What is PlaneWatcher? Description of PlaneWatcher

Built for the Apple Watch
PlaneWatcher was designed specifically for the Apple Watch, providing the best possible experience on this small device. The map rotates to align with the direction you're facing, so you can easily identify aircraft that you see around you. Use the digital crown to zoom in/out and touch & drag on the screen to move around the map.

Unfiltered Flight Data
PlaneWatcher shows you all aircraft, unfiltered, unlike most major flight tracking apps. Made possible by our amazing data provider ADSBExchange, the world's largest source of unfiltered flight data.

Local & Worldwide
View aircraft around your current location or jump to any airport in the world. Use the digital crown to zoom in on a busy LAX or watch aircraft taking off and landing at JFK.

Aircraft Details
Simply tap on an aircraft to see all its details: flight name, registration, type, category, operator, altitude, speeds and more (depending on data availability).

Aircraft Following
Interested in a single aircraft? Follow it as it proceeds among the other traffic. Just tap the small blue dot to exit follow mode and return to the main map.

Multiple Filters
Just want to see aircraft below 10'000 feet, Boeing 747s or only planes from a certain airline? You can filter by altitude, type, callsign or registration. Filters can be combined, too.

Customizability
Customize the display using many options. You only want to see helicopters and hide all small airports? You can do that and much more...

Complications Support
With many different complications available, designed to fit into all color schemes, PlaneWatcher is always just a tap away.

PlaneWatcher Pros

Freaking Amazing!This app is by far the best ADS-B watch app, PERIOD! The UX/UI is exemplary!.I'm a freakin' App junkie!Version: 2020.3

It just works!What an excellent app! It’s so intuitive that I was just able to install and use it. Works like a dream on my Apple Watch 5. Even turns as I move in line with the built in compass. Data is second to none and kudos to ADSBexchange for supplying it. Can’t rate it highly enough 👍🏼Well worth £2.99.SBS PilotVersion: 2020.3

PlaneWatcher Cons

Does not workI have the latest Apple Watch 7 paired with an iPhone 13 pro. This app is crap. It loads but doesn’t work..FaderProVersion: 2020.3

Doesn’t tell you where the aircraft is coming from/going toIt would be better if there was a map with the aircraft over it. Also, it doesn’t tell us where they are coming from or going to..Ukjon1000Version: 2020.3
