Features & Capabilities

Every flight can become a reel now: the route, your records, your shots and notes, cut to post. A ten-language phrasebook rides along. All in flight mode.

SkyPocket turns your phone into a cockpit for passengers. Flip on flight mode and everything still works: GPS is receive-only, like a radio, so your position keeps flowing while your phone transmits nothing at all.

WHAT YOU GET IN THE AIR • Live ground speed, altitude, track and vertical speed on cockpit-style tapes • An offline moving map with coastlines packed inside the app. Mid-ocean included • Cabin pressure altitude from the barometer: watch the cabin climb to 7,000 ft on its own schedule • Turbulence, g-force and bank angle from the motion sensors • The country below you, its local time and a fact to read as you cross it • The sun's position, so you know which side of the plane to sit on • 41,000 named peaks and 3,000 lakes on the chart, with a layer panel to tune what you see • Pick a destination for distance to go, live ETA and your arrival time

KNOW YOUR AIRCRAFT • Tell SkyPocket what you're flying, or let it work it out with you: seats across, engines, windows, even the A320's famous barking dog • Every phase explained as it happens, with your aircraft's own numbers: takeoff roll, gear up, the sudden quiet a minute after takeoff, cruise at its usual Mach • Two dozen cabin sounds decoded, and the ones nervous flyers ask about wear a calm NORMAL badge • 65 aircraft with the numbers, spotting clues and trivia that make them themselves, from the A220 to the Queen of the Skies

RECORD THE WHOLE FLIGHT Tap once before takeoff. SkyPocket keeps recording with your phone locked in your pocket, shows live stats on the lock screen, and detects the landing by itself. Force-quit, crash, dead battery: your flight survives and offers to resume.

MADE AT ALTITUDE • Photos stamped with your speed, altitude and position; clips with a live stats marquee • Flight notes: a thought at 36,000 feet, saved with the moment it happened • In flight, the tab bar becomes a flight deck: photo, clip, note, one thumb • A ten-language phrasebook, spoken aloud, with a sentence builder and the answers to listen for

AFTER LANDING • Flights name themselves from 4,000 airports: BFS to BCN, not just a date • A logbook counts your lifetime flights, hours airborne and kilometres flown • Replay flies the whole route in thirty seconds, numbers ticking as it goes • Turn the flight into a 9:16 reel: route, records, shots, clips and notes, in the order they happened. You pick every ingredient • Share a flight card, or export CSV and GPX

IN YOUR LANGUAGE English, Arabic, Japanese, Italian, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese in both scripts, Korean, Ukrainian, Russian, and now Hebrew: the whole app and the whole bundled World Factbook, so all 238 countries can be read about in your language while you fly over them.

HONEST BY DESIGN No ads, no account, no analytics, no subscription. Nothing leaves your phone. One price, and the whole world's map, airports and facts ship inside the app.

A window seat helps: GPS struggles through a metal fuselage. If the signal drops, SkyPocket estimates your position honestly, marked in amber, until the fix returns.

SkyPocket is for passengers, not for navigation. Follow crew instructions.

This app is an ingenious use of the data that iPhones can make available! I love the ability to have photos stamped. Great way to pass the time on a flight! The developer is very responsive to feedback and is constantly making improvements!
