Plane Finder 3D App Reviews

Im astounded... I really should write more reviews, but havent in well over a year (plus) when in app begging started getting pervasive... I just experienced sitting in a plane, complete with pitch, roll and yaw, as it started its approach to JFK. I was completely mesmerized, and made it a point to stop and write this before I even got to land :-) I may be fortunate to be in an area with coverage, but even with coverage there are less planes than in regular planefinder. However, I truly dont believe you miss much by not experiencing being in a local plane with this app. You are able to EXPERIENCE being in planes from all over the world (IN REAL TIME), and it is truly astounding. Lack of coverage in the regular version of planefinder would severely impact my enjoyment of that application, and you do lose out on the cool 3d view of the sky above you without local coverage. The 3d sky overview is beautiful, and kept me busy for a while. However, once I hopped on a flight, I realized that the 3d view was just incredible window dressing (and great UI) for a much more profound new application idea. Heres a hint to get the most out of the Fly Me functionality - pick planes that are LANDING. These planes are making more frequent flight adjustments, and you can see the result against the ground as a reference. Planes taking off are just looking at the sky (with some clouds for reference), so the experience is a bit diminished. Just as in real life, straight and level flight is boring, so... I dont suggest those for the best experience. No wonder I rarely write reviews, I end up writing novels (but only for apps that deserve one). And I forgot to mention no on app begging for reviews!! (at least not yet). Enjoy!

Scam. Dont buy. Only shows a few airports and a few miles around them.

The idea is pretty good but the app keeps crashing. Every time you touch a plane, The app closes and youre back to the home screen. At least on my set up but that looks like a common complaint. Just a couple of suggestions 1. Update the app to show the type of aircraft being flown, Currently all aircraft represent Boeing 777s 2. Update the app to reflect the current liveries on the Various types of aircraft Being flown. If those updates are implemented and the app does not crash this would be an awesome app.

Like the app. Hard to navigate and what if you want to go to another regions in the world ?

Great idea, needs a lot of work. Hard to use and not very responsive.

Limited to just a few airports. Disappointing. Looks great for areas it covers, but just too limited.

Crude and unfinished. I miss my dollar now.

Look forward to future developments. Couple with liveatc.

This app wasnt able to find flight MH370 to Beijing. How do you lose a 777?

This us my first review. This app does not work period. Crashes every time. No pun intended.

Do Not Buy On Mine It Doesnt Show The Planes

Not only is the database limited but it simply doesnt work. Even if you look at the airport you want.

Cannot add airports, Atlanta the busiest airport.
