FlightAware Flight Tracker App Reviews

What happened to the old good FlightAware!

It was a great app however the new update is terrible (unless you love advertising plastered all over!) Deleting app since there are much better ones out there.

It wasnt broke ...

Used to use this almost daily, now almost never. They had something that worked and instead of keeping it simple created something barely usable. Bad app.

App used to be my "goto"

Update broke the app for me. It used to display gate information. If it still does I have not been able to find it. Old interface much better!

Awesome

One and only app that ever gave correct information. Keep it up developers

Ruined a great product

New UI is borderline unusable and information poor. Used to present lots of good data in one place. Now I have to tap all over to find things. Lousy.

Issues...

It is a bit difficult to search and navigate the app but the biggest issue is the inability to set alerts and notifications for flights. Theres functionality to set alerts but when you try to save the alert, the app throws an error message. If that issue was resolved I would rate it higher

Awful

Not user friendly and didnt update flight info. Flight left 30 minutes ago and app show plane not having yet departed.

Wont stop crashing

When ever I open the app it crashes within 13 seconds. Every time I delete and re download it it still crashes. I dont know what to do anymore. If there is absolutely anyone out there please help me. Thank you

The update is terrible!

This new update is terrible. There is no way to track en route or scheduled flights by airport now!

App was great until last week :(

Oh I love this app. Track flights going over my head all the time for fun. I hear a plane and I check out where its headed. I even watched a flight my friend was on to and from Japan all day bc of this app. I love it! How cool! However I uninstalled and reinstalled it this past week, and now the app crashes all the time :( Im very sad bc it was so entertaining and fun to think hey that plane will be in China by morning! :) Hope u can fix it soon. Id give it 5 stars for entertainment, but right now 3 bc it is broken. Please fix it soon!

Review

You application has not tracked any if my flight following since January 3rd of this year I am giving you four stars so that this review would be posted. With two stars your program does not post it my revie

Bad App-anyone could do better

This app is so poorly constructed and user NOT friendly. Surprised how bad it is.

Crashes

The app now crashes immediately upon opening. Its useless.

Why

I dont understand how you can go from having the best aviation app to being irrelevant over night. This use to be the only app I would use but the so called upgrade pretty much made this app useless. Please go back to the older system.

Alerts are broken

With the latest version of the app, youre unable to set alerts for flights without the app throwing an error message. Without this function, the app is basically neutered. Other than that, the new interface is rather nice for a casual user.

Gone to Shiek

Use to be pretty reliable, now after typing in an aircraft tail or flight number, the app just shows a never-ending loading wheel. Every now and then itll work.

Perfect for monitoring arriving flight

Waiting to pick up at airport. Simple, easy to use, free.

Works for me!

Lots of info, but there is a learning curve.

Going downhill

This app used to be the go-to app for flight info. It is no longer anything even close to that. This most recent problem is that it wont refresh without closing the app and reloading the flight info. Time to move on to something else.

Great App! Details more accurate then others on market.

I think an excellent improvement would be to show speed and altitude. The information is available because I have it on other apps. I think another feature which is available is the ability set map perametors and view all flights on the map. Example would be to type in KMIA KORD and show all flight in air between those cities.
