ahead. If the plane is landing at 6:00 PM the app is showing it is landing at 11:00 PM. The same goes for arriving flights, if a flight is landing at 3 PM the app is showing it will land at 8 PM. So if there is a plane in the air it will show the plane on the map but it will not give the speed’s or altitude because it thinks the plane still at the airport. This makes this app completely useless!!! This has been going on for the last two months. This used to be a fun app but not anymore..Useless 7755337Version: 1.9
Loved it until it was “subscription only”.I’m not an aviation geek whatsoever ever but it doesn’t take an aviation geek to know that there are more than 4 planes flying over your state at once. I also adore how it nudges you to buy the overpriced subscription every time you load the app & click 3 planes.
Also, Devs. 😑 I’ve seen your response to other people’s reviews; don’t tell me that the free version is similar whatsoever to the subscription version.
After 3 years of having this app installed on my iPhone, I’m out. ✌️.Fat old santaVersion: 1.48.0
Incomplete coverage.I made the mistake of paying for a one year subscription based on the three day trial. Although individual flight information is very comprehensive, this app only tracks about half of the commercial traffic overhead (I’m under the approach corridor to DFW)
The $40 annual fee is now a sunk cost for me, but I’ll be using FlightAware for complete track data. But less than complete flight data.
Hopefully this app corrects its deficiencies before renewal time. Otherwise I’ll be cancelling and deleting..FJA314Version: 1.36.0
Not user friendlyUnless you follow one trip at a time, and enter those trips in order of their happening it is terribly confusing to decipher. Also seems difficult to keep track of travel date in the instance of future trips, especially when the international dateline is involved. Pretty pictures on their advisements, yes, but not a lot else. Sorry... as someone who is on the road more often than not, and the Travel Manager for a large multinational corporation, not the app for me..YYZBearVersion: 1.16
Not Free. Still not freeApp is free only for 3 days, then you have to subscribe. Flight Tracker is a better app for the casual user.
Update: nowhere does it say there’s an option to use a limited version. Only that after 3 days you’ll get charged monthly. Period. And, there’s no option to turn off “push notifications”, like offers of flights etc. So no. Unless you’re willing to put up with charges and ads in your inbox, forget it! Do not download, despite what developer says. They’re lying..TxtabbyVersion: 1.42
Takes to much batteryThis app takes to much battery life so I uninstalled the app right away and downloaded another app.Jayjay0479Version: 1.17
Too many adsThis use to be a really good app. But lately they have been pushing you hard to purchase their pro version for $20/month. So they force you to watch ads for over a minute, that sometimes freezes, so you have to restart the app. Enjoyed it for over 5 years but deleted it today..Kevink5679Version: 3.10.3
No longer worksThis app was not bad, a few too many ads. But it stopped working for me around April 10 2024, and now just shows a blank map of the world. No more planes visible, no more flights available to search. It was fun while it lasted, but even with update, it is just kaput. I would def get the Flight-radar one instead. More accurate and reliable..EightieskidforeverVersion: 3.10.1

Not worth the moneyThey try to allure you with planes flying etc, when you install that’s when they want your money. Not recommended at all!.SinghzaVersion: 2.0.0
SubscriptionI paid for a full year which was not up for another 10 months but did cancel my subscription. During the completion I was sent a message that I could still use my subscription until it expired. But looks like they like to keep the money and block me 🤬.Come gbjVersion: 1.49.3
Fun little app, but far too intrusive with their premium service offer.I think this is a fun app and is likely excellent for Air Aficionados, but for people with casual interest who have no need or interest for the premium version, it’s not worth it. Every third plane you select, their “Please Upgrade” pops up. I opted for the trial, hoping that maybe after discontinuing it the ad would pop up less, but that’s not the case. I understand they want to sell the premium version but the devs really need to find a happy medium, like even making the ad pop up once a day. Until that changes, I will be uninstalling..LEJT95Version: 1.49.3

You have to pay as soon you get inI’ll save you some time, the app wants you to subscribe to their premium version as soon as you open the app, you’ve got 3 days free and then it automatically charges you… The developers seem to not understand that this marketing strategy is not working anymore.LongvalVersion: 1.48.1
Poor serviceLog in won’t take pw. Maybe it’s me but the change pw link never showed up over 20 min of waiting. Great concept but needs refining to reduce wasted time and frustration..Jet ReaderVersion: 1.48.0
Now Sucks! (Was “Example of the perfect app”)This used to be a fun app. I even paid a one-time fee but it’s now GONE! They essentially stole my money!
A one-star rating is too generous.
Now this greedy developer is demanding $7.49/wk or $52.99/yr. At the weekly rate, they actually think their app is more valuable than an Adobe product? This is just another predatory app that takes advantage of people who don’t pay attention to charges! Apple needs to end this unscrupulous practice!
Stay away! There are better, less expensive alternatives..ShawnInVanVersion: 1.48.0

NopeHaven't used it in ages. Don't need it, just a curiousity thing.
Imagine my surprise today when I launch it and discover there are no free/basic versions the way I remembered, just a very brief trial and then pay and pay and pay.
While I understand your desire and indeed the need to monetize your work I delete and bid you a fond adieu.

Read your long response. More waste of everyone's time!
You don't have a free version any more, you just have a short free trial before switching to a subscription. Not the same thing at all. So my review stands.
Charge anything you want, just don't call it free. Very dishonest.

Read your second response.
Bottom line, I can live without this app. So I am not going to go thru the elaborate multiple steps to end up with the 'free app', as opposed to the 'free trial' that most people will find themselves in. Good luck to you..Monk1010Version: 1.44.0
