We like it! I've only tried 3 flight tracking apps, but I like this one enough to uninstall the other 2. :) T.W.O.

Waste of Money Your device isn't compatible with this version.... I bought this app after using the free version for quite a while. Two weeks after I buy the paid version I get an upgrade on my phone to a newer version of Android. Now suddenly the app is no longer compatible with my phone. Six months later... Still no update to program to make it compatible with ICS... Oddly the free version still installs without error.

Great App One of my most useful tools on my phone since I travel a lot for business. I really find the calendar interface a the best feature for me. Well worth the money if you decide to upgrade.

Great Flight Tracking. I used the free version for some time, worked great. The $0.99 is worth it, app runs much smoother w/o the ads.

The best I've used! I've used several flight tracking apps, and this one impressed me so much, I bought the paid version within hours of the trial! A well-done app, for sure!
