Flyover Country App Reviews

Very good.

Provided quite some good details for my trip from Zürich to Singapore. A decent corridor for offline tracking and hundreds of points of interest along the way. Really looking forward to see the offline capabilities work the coming week.

It is a really nice app

Grat fun when traveling

Great educational tool

Turn flight into geography lessons! Awesome! The only drawback is that GPS reception is weak in the window seats of many planes - too much metal screening.

Interesting idea. Terrible execution.

This app has a lot of problems. At one point it got stuck in a state where I couldnt pan the map, which made it pretty useless. Closing and restarting the app fixed that, but then I set my route and tried to download the tiles, and the download seemed to just get stuck. The progress indicator is more or less worthless. Overall, it didnt seem worth the trouble.

Totally useless

All it would do is show me where I was on the map. Refused to access any info regarding what was below. Deleted it.

I am loving it!

I fly several days a week for work and Im really enjoying this app. Ive not had any problems with downloading unless I was connected to crappy hotel wifi. Ive recommended it to several co-workers and they love it as well. Im using the app on an iPad mini. So far no downloading or freezing issues. My only minor issue thus far is Id like my saved city pairs to alphabetize. Thanks for the fun app!

Doesnt work

I just installed this app but when I try to open it it just shows a blank page and after a few seconds it crashes! Waste of time and space!!!

I upgraded, now all I get is a white screen

Upgraded on my iPad running iOS 9.3.2. When I open the app, all I get is a white screen. Im in my home with Wi-Fi plus I have 3 bars from Verizon. The latest upgrade has a problem.

Cant save flyover data

Ive downloaded flyover data before a flight to Seattle, but save never gets beyond 115 MB remaining.

Trip Wont Load - Errors

I have tried repeatedly to save a trip, and load the data only to error every time

VoiceOver accessibility

Great idea but this app is not voiceover accessible.

Didnt work on my flight

Didnt work on my flight. Gps dot kept bouncing around from place to place

Love it!

As a geologist and a frequent flyer (4+ times a week) I absolutely love this app! I highly recommend it for anyone interested in learning a bit while they fly. Im looking forward to future updates and watching this app become even better!

Gotta use it to believe it

Works superbly. I had no idea that GPS continued to work even in airplane mode. Highlight of a recent flight was being able to tell we were passing by Hamburg before the pilot announced it. One quibble: deleted paths continue to take up space. Only way to clear them seems to be to delete app and reinstall. Worth 5 stars despite that inconvenience.

Really useful

This app is even better than I thought it was going to be. The info it gives you is super detailed. Takes a little getting used to. I cant wait to use it on my next flight. But I will use it later today on a hike.

Mr.

Great App, cant wait to enjoy it, good idea and good luck. YOU ROCK!

Great position tracking on plane

I was looking for an app that tracks the plane location via GPS on domestic flights, and this app does that very reliably. It gives you location, speed, and altitude. Theres also a host of other info but I havent looked at that yet. Unfortunately theres no option to save the entire US or world map offline, but pre-loading the flight path is as easy as clicking on two points on the map. Overall really good app, tested on four domestic flights, worked flawlessly, though it sometimes takes a minute to get a GPS lock.

Unrefined and counter-intuitive

Awkward to set route. Should be able to enter flight info and have it plot accordingly. Uninstalled.

Doesnt work

Once I hit "Load Path" if just acts like its loading data but it never does..... Ancient interface.

Great for a version 0.X

I downloaded this app during a trip as recommended by a friend. It does what it promised to, though the path loading does take a while but it eventually finishes. One thing to realize is that app consumers nowadays demand high quality and very well-designed UX and UI, if that can be improved upon then this certainly makes the app 5-star worthy. Great work!
