Using your location, Drone Assist supplements your normal due-diligence activities by displaying no-fly zones and ground hazards for a growing number of countries around the world, completely free of charge.
Simple and easy to use, the Drone Assist App has been designed and built with the Pilot in mind, providing you with the trusted insights you would expect from a company paving the way for Drone integration into regulated and unregulated airspace.
Our range of flight planning tools, offered both independently and as part of our wider work with ANSPs and National Aviation Authorities, make operating a drone safely as easy as possible. We encourage drone users to download the Drone Assist app to understand airspace regulations and register flights. Happy (safe) flying!
Drone Assist is the #1 drone safety app from Altitude Angel in the UK. It provides an interactive map of the sky and is used by general aviation, balloon pilots, other airspace users, and of course, drone pilots! Our map data is currently most effective in the UK, but will work in other GEOs and we are continually adding new country-specific map data. It allows you to see areas to avoid or in which extreme caution should be exercised, as well as ground hazards that may pose safety, security, or privacy risks when flying your drone.
The Drone Assist app has been built natively for optimised performance on both iOS and iPadOS.

What’s New
Version 2.3.130274
Introducing the Declare an Emergency feature!
Now, you can alert authorities, airspace managers, or nearby drone operators by selecting ‘Declare an Emergency’ in the app during an active flight. Choose from:
- Fly Away
- Immediate Return to Base
- Emergency Hold/Loiter
- Emergency Land
If your situation changes, update it easily. In authorised zones using our Approval Services, zone managers are alerted.
We’ve also redesigned our rate cards, making it easier to understand any authorised zones. Update now to manage emergencies swiftly and keep the skies safe!

Ratings and Reviews
It’s okay
Seems to be a good app. The only issue I have is it appears to be zoomed in a small bit and cuts off the map and some of the buttons. Looks like it wants to be in landscape but I can’t find a setting to correct that so I guess some is just cut off. This would be a 4 star app if that was corrected and 5 stars if you did not need an account just to look at the app. Also need to correct some terms like “device ID” or “operator ID” and “pilot ID”. Allow us to mark recreational or part 107, maybe even a tic box per flight if you do both 107 and rec flights.
The issue I have found is when you have bigger text or zoomed view the app can’t adjust so it just cuts off icons or keeps them off screen.
Developer Response ,
Hello ILMEDIC,
Thank you for your detailed feedback. It really is apricated and will only help us improve Drone Assist. The issue you are seeing with the layout, may be related to the accessibility settings on your phone directly which you can change. We will also look to address this our side.
You do not need an account to look at the airspace data, but of course if people want to use more advanced features like flight planning tools we do require an account.
Again, we appreciate your feedback and will look to see where we can make improvements for the wider drone community.
Fly Safe!
Pilot
Can’t start a new mission.
App says you must be a pilot. Please add one.
I can’t find anywhere in the App where I can do that. Please help.
Developer Response ,
Hi Bird Rocker,
Sorry to hear you have experienced this. To add a pilot, please navigate to the "You" section on the bottom bar, select "Profile" and you will find "Register as a Pilot" there.
Thank you for your feedback. We have now produced a better journey for this for this to make this easier for future users. That will be deployed with our next release in the coming weeks. We hope this helps you and you can start to enjoy the App.
Safe Flying!
Can’t use without an account. No thanks.
Can’t even get into the app without creating an account. Not doing that.
