User Reviews

FlightDeck offers unique ACARS capabilities and customizable alerts with a 3-day trial, but is weighed down by a heavy paywall, lengthy onboarding, performance issues, data inaccuracies, and notification overload. The reviews consistently praise the concept and potential while criticizing accessibility, reliability, and pricing.
Pros
  • Unique ACARS features (ACARS alerts, flight logs) and access to digital aircraft messages appeal to aviation enthusiasts.
  • Pushed ACARS moments feature is a standout gem for AvGeeks.
  • Customizable alert levels allow tailoring notifications to user preferences.
  • 3-day free trial lets users test the app before committing to a subscription.
Cons
  • Paywall and expensive pricing with little usable free access; several reviews mention $50/year.
  • Long, unskippable onboarding/tutorial that gates access to features.
  • Laggy performance, slow map, and occasional crashes affect usability.
  • Inaccurate or inconsistent flight data and ACARS messages (e.g., wrong flights, stale messages).
  • Notification overload and poor control (too many alerts; turning off notifications doesn't always work).
Recent reviews
Apple billed me for the subscription after i forgot to cancel, immediately tried to refund and even though I had not even touched the app since i started the free trial was denied a refund. Tried to contact the customer support about this issue by the email provided in the app and have had no response. I can therefore not recommend this app unless customer support actually responds to me.

I downloaded this because it looked good. I realized quickly that the app has a guided, ad-adjacent intro sequence that shows you the same kind of Forbes reviews that you’d see on fake ad websites, it then has a mandatory popup asking you to rate the app. Before you’ve even signed up, 5 seconds after opening the app for the first time. Then they request you to immediately input payment information before you see how the app works. You can select “weekly $12.99” or “yearly $69.99” and you can’t progress without subscribing. Also, if you close the app and open it again, it once again spams you for reviews. Absolutely TERRIBLE dev decisions here, anti consumer, ad adjacent spamware.
