About this app

For the geeky aviation enthusiast to track and view planes flying in the local area as well as around the world using a radar style similar to the radar screens that Heathrow air traffic controllers use in the real world.

This App is a 'viewer' to any Virtual Radar Server you point at on the internet serving live flight data and it defaults initially to www.adsbexchange.com. It can be changed using the [Server] menu.

You can also filter plane data so that you will see only planes that fit a given filter criteria using the various flight parameters and variables available here: http://www.virtualradarserver.co.uk/Documentation/Formats/AircraftList.aspx

Built-in ADSB receiver/Dump1090 server listener functionality so with the correct hardware connected to your mobile device you can receive live plane data in your area directly from the air.

Real time GPS feature which allows users to leverage their GPS receiver on their device to provide real time speed, direction and altitude of their present movements.

Proximity Alert feature depending on distance and height away from aircraft to your current GPS position provides a visual and audible warning "traffic".

3D View mode with over 1000 airliners and military planes including the Beluga, Chinook, Harrier and Apache models not to mention many liveries of balloons, gliders, small planes and helicopters.

3D with VR - using an Android device that has the correct sensors (namely gyro, gravity and compass) you will be able to move your phone around in a full 360 degree circle in the real world and see where planes are positioned around you.

You can also connect to tile map servers and add more realism to 3D.

Changed my review back to 5 Stars. I had a problem with the app and CodingRealLife helped work it out quickly. Very much appreciated. I purchased the app and have really enjoyed it for a number of years. It is absolutely the best and only flight tracker out there with a no-BS interface. The radar type approach is crisp and uncluttered. The realtime experience really syncs well with liveATC. Listen to ATC, watch the aircraft responses in realtime. Very cool.

The app runs well, and it performs exactly as advertised. The reason for 4 stars, not 5, is that flights do not move once you open the app. You can open and close the app to get flight path/new location, but it does not show "real time". There may be something I'm doing incorrectly on my part.

In 3D press the 'Fast' button to get planes to fly smoothly otherwise movement should be every 3 or so seconds. Also servers may be playing up a bit due to usage overloading or maintenance.

I've been using this app for several months & it has been very useful. There will be a learning curve for those not accustomed to such apps or sites but "it's not rocket science". However, I encountered an issue over the past week. I emailed the developer & received a reply in less than an hour. The solution to my issue was easily resolved. This app has given me pleasure during these times and the excellent customer service is a plus.
