Flight Radar 24: Plane aware for Negative User Reviews

Cool apCool ap.Version: 1.6

Waste of timeIt is just waste of time! If you wanna get only remember that you need to buy a pro version- download it..Version: 3.0.7

TerribleYou would be following a flight and then it would vanish. Thankfully it hadn’t crashed. Just a crap app.Version: 5.2.8

Why buyI would not ever buy one of apps when I use once every other year..Version: 3.9.3

Absolute junkThis is probably the least intuitive app I have ever seen. Total junk..Version: 3.7

Forced data collection and awful appDownloaded the app and within 30 seconds I’m confronted with prompts that ask for camera, location, and microphone permissions. Deny and continue. Then it shows me a screen where I have to agree to ad tracking. Fine it’s a free app I have to pay somehow. Then in the app 90% of features are paywalled, the UI is slow, and there are ads everywhere. Awful app definitely skip this one..Version: 5.2.6

Beyond useless. Too aggressive trying to seek upgrade.I scrolled a round for about 10 seconds trying to find the area I was watching. Bam! Locked out for 1minute with "download pro to remove timer". Keeps wanting to re-center and I don't know why. Arrival time calculations seem to be based on airline's ETA not calculated as with other products. I'm watching a flight due to land in 10minutes that's only just took off on a 1hr flight! Considering the poor reviews of your pro product, I wanted to try before buying. You make this too difficult, and I don't know whether your extra features are worth it. Good luck though, would be good to have another flight tracking app, this free version just leaves a lot to be desired..Version: 2.5

Do not getRubbish ! You do not get to track flight or do anything much really till you buy pro version very misleading:(.Version: 2.4

Baaaaahhhh!! What is that ?Rien à voir avec l’ancienne version. I’m happy to flush It. Ne perdez pas votre temps, l’essai est décevant..Version: 5.1

Useless!Only showed planes in the air; couldn’t track a specific flight unless I paid. Which I didn’t want to purely for one flight. Then got an ad in Chinese which didn’t fill me with confidence so deleted the app..Version: 5.3.9

Flightradar24Not as good as the older app..Version: 3.4.1

BasicFound it only offers a few aircraft unlike Freedar.uk (which is unstable) hence the reason I downloaded this one..Version: 5.0

Why?In the airport, all the planes are in one spot ( the center ). Also, when you are looking to get around when you make the screen bigger it just lags back to a smaller screen, Finally, when your looking for a plane you can see that all planes have 4 engines ( two on each side ) and when you click on the plane it might be 2 engines ( one on each side ).Version: 4.4

Useless unless you upgrade to proI can’t figure out the purpose of this app. It does nothing but tells me to upgrade to pro. It has no other functionality..Version: 4.8.9

Not very accurateNot very accurate.Version: 5.0

Bad appThis app has to many glitches it even has a long timer to upgrade and it even tells you to buy the pro version to remove timer. This app is really bad. Wouldn't recommend it..Version: 2.6

Unusable w pop up addsI am willing to accept a level of inconvenience to use an app for free, but when a pop up repeatedly pops up after it is closed it makes the app unusable. Stay away from this app..Version: 5.2.8

Seriously stingyDon't bother, really tries to force you to buy it, without the ability to try features.Version: 2.4

Don’tToo small!.Version: 5.2.3

Almost not worth itPop up ads every 30 seconds. So disruptive that you can’t even evaluate the app to see if it’s worth buying the pro version. In between commercial disruptions, the app has potentials, but too aggravating to operate..Version: 4.13

All it is is an addAll it is is an add for the pro version.Version: 1.11

Flightradar24Was far better before. Call this an upgrade is a joke!!.Version: 4.9.3

This app is not worth itCrap ! This app is pure crap don't waste your time downloading.Version: 3.0.7

Very badToo much ads.Version: 5.3.9

Not fit for purposeDoesn’t know where a lot of flights are from/going to. Often says altitude 0feet but travelling over sea at what is probably normal flight speed rubbish.Version: 5.3.9

Flight radarAwful timer wasn't a good idea.Version: 2.8.1

NavigateNot easy to see all around the world together in the screen.Version: 5.2.3

Last version was so much betterThe last version had so many more features, then quit arbitrarily. I miss it..Version: 4.9.3

Horrible terrible and stupidThis app is so dumb it only shows like 7 planes and every time you zoom in it automatically zooms WAY out so don't waste your time with this app. :(.Version: 2.3

DisappointedUpgraded the free version to Pro this afternoon Had it for a short while Then went back to the free version Feeling ripped off!!! As the cost for the upgrade to Pro came off my I Tune account!.Version: 2.8.1

Quality of data and app is not greatI appreciate that this has a one-time payment to remove ads, instead of a subscription. I also like that you can buy the pro version directly, not just as an in-app purchase. But, I’m disappointed overall. Compared with other flight radar apps, it does seem to be missing quite a few flights - that’s the main point of this app. Beyond that, the app experience isn’t as nice as some others: for example, after losing data connection for a moment, the app gave me a popup I had to dismiss, and wouldn’t automatically refresh even after the connection came back. Additionally, the app’s web page -which is listed as where to get support - does not resolve (and hasn’t, for at least the last few days)..Version: 5.2.3

Bait & switch and for sure in app purchasesVersion unusable without paying. Right now I am seeing two (2) aircrafts at and around ORD a busy Saturday morning. Flightradar24 shows no less than 42 aircrafts in their free version..Version: 3.9.3

ReviewI always test out free apps before purchase. This one is quite glitchy - all the time. I try to zoom in or out and it changes locations totally. Not very user friendly and unless some changes are made for testing purposes, even say 7 days, I can’t purchase this app. Thank you though for a free version of sorts to test.Version: 5.2.5

Too many adsIntrusive full screen ads about four in just 5 mins of trying it out. Deleted.Version: 4.6

So badSo so bad.Version: 1.11

Not working properlyI upgraded from the Fred version and initially everything was good, not spectacular but ok. But a cpl of weeks in and there’s no destination being shown few details etc so can not recommend.Version: 5.2.6

Not goodAirport Zoom...by Flightstats...was great! They dropped the app. I've been looking for something comparable since...this is not it!.Version: 2.8.1

UselessUnless you upgrade to the "Pro" version for $4.00 this app is USELESS.Version: 2.2

Need to pay to do anythingIt doesn't say in app payments required, but every attempt to find a plane requires an upgrade..Version: 5.2.8

IrritatingSuch an irritating app since it won't let you do anything without upgrading to the pro version..Version: 1.8

Paying for Upgrade to pro hasn’t workHope the developer reads & acts on this - I just updated to the pro version paid £5.99 which shows I paid in apple & my bank accounts but the app has not upgraded. What’s happening…. Money for nothing??? Please help resolve Mr Develpet. Thanks..Version: 5.3.6

RubbishAbsolute rubbish terrible site.Version: 5.2.5

UserDon't bother. Nothing close to accurate..Version: 1.6

Searching for flightDid not show flight after searching after upgrading disappointed.Version: 1.5

This app is not usefulI recommend FlightAware since it actually works and it's free. This app requires payment to upgrade for tracking flights. FlightAware shows actual flight tracking FREE!!!!! Save your time and money and don't bother with this POS app!.Version: 1.8

Demo onlyShould be called DEMO. Useless for identifying the noisy jet overhead, since it only gives you access to a small random sample of planes. With the filter set to "show all size planes" it only showed 2 of the 20 planes in the area identified by Flightradar24. Only useful to see how the paid version might work, and should be immediately deleted afterwards. There is no reason to keep this app on your phone, since the random sample limitation makes it useless for anything you might want to look up..Version: 3.0.7

Needs alot of improvementsVery lagging, and it crashes alot on my iPhone 5s.Version: 1.6

Not free as advertisedDoesn’t work without paying. Why can’t paid apps be correctly labeled? It’s wrong to waste people’s time..Version: 3.9.4

Cant view continent wideIt’s good for viewing a fee flights at a time but I’d like to be able to see both if not all continental landmasses simultaneously. When I try to zoom out the map keeps zooming back in every time it refreshes which is annoying..Version: 5.2.8

Very badIt does not shows all flights and no information..Version: 5.0

Glitching to muchThe app just lags and glitch's all the time can’t zoom out to see where the flight came from.Version: 5.3.9

Wow! What an AppAny time I resize the screen, the app gave me a 15-second wait and a message says Resetting ATC radar or something like that... Plus, any setting/option I choose, this app shows a pop-up window telling me to upgrade... HMM, want me to pay for an app, it better first proof it's worth rather that all the hassles and made felt being a trap. Bad App and bad marketing philosophy..Version: 2.8.1

Old app as better!!!I have had FR24 for quite a few years and it was detailed. All of a sudden they start loading this HORRIBLY LONG list of COOKIES…..so I deleted it. I loaded this new one and it is very basic and not worth the trouble..Version: 5.3.9

Buggy and non-functionalPaid the the $7 for a weekly subscription and then had no choice but to cancel right away. This app is so buggy, it's laughable. How it even made it to the app store is baffling. So many 'flight tracker' apps now, most don't seem very legit all..Version: 5.3.9

Ridiculously uselessCan’t even track a flight by code. Everything is behind a paywall from the first time you open the app. Only thing you can do is select one of the planes on the map. And once you select it, you can’t select a different one! What is the actual point of this app?? Can’t even evaluate it! Shockingly crap..Version: 5.3.9

Don’t waste your money on the pro versionWhat a load of rubbish! Hardly any flights have the destination displayed-other apps have much more flight and pane and navigation etc information showing. And this is supposed to be the pro version. I’ve been conned. Don’t get conned and go to Flightradar24 or Plane Finder!.Version: 5.1

UnusableIt doesn’t work. If you scroll around it tries to recenter somewhere random and you can’t get away from that. Trying to pinch to see a greater area let’s you see it for a second, and then, recenters who knows where. Way too buggy. There are a ton of these apps and this one is the worst..Version: 4.9.3

Does not work in ManilaShows about 6 planes in and around Manila International. Hopeless in this region at least. Deleted..Version: 1.3

How to use ?Where can I get info on how to use?.Version: 5.1

AngelaDown loaded this app and so far it’s full of adverts and upgrades no idea why I’ve purchased it as not got any information on how to track flights, click on top left corner and you get a taxi advert.Version: 4.2

No planes show upI have several of these types of apps so I tend to compare them against each other. That might not be fair to the apps themselves, but that's just how I do it. MiFlightRadar shows a map image that's identical to most of the others. The flight data is up to 15min delayed but they don't mention that some data might be real-time so I'm not sure if they display any real-time flights. The app is generally ok but the airplane images are comically large and flat (not to my liking)..Version: 1.0

GarbageSo you get yourself flight radar 24, you see an aircraft, you open the app to see what the plane is ......no you get an instant advert. This app is totally ruined by adverts, don’t bother..Version: 5.2.3

ConfusedI’m confused how the app reports a flight being two states away, while the plane sits on the taxiway at LaGuardia. How accurate is the data? Or is it just simulated data based on where it SHOULD be?.Version: 5.2.7

AwfulThis is really bad and not worth it. It’s very slow, doesn’t let you scroll properly, you can’t see a whole country and the adds and pop ups are constant! Don’t bother with it! Delete!!!.Version: 4.9.3

Waste of timeWon't work. Please avoid.Version: 1.8

Worked okayI downloaded a couple flight tracking apps, hoping for better information about what was flying over my rural home. This app got a lot of negative reviews, but I don't know if they were deserved. I used the app for less than a day, but several times. Other than ads popping up, it worked well enough. The aircraft were not effectively identified. The numbers corresponded with the information on other apps, but the pictures of smaller planes were wrong, showing as a clip art of a passenger plane. Another difference was the altitude of the aircraft between apps. Which was right? I don't know. I'm just noting a difference..Version: 3.0.5

Not what they advertiseDo not download. Waste of time. Doesn't let you track any flights without upgrading. Shame on Apple for letting them claim this is a free app.Version: 1.6

Not that goodGiven all the other flight tracking apps, I have paid version of most of them, this one is poor to say the least. Can’t identify aircraft type or route more times than not...Version: 3.5

Good app butThis is a great app although is beaten by flightradar24 and this does frustrate me because you can't zoom out much. And planes are unavailable. But overall a very good app. 3/5. I do like it but if you're looking for one to go out with this isn't the app for you. Hope this was helpful.Version: 1.6

BadUseless and frustrating.Version: 1.2

No supportAll the icons are 4-engine jets. They charged me to upgrade to change the icons but they didn’t change and when I emailed I got no response..Version: 5.3.1

MisleadingNot free at all.Version: 2.8.1

Useless appUseless do not download cannot access Any function until you get an upgrade.Version: 2.5

Not accurate!Being a free version I expected less features but thought the data would at least be accurate. Airline info is wrong, e.g. POE (really Porter) is called Polar Air in app, WJA (WestJet) is called Air Labrador in app, etc. Also, flights that have elsewhere been confirmed as landed are shown in the app still flying miles away from their destination! Glad I could try the free version before wasting money on it!.Version: 1.6

Enh.I’m watching a plane fly by and the app can’t even find it. Flight Radar used to work quite well, now I’m looking for a different solution..Version: 4.3

Slow and unresponsiveConstant rubber banding, stuff won't load, wouldn't bother..Version: 3.2
