OpenADSB 4+

Happy to pay $10 for something that’s not bloated with lord knows what and does exactly what it is supposed to. And I appreciate the how configurable everything is.

One thing I’ve noted is that other apps (FlightAware) or websites (ADSBExchange) use a variety of icons to represent the types of aircraft. This really helps with finding things at a glance.

Is that something that could be added in the future? Or perhaps I’m missing a setting somewhere. Thanks in advance for any help!

Wow, I’m surprised at the critical nature of some of these reviews. For safety’s sake, I hope pilots are using approved ATC and GPS tools and not relying on apps to build a VFR plan.
For the aviation enthusiast you’ll find a lot of tools to filter and drill down on the type of traffic you are seeking and provides a trove of data. For commercial flights I’ve found routing pairs to be incorrect at times (e.g. listing a flights inbound routing when it’s flying in the reverse direction), but those curious can look it up. The color-coded altitude markings are helpful without the need to display another label that uses valuable screen space. I’ve tried to filter commercial flights by using dump1090 filters of A2,A3,A4,A5, which comes close but you'll see see private Gulfstream’s and the like. Perhaps the Dev can advise on a better method of doing this.
Because of the filtering options alone this app should be in every enthusiasts toolbox. I don’t remember if this is a paid app, but the cost is nominal and worth it if so. I’ve not had Issues with the app crashing as others mentioned. One enhancement that would be helpful (but likely laborious for the Dev) is to vary the icons according to AC size.

Nice app. It would be nice if the plane colors for altitudes were the same as tar1090 and had finer graduation. Every plane below 5000’ the same color doesn’t tell much. I do like the legend, something tar1090 lacks.

Update. Playing with it more, I find a lot of customization in the settings. I like it better then the browser based version. I feed ADSB Exchange. It’s a valuable tool during fire season and this app does what is needed.

Update v2

The more I use it the better I like it. Wish there was a PC version.

It’s very configurable to your desires when you dig into the settings.

There are a LOT of features buried so maybe I’m missing some.

Here’s my “wish list”:

Missing adjustable range rings. 5 mile minimum for first ring would be handy.

How about a track highlights for Fire Fighting - 1255 Squawk

Just figured out setting location bookmarks. Great work. A location marker and range rings as if it were gps location. Editing labels would be the cherry on the sundae.

Selection Properties - Bearing from location? Could be combined with Distance?

Finer color definition of altitudes below 5000’

Thanks for your hard efforts. One of the best values I’ve found in any similar apps. Head and shoulders above all! Great work.
