## Review summary

Reviews praise the app for tracking flights and ease of use, but point to persistent issues with intrusive ads, unstable paid features, and unreliable flight updates. Core functionality suffers when delays aren’t reflected, searches are limited, or the UI is overwhelmed by ads, leading users to seek alternatives even though the app remains useful for basic flight times.

### Pros

- Useful for real-time flight status updates and tracking when data is current.
- Easy to use and informative interface.
- Helpful for tracking family and friends’ travel, providing peace of mind.

### Cons

- Ads are excessive and intrusive, with full-screen banners and hard-to-close prompts that disrupt usability.
- Paid version/subscription causes instability and often underdelivers value (updates can be late or unreliable).
- Flight data updates are delayed or not updated correctly, with times showing original schedules instead of delays.
- Search/airport coverage is limited (unable to search flights from some airports; terminals not listed until day of flight).
- Additional UI ad issues like widgets resetting after reboot or ads hijacking the app flow.
