User Reviews

PlaneEnglish ARSim offers strong hands on radio practice with customizable scenarios and broad coverage across VFR/IFR, plus cross device use and pronunciation help. Repeated drawbacks are unreliable voice recognition, a clunky UI, offline limitations, pricing concerns, and wish for more realistic ATC voices. Improvements in recognition accuracy, navigation, and realism would boost its usefulness for new students and classroom use.
Pros
  • Realistic ATC and radio practice with customizable scenarios (local airports, callsigns)
  • Broad, structured coverage of VFR and IFR radio concepts
  • Cross-device compatibility with a usable free access tier and pronunciation guidance
  • Helpful pronunciation training and self correction features
Cons
  • Voice recognition is unreliable and inconsistent; words are missed or misinterpreted
  • Clunky, non intuitive user interface and controls that can be confusing for new users
  • No offline mode; relies on internet connectivity to function
  • Subscription pricing and content access concerns; value and coverage may not meet expectations
  • ATC voices are synthesized and feel non realistic; better to use real voice recordings

I’ve been paying for this is app for a year and it worked ok on my Samsung and I got to do a few lessons. Then I had to switch phones and it kept asking for some google voices and refused to function. So I switched to an iPhone and it worked for a week or two then said i didn’t have an account but I’m still getting charged. I might love it if I could actually use it.
