Full screen ads.
Gulf of Mexico. App.doesn't update traffic. Not much use for this. uninstalled.
This app does nothing at all. I've never seen a plane that showed up on the app. Not once.
the cancelation process sucks. I figured out how to cancel subscription 5 mins after they took my money and wont give a refund for it. dont recommend at all

not available to download
LOUD UNSTOPPABLE PORNOGRAPHIC ADS!!!!!!
Too much annoyance when opening in the free version.
doesn't say when flights are diverting, unlike the market leading app.
feak app
Used for years and Flightradar is better - different types of aircraft fall off and are missed.. Planefinder just isn't good enough, having to flag up problems, repeatedly is tiresome ! - it's like they can't be bothered
enable OFFLINE MODE!! You can walk for the whole day only to end up with 1000 steps because the whole time you were offline.
i hate this
waste app...weaste off money
Can't say I'm impressed. currently tells me my daughter's flight arrives in 10 minutes when in reality it hasn't taken off yet. So it's utterly wrong.
Totally inaccurate, sais plane was at least an hour away and I was looking at it on the runway
Great app but CRIPPLING ads! The tracker runs nice and smooth, pretty easy to navigate - at least on par with the best flight trackers I've used in the past. Where it all falls apart though is with the ads. Now I understand that ads are necessary to help pay for the development - got it. But these ads are FULL SCREEN with no way to minimize or skip / close. Pretty much when an ad pops up you have to close the app and re-launch it, and that just completely ruins the experience for me. App deleted
some time flight info wrong. as today i have seen my flight 6E6395 which was app 45min late but your app showing flight landing in 1 hours. The information was totally wrong.
Went premium and for what? The '3D' function is sketchy at best. Won't allow me use on other devices as promised. Insights into history are minimal. Stay on Free version, you get little more if you pay.
Was very good, but has suddenly started aggressively displaying 3rd party video ads with audio, that inevitably pop up whenever you're in a public place, so everyone can hear them. Long ads, can't be skipped, irrelevant and annoying. Pretty typical occurrence whenever a good app becomes popular. Looking for an alternative. Shame.
