Flighty
reviews and complaints

I really enjoy the previous flights map and stats in this app. The interface is very nice and clean.

Please consider an additional filter to only show flights from a pilot/crewmember position! I noticed there’s an option to specify that when entering the flight, but I would love to see the map and flight stats for flights as a crewmember (similar to how you can select the flights for just a certain year). Thank you!

1. Since the latest update, all Eurowings discover flights have become Airbus Transport flights. 4Y is an IATA controlled duplicate, but it’s unbelievable that flighty can’t distinguish them. 2. Lately all my flights by European airlines (SK/LH/4Y) do not show real-time status or tail numbers, only the scheduled departures and arrivals. Why do I need a separate app for information that’s available on the boarding pass?

Ever since the app Flight Tracker left the App Store years ago there wasn’t anything quite the same in terms of design. This app has a clean layout with everything you need to know at a glance. Although, the data for the app is already out there so I’m not quite sure why the steep priced subscription model. A $10 download price seems more reasonable to me. I’ll use the free trial, but probably won’t be a paying customer.

It cost more than all my separate subscriptions and the lifetime is just as ridiculously priced. Im all for supporting developers but i cant see how anyone can justify those prices in todays global economic climate.

But besides the pricing its a beautifully designed app and it deserves a try by any flyer.

If you make the subscription pricing a bit more reasonable or have a sale then i will purchase lifetime instantly

Love the app, but it’s very neutered unless you cough up for the notably pricy subscription model. I originally expected most features to be unlocked with some extras added for those who subscribe or donate (like Apollo Reddit). But after my first flight demo, it became basically useless without paying for more. Personally will not be using unless they rework their pricing/features or have an ad support version or something

My wife and I both travel a lot. Just found this app. It’s a little expensive - but packed with lots of features. >> than Flight Update Pro and other trackers I was using.
And if you look at their release history, you’ll see they are rolling out lots of upgrades. Customer services is amazing - I could not get my phone and iPad to synch. Sent them an email, got a reply in about 3 hours, and problem fixed shortly after that.

I was about to write my own app after being disappointed with the flight tracking apps I had used in the past. I saw an ad for this app, downloaded it, and absolutely love what they’ve done. The only thing I wish they’d add is the ability to see wxr radar data as well as the ability to tune into radio comms of different airports. Also maybe the ability to get the raw METAR for an airport. But yes, absolutely amazing no regrets.

In addition the app pimps the pro features all over the UI. Makes it very clear that the free version is a kind of trial that is not going to let you have any fun without paying. Tripit integration requires ongoing subscription unlike other good apps that are one-time pay.

Deleting this app after the first launch. Will stick with apps I already purchased that don’t nag me and don’t require ongoing ransom to maintain functionality.

Was on a flight from FLL to MSP recently and used Flighty (free version) for the first time. The app indicating that we had landed but we were still in the air. That’s fine but then watching the mapping feature, the plane went from MSP and then started moving to somewhere towards Canada. I didn’t follow it very long but found it strange. NOT SURE if I wanted to get the PRO version but decided to try it for a year to see. Thanks.

Great app! Flighty has solved a very real problem and made my life significantly easier. It made keeping track of all my flights and my families flights a breeze! Easily the most useful app I’ve downloaded in the past year.

The only thing I would request them to change is that when I open the app, it keeps me on the upgrade page for quite a while and doesn’t let me view the information I need in a pinch. I wish it would close sooner.

Absolutely love this app. Decided to buy an annual pass after seeing multiple positive reviews and advertisements and boy am I glad I did. Worth every penny.

One critique, however, is the lack of effective identifcation of baggage claim carousels. The baggage claim category/title is there but does not update for me. Not sure if this is a bug or an impending feature, but it's something I'm looking forward to being rectified/implemented.

Every few years there is an app that comes around and establishes itself as a "personal stock app". This is one of them. I hope it is available for as long as we are carrying around little pocket computers. Even if it doesn't last forever, I will look back on this gerneation of software and think nostolgically about how *perfectthis app is. It is a need and not a want and I would cancel a dozen subscriptions before cancalling this one.

Update:
The app has been updated and fixed. This was apparently a global issue that was fixed within 24 hours

*** Old post:
I have been using the app for quite sometimes now. It was working well until a few weeks until all my flights were showing planes still at the gate even though they left or still flying even though my flights were completed. Not sure how I would continue to use the app when it doesn’t seem to be syncing much.

This is so good that you’re going to tell everyone how good it is and then they are going to be so annoyed with you telling them how good it is that they will vow never to download it purely out of spite - until they end up downloading it and then *theywill start annoying their friends by constantly telling them how good it is.

Anyway, it’s that good. My only ONLY nit is that I wish it included gate info. Other than that, it’s a marvel.

Hello flighty Team ,

First of all nice and great work. However I have two suggestions for you.

1- may be to reduce the price for monthly subscription with a promo code or a special deal for Black Friday. I’m in Morocco and really interested for your app.

2- second point if you could add a wallet in order to register our boarding passes, hotel confirmation, pre-reserved Uber , and more and to have then all in wallet of iPhone.

Thank you

The design and features set it apart from other apps but it keeps insisting my flight is on time when other apps already show it is late. Shows gate information later than other apps as well and the calendar integration is so finicky to a point where I just add my flights manually as it just stops working whenever it wants without any way to refresh or make it scan again. Cannot live on design alone. Like this I’ll be moving on. Really a shame.

You might think of those two things in the title as the same but let me explain.

The app has been carefully crafted to be gorgeous. It’s beautiful.

As a frequent traveler and million miler, it’s delightful in the functionality it provides. Clearly understood notifications, detailed terminal information, advanced flight route information. These capabilities delight me as I’m traveling, while the app is beautifully designed so it’s easy on my eyes.

First off the new version 2.0 is gorgeous! Second, love how amazing this app is. Bought the lifetime subscription. On one of my last flights I got notified as soon as the pilot released the parking break for pushback that my flight had left the gate.

Seriously amazing fast servers! The delay prediction is also great. I knew about delays before the airline posted!

As a frequent flyer, I absolutely love this app! Well worth the subscription!

This app is incredible! The amount of relevant flight status detail from before to during the flight is second to none. I am a very frequent traveler and have used many travel apps so can offer a couple of improvement ideas - 1) add transit instructions between gates for connecting flights and 2) offer checkin reminders for upcoming flights. Other than that - really well done to the developers! This is my new travel app favorite. Highly recommended.

This is an incredible app that synchs also with TripIt. However, it provides minute to minute detail on your flight, upcoming flights, etc. The speed and detail with which you receive updated info is mystifying right on down to “the door closed and pulling away from the gate,” “time to taxi to the gate,” “history of the aircraft and past behavior of late vs early.” Every family that travels shouldn’t have this…can share info with live link to others. Crazy good!
