"There are a lot of flight tracking apps for the iPhone - but most of them sell for $4.99 to $9.99. FlightView is significantly cheaper - and even more reliable.

Great but ?? Latest changes

Great app. I’ve been using it a long time. Thanks for adding the airport swap in search by route! But what’s the deal with that awful new font? Tiny SERIF font?! Do you miss typewriters or something?
Great app. Bad font update.

Great app. Does what it says. The only problem is the most recent update changed the font to a horrible looking one. Need the option to change it. Also would be great if they added dark mode. The new white background can be blinding at night.

I have been using this app since it came out quite a number of years ago. For the most part I like it better than the competing apps. But, especially of late, I have been very frustrated and unhappy with the notification delays. Often it takes 15+ minutes before I’m alerted on my phone to a flight notification… Departing taking off landing and arriving.The length of the delays in getting the alerts or notifications vary regularly, but more often than not of late at least quarter of an hour. I have had to resort to watching the app itself and refreshing as a post to just waiting for the notifications. As far as viewing any flights within the app, I often have to reboot the app so as to be able to refresh the screen. Often the updating of the flight information freezes up. I have tried to uninstall the app and reinstall the app, but I still have the same issues. Updated: seems to freeze up a little less, but not much. Not sure if just me, but same on different phones. I would like to request the we get CarPlay notifications in a future update. More and more states are finally going hands free in the name of safety. We need all the help we can get with app developers to keep people hands and fingers off of their phones while driving. *** Please add notifications to CarPlay ASAP ***
Easy and accurate

What a great app! It provides all the information I need to deal with my travel and that of others.
Excellent flight tracking app

This is my go to flight tracking tool I always check before heading to airport. One suggestion is a push notification for the saved flight schedule changes (delay etc). Currently I need to refresh continuously using the app. Other than that, I love this app. Keep polishing the app!
Persistent Phantom Alerts
OC Jeremy
I don’t know what’s wrong with this app but I constantly get push notifications for flights that I’ve deleted from my trips. They may have been old flights, canceled trips, etc. but even after deleting them from the app I still get alerts for these flight segments. I’ve even logged in via the website and looked at “my trips” and the flights aren’t showing there either. Until they can fix that glitch this app is a 1-star for me - you need to do one thing guys and do it well. You’ve missed the mark.

So useful

Living in south Florida means we always have lots of family and friends visit during the winter months. We have to make lots of trips to and from the airport. I love this app because it lets me know where the plane is and when it will land so we know when to head to the airport. I’ve used other apps but so far this is my favorite.
