- please check www.planefinder.net to see live coverage in your area.

Important Note: Plane Finder works by picking up real time ADS‐B signals used by aircraft to transmit positional data to land based receivers. This technology is faster than traditional radar and is used for air traffic control and navigation. ADS‐B is not used by all airlines or aircraft, however this is changing and the number of aircraft tracked by ADS‐B is increasing all of the time. Traditional radar type data in near real time is also included for North America; this is subject to a short time delay.

Lite Version is rubbish! When you open the app, it's puts you in a random place and you have to scroll to your area... unless it crashes when you try to. Uninstalled it straight away.
Great little tool which I use a lot, both on it's own and in conjunction with Flightaware I was an aviation data researcher in another life...I'd recommend this little app for either serious or casual use. BUT, make sure you have an ad-blocker!!
Useless! Don't bother with this app. No info shown at all. I might have paid for the full version but because the light version gives no info at all I'm worried the paid version won't be much better.
I have just bought the pc version. I have FR24 and they both show different aircraft. I'm a bit disappointed that you can't have the full mobile version included in with the pc version
Had a problem with the planes when looking at them from airports. pick a plane inbound or out bound click on the plane it goes straight back to the airport on the map. have e-mailed them twice about it but not sorted.
Getting worse and worse. Aircraft icon does not always follow destination, wrong aircraft information (as general twin jet body) for a caravan? I use to like this app, now it is trash....
This has less functionality than open source and for profit trial versions. I was excited, but now I'm disapointed.
There is zero customer service. I paid for the full version on an iPhone and now have an Android. This should carry over but it doesn't and their customer service doesn't exist.
I'm not convinced this is real. I decided to check becuase ever since I knew about apps like this I always questioned their accuracy. Zooming out to see the whole world It detects 3000+ planes in the air...really? With whats going on in the world it is astronomically unlikely there is this many places in the sky right now. Plus theres the added nail in the coffin that they all move thousands of miles with every little pan across the map. Disappointed 😑
Really cool and accurate app! I'm using this all the time to see when ppl's flights get in the airport so that I'm not there waiting on them. I can tell exactly when to leave home
Complete waste of time. It doesn't have any features from the web site. Even for a lite version this is pathetic.
this app is not upto date.. there are many airports which's names aren't updated! FlightRadar24 is a lot better.
Little info. Very little to be gained from using this app. Ads every few clicks as well.
Flightradar24 gives more for free. This one's just ads. 👎
It is a ok app,and I can't find the flight I am looking for plus,lots of ads.
I love this app from a curiosity view, what is that plane flying over my head,where is it going. Great
Dreadful app so basic, there are far better free and easier to use, with more features out there,
Till blocking the other same named app great but no information about block tried to buy the new one without success after years of using it
Great app; gives flight # & tail # but ads pop-up every few minutes.
I enjoy just watching planes. Would have liked to become a pilot, but bad eyesight.
Flightradar 24 is way better because it let's have filters without paying
Very good when wanting the registration of biz jets when they don't show up on Flight Radar
does nothibg except show me a map of the wirld and says, "No connectivity".
Doesn't work stood looking at three big planes and apps shows nothing near my area
Doesn't pick up planes within range. Just random planes. Most likely operated by the nasty wee Irish boy.
This version not optimised for my device but I'll try it anyway...
The iPad version was great (until the changes in the iOS 13 release introduced so many changes I hated) but this version as always been bad. There are no features at all, they are all in the paid version, a huge banner ad covering the screen and the app is very very slow and doesn't update very often at all. Really badly made compared to the ios version.
