User Reviews

The app offers broad airport coverage and good audio when streams work, and is easier to use on mobile than the site. However, reliability is a major issue: streams buffer and drop, delays persist, and feeds go down. The UI is often clunky and not intuitive, and stability/maintenance concerns lead to crashes and inconsistent performance. Overall, it has strong potential but is hampered by reliability and usability flaws.

Pros

Broad airport coverage including lots of airports, regional and international.
Good audio quality when streams are working.
Mobile-friendly and easier to use than the website.
Longstanding user base; users report familiarity and continued use.

Cons

Unreliable streaming with frequent buffering, drops, and disconnections.
Significant delay compared to the website; not real-time in the app (often 30 seconds or more).
Poor UI/UX decisions (frequencies not shown next to channels; extra taps to view details; perceived as unfriendly).
Feeds/channels frequently down or not maintained; some airports unavailable for weeks.
Stability issues: crashes, freezing, and occasional device compatibility problems (e.g., not working on iPad).

Recent reviews

This app is a one time payment for a lifetime of being able to listen to real ATC calls as they happens. I am studying for my PPL and this ha gone a long way prepping for ATC calls. Wish I could support the dev more.
