## Review summary

Reviewers praise byAir for solid flight tracking and history, a clean UI, helpful alerts, and responsive support, with particular usefulness for frequent travelers with complex itineraries. However, they uniformly flag data accuracy issues (gates, baggage, arrivals), occasional delays in live notifications, a subscription-based pricing model, and UX problems on tablets/foldables. Overall it's a strong flight-tracking app with ongoing improvements, but users should be aware of potential data gaps and cost.

### Pros

- Effective flight tracking with accessible history data
- Responsive, helpful developers and customer support
- Clean UI/UX with useful widgets and alerts
- Great for frequent travelers, especially with complex itineraries and multi-airline trips

### Cons

- Inaccurate or unreliable basic flight information (gates, baggage, arrivals) and updates
- Live notifications not always timely or reliable for real-time changes
- Pricing model: paid features and subscription required; perceived as expensive
- UX issues on tablets/foldables (onboarding and bottom sheet scrolling)
