That plane overhead — what is it? Where did it come from?<br><br>Plane Sight answers from your lock screen. Tap Start, put your phone away, and<br>look up: a live notification shows whatever is flying over you right now —<br>flight, aircraft type, altitude, and where it&#39;s headed — and changes on its own<br>as each new plane passes.<br><br>WATCH THE SKY<br>• One tap starts a two-hour watch session — no fiddling, no map to squint at<br>• The lock screen follows the sky for you and updates as each new plane takes<br>over<br>• &quot;Look SSW · 30° up · 2.4 mi&quot; — know exactly where to point your eyes<br><br>KNOW WHAT YOU&#39;RE SEEING<br>• Flight and airline, aircraft make and model, altitude and speed<br>• Origin and destination — Chicago → Washington, not just a tail number<br>• Route lookups happen on your device and work offline<br><br>WORTH A LOOK<br>• Get a nudge while you watch: rare aircraft, unusually low passes, widebody<br>heavies, emergency squawks<br><br>YOUR LOGBOOK<br>• Every aircraft you see is remembered — types collected, closest pass, low<br>passes<br>• A home screen widget keeps your latest sightings in view<br><br>BUILT FOR PLANE WATCHERS<br>• No account.
