Blimp Watch is the essential tracking companion for airship enthusiasts. Whether you're an aviation photographer hunting the perfect shot, a curious local wondering "Is that thing headed my way?" or simply someone who smiles every time you spot the blimp overhead — Blimp Watch keeps you connected to the aircraft you care about.
What Blimp Watch does:
• Live Map Tracking — Watch aircraft move in real time on an interactive map with detailed flight trails. See the current flight path or replay the last 24 hours of movement.
• Smart Push Alerts — Get notified the moment a watched aircraft takes off, lands, enters your area, or leaves your range. No more guessing or refreshing — the app does the watching for you.
• Real-Time Flight Data — Altitude, ground speed, heading, and distance from your location, updated automatically. When something is airborne, Blimp Watch polls every 30 seconds so you always have the latest position.
• Multi-Aircraft Support — Track more than one aircraft at a time. Blimp Watch monitors every watched tail number and lets you see which ones are airborne, grounded, in your alert radius, or out of range.
• Adaptive Polling — The app intelligently speeds up updates when aircraft are airborne and slows down when they're grounded, saving battery while keeping you informed.
• Beautiful on Every Screen — Designed for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV with adaptive layouts that look great on a phone in your pocket or a 4K television on your wall.
• Privacy-First Location — Your location is only used to calculate distance and trigger nearby alerts. You remain in full control of location permissions.
• Keep-Awake Mode — Optionally keep your screen on during an active flight so you never lose sight of the action.
Blimp Watch is built by people who love aviation, for people who love aviation. No ads. No clutter. Just clean, reliable tracking of the aircraft that capture our imaginations.
