User Reviews

Pros: one-time purchase value, powerful filters, MIL tracking, fast performance, cross-device usability. Cons: icon variety lacking, stability and update reliability issues, and demand for quick-search/auto-follow/3D-map features. Overall, users praise the app for value and filtering strength, while repeatedly noting iconarity, stability, and feature gaps as the main drawbacks.

Pros

One-time purchase price provides good value without a subscription.
Highly customizable filters with saved presets.
Strong MIL (military) traffic tracking and ability to differentiate MIL vs civilian.
Fast, responsive performance and smooth UI.
Cross-device compatibility and overall ease of use.

Cons

Lack of aircraft-specific icons; all planes are shown with a single generic icon, making quick identification harder.
Stability issues including crashes, freezes, and occasional lockups.
Maintenance concerns with updates; some users report long gaps between updates or unreliable updates.
Missing quick-access features like a main-screen search and easy follow/auto-pan for a single aircraft (plus requests for 3D maps).
Occasional map display problems (planes not appearing or map not updating reliably).

Recent reviews

I’m not a pilot, just love planes, this is easily the best app by far, I just wish they used silhouettes of planes like on ADSB exchange instead of 1 generic plane model, so you could get a relative ID by looking instead of having to click on every plane.

You’re not going to find a better alternative to ADSB exchange than this right here. The only thing better would be using the ADSB Exchange website. Big shoutout to the developer. App works perfect and comes in at a very reasonable price!
