Buy it once and it's yours for life. A window seat is recommended for the best results.

The Aviation Nerd:
• 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
• Share a flight card, or export CSV and GPX
• Replay flies the whole route in thirty seconds, numbers ticking as it goes

The Nervous Flyer:
• 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

The Storyteller:
• 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
• Turn the flight into a 9:16 reel: route, records, shots, clips and notes, in the order they happened. You pick every ingredient
• In flight, the tab bar becomes a flight deck: photo, clip, note, one thumb

The Globetrotter:
• 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
• A ten-language phrasebook, spoken aloud, with a sentence builder and the answers to listen for

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.

In your language:
English, Arabic, Japanese, Italian, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese in both scripts, Korean, Ukrainian, Russian, Hebrew and Polish: 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. ## Rankings - #2,689,464 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.CAMERA` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `io.jmk.skypocket.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [PocketSky by SayIntentionsAI](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sayintentions.pocketsky) — 6,859 users, 4.79 / 5 - [SkyPulse: Flight Companion](https://chrome-stats.com/d/ai.saifullah.skypulse) — 11 users - [Skybase: Paragliding](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kplevac.cloudbase) — 4 users - [SkyTrack: Flight Log & Maps](https://chrome-stats.com/d/cz.skytrack.app) — 36 users - [Flight Map Lite](https://chrome-stats.com/d/marko.android.flightmap.lite) — 319 users - [AviaMap](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mainit.aviamap) — 18 users - [SkyTrackPro](https://chrome-stats.com/d/ch.app.skytrackpro) — 235 users - [True Skies](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.trueskies.android) — 38 users - [SkyNav](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.imranum.skynav) — 49 users - [Flightsky: Flight Tracker 3D](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.live.flight.tracker) — 1,299,987 users, 4.68 / 5 - [SkyLog: Flight Logbook](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.bokdol.skylog) — 36 users - [Sky Smart](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.funroomstudio.skysmart) — 29 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/io.jmk.skypocket)
