Flightview - Flight Tracker 4+

Someone has wisdom

I am a former subscriber to a paid app for flight tracking. It is no longer in existence. I am an EA and track flights of multiple airlines simultaneously. I am grateful someone had the brains to keep a multi-carrier tracker app alive with many features from individual carrier apps. It is helpful to know where a plane is coming from when you schedule flights or are watching connecting flights. Spare planes are a tad expensive to have sitting parked at airports just waiting to be used so if your inbound flight is departing from a location impacted by weather that connecting flight you need to catch may not happen. Having an ability to see all the puzzle pieces allows me to change flights ahead of the crowds at airports waiting in customer service lines and keep my bosses moving. Even better, knowing where flights come from allows me to choose flights and routes based on point of departure. A Toronto connection is probably wiser in summer versus winter and so on. This app is a tool I depend on. Like anything else it can always provide new and different information but the creators of this app are updating and improving continuously so I have no complaints. Good app to have if you deal with travel to any degree.

Great app but needs updating (as of summer 2018)

When this first app came out, it did not do a very good job tracking international flights but since then, it’s been great! It’s the best, most up-to-date flight app I’ve tried. It knows when the plane has landed before the airport monitors do! And I love how it will tell you “departed” when the plane leaves the gate, “in air” when it has actually taken off; “landed” when the flight touches down, and “arrived” when the plane is at the gate.
However, about 2 months ago (May 2018) it’s stated having some glitches and wasn’t as accurate as it has been. Flights not updating (said flight was “landed” but not “arrived” for 6 hrs before updated); late on sending notifications (got an alert at 12:59pm that a flight was delayed until 12:56pm, and by then, was already on the plane); can’t always find flight (found 3 out of 4 of my European flights, regardless of the one it couldn’t find being on the airline’s app).
This app hasn’t had an update in 5 months...I’m thinking it’s due!

Best flight tracking app

I’ve used this app since it was released 4 years ago and I love it. I pay for the yearly subscription because it is such a tremendous help in my life and I want them to continue supporting such a great service. There are no other apps that can do everything this one does with such an easy, well-thought out format.

Entering information is a breeze. Create a new trip, search for the flights, save those, and it automatically creates notifications about flight timing. The correct keyboard for letters or numbers only pops up and makes entering anything easy, not all developers consider how helpful having a numbers only keyboard can be when entering info, but this app does. Viewing a single trip or all the trips you have saved is simple and has all the information you need like local time and weather. The app will also show a map of the flight’s progress.

Give this app a try and see why it’s the best for storing your flight information.
