CurbSync tells you exactly when to leave for the airport — whether you're catching the flight or picking someone up.
Pick a flight. Tell us how you're using it. CurbSync watches the airline data, factors in live traffic from your current location, and notifies you the moment it's time to head out.
CATCHING A FLIGHT
• Counts back from your scheduled departure, factoring in your preferred airport-arrival buffer (default 2 hours domestic / 3 hours international, fully adjustable)
• Pushes a notification if your flight delays by 30+ minutes, so you can leave later with confidence
• Switches to a red GO NOW alert if your leave-by time slips past — no more guessing how late is too late
PICKING SOMEONE UP
• Waits for the flight to actually land, then adds deplaning time before starting your countdown
• Pro: factors in baggage claim (domestic) or baggage + customs (international)
• Pro: automatically routes you to the right terminal as soon as it's announced
• Pro: one-tap Share ETA so the passenger knows when you'll be at the curb
DESIGNED TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY
• Uses your device's current location by default — no fiddling with addresses
• Drive times calculated entirely on-device via Apple Maps
• Sign in with Apple
• Real-time flight data via FlightAware
FREE vs PRO
Free — track one flight at a time with manual refresh (20 lookups/day)
Pro — unlimited refresh, automatic and background polling, push notifications, Live Activity + Dynamic Island countdown, baggage-claim timing, terminal-aware pickup, departure-delay alerts, and Share ETA
CurbSync works at any commercial airport worldwide.

What's New — 2.1.0
LIVE FLIGHT TRACKING
• New "Flying near Denver, CO" status updates as your flight moves — visible on the tracker and on the Lock Screen / Dynamic Island Live Activity. No extra battery cost; the position is
interpolated locally.
• New flight progress bar on the Live Activity: a route line from origin to destination with a plane glyph showing where your flight is right now.
MORE ACCURATE DRIVE TIMES
• The in-app ETA now uses your phone's exact GPS coordinate and the same destination point Apple Maps does, so the time you see matches the time you get when you tap Directions.
• Airport terminals now resolve correctly via Apple's POI database (e.g. "LAX Terminal 6" no longer routes to a generic city address).
LIVE ACTIVITY POLISH
• Countdown ticks smoothly every second in the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, even when you're in another app.
• Dynamic Island layout reworked so the flight number and route info stay clear of the rounded edges.
NEW PRO FEATURES
• Baggage carousel — see which carousel bags will come out at as soon as the airline reports it (Pickup mode).
• Origin gate and terminal in Departure mode so you know exactly where to head.
• Aircraft type displayed under the flight number ("Boeing 737-800", "Airbus A320neo", etc.).
• Flight time and distance shown alongside your countdown ("5h 12m · 1,847 mi").
• FlightAware prediction hints when their ML model expects a different arrival time than the airline.
• Inbound flight banner: before you depart, see the status of the previous leg of the same aircraft so you get the earliest possible heads-up on propagated delays.
FIXES
• Share ETA no longer prompts you to upgrade when you're already on Pro.
• Renamed the live geo status from "Flying over" to "Flying near" since the position is approximate.
