Features & Capabilities

Fly around the world with an easy-to-control drone.

Fly around the world with an easy-to-control drone.

This app uses the Apple Maps API and in particular its magical satellite flyover mode to provide a unique experience.

You can visit all the places in the world that Apple Maps cover, including an ever growing list of places with 3D models.

But instead of moving around by swiping with your fingers ,you are driving an easy to maneuver drone.

You can navigate with the joysticks, and you can also set up a speed and direction, set Full Screen with no overlay controls, sit back and enjoy the flight.

It can be a meditative experience when you follow streets, roads, coast lines or rivers and get lost around our wonderful planet.

Drone Travel is a kind of flight simulator... but one that focuses on enjoying the scenery from up in the air and the feeling of flying, and not on the technique of flying planes or other aircraft. The drone flight controls have been designed with simplicity in mind, a bit like driving a car or riding a bike except you are flying, so you can also move up and down and tilt the drone camera to point to where you want.

TIP: as you climb away from the ground the ascend speed increases, it doesn't take long to get really high. You can select Show Labels and see the names of cities and countries so you can actually fly anywhere you want, just explore the world, and go down where you want to take a closer look.

TIP: set the height, heading and speed, hide the controls (tap anywhere on the map) and enter Full Screen, sit back and enjoy your flight hands free.  

TIP: The ultimate viewing experience... AirPlay to your Apple TV in landscape mode!

This app is exactly what I was looking for. I’m surprised there aren’t more out there. I love the 3D imagery provided by Apple Maps, but I always wish navigating it could be more drone-like. I would like to see some additional features, like Orbit (an object), Follow (e.g. a road or river), a Drone mode that zooms out from a close-up, end anything else you can do with a DJI drone. Extra points if you make it Xbox/Playstation controller compatible and mimic the real-life controls of a drone. Aside from being entertaining, it would me great practice! UPDATE: On Vision Pro with the soon-to-be-supported PlayStation 5 controllers would be dope.

For over a year I’ve searched for an app that will allow me to free-fly over cities. Here it is! It is smooth as silk and oh, so controllable! It uses 3-D Apple Maps and gives me the same rush as truly flying. Super classy, big fun! Thank you.
