I work for a major airline and have been using this app for almost 5 years. Have the Pro version. I been off work the past year, but going back at the end of the month and opened the app to input my work schedule, but I’m finding that the responsiveness of the app SUPER slow. I have a iPhone 11 Pro Max, so doubt it’s a phone issue. Help me get back up to flying speed! Update: 8/27 Support reached out to me and I submitted a video of the performance of the app.Update: 8/30. Support reached out to me again after I shared a screen shot/video of what was going on. They pointed out that the version I had (Pro) version is no longer supported and advised me to download the newest version. A little disappointed that I lost ALL of my prior flight information and have not heard back if there is a way to import the data from the Pro version, but LOVE the app. There could be a few tweaks, which I will recommend later.

It mentions a free version but . . . Good luck

I want this only for my 90 year old deaf mother who loves seeing planes. Wanted to print out the arrival schedule so she would know when planes were arriving so she can watch out the window. But I digress, unless use their click bate which requires a subscription at $50/ year or click 3 day trial, the app doesn’t work. So really there is NO FREE version. I love understand the desire to make $ off your work, but don’t then list it as having a free version when there isn’t. Wasted my time. It’s not the $, it’s that the pressure to subscribe right off the bat with a 2 minute time limit to select and get 50% off before I’ve even seen it. I don’t gamble so I’m not taking the 50/50 chance that spending $25 would give me. I’d rather wait until I’ve evaluated it and pay full price. Forcing me to buy it first before I try it. Ludicrous. Yes I know I can cancel because I have 3 days which means 2 days because there’s an explicit warning that cancellation has to be recorded more than 24 hours before renewal and Apple has a habit of charging a day early - I think they must use somewhere in the pacific just across the international dateline as they often charge 2 days before. I digress again, so you increase your odds of getting the $ because a majority will not remember to cancel or will not had the chance to fully check it out. That’s not illegal conduct just conduct the represents a less than honorable company. I don’t do business with dishonorable people or companies. There are others out there. Look for them.

Hard to use, missing and incorrect info

EDIT: I just learned that the connecting leg of my flight that was marked on this app as delayed is in fact on time. When it comes to travel, it’s actually better to have no info at all rather than the wrong info. For this reason, I’m removing the extra star I gave the app for finding the flights (which should kind of be a given for a flight-tracking app anyway).———Tried giving this app another try after it failed to find my flight the last time I tried it. I gave it a star for finding both the initial and connecting flights this time. Among the issues with the app are a truly non-intuitive interface that requires digging around to find critical options and info while fairly useless info (eg carrier corporate profiles) are accessed by clicking where you’d expect to find the important info. There also doesn’t appear to be any way to see how long your flight is delayed, only the fact that it is delayed, so you don’t know whether you need to make alternative arrangements either for air or ground transportation. Ultimately I only had this installed for 10 minutes; if I can’t get critical flight info in that amount of time (either because it’s not available in the app or because locating it in the app takes so long due to the interface), then the app isn’t serving its intended purpose.

Best Flight Tracker on the Market

No other flight tracker app comes close to Flight Tracker. You can save and view any flight you want to the ‘My Flights’ tab, organize your flights according to trips you’re going to take in the ‘Trips’ tab, see interactive maps of any flight you choose, get all the information you need about any airport in the world (delays, terminal maps, etc.), get airplane info and seat maps for the flights you’re tracking or have saved, and so much more. You can also customize notifications to remind you of departures and arrivals. I haven’t even scraped the surface yet but I don’t know how many people are going to read a novel in the AppStore reviews. I will say that the app little tricky to navigate at first but that’s only because it has so many features. You just have to take a little bit of time to sit down and figure out everything the app has to offer!
