Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Plane Finder AR and Plane Finder?
Plane Finder AR is our augmented reality app that shares the data available in Plane Finder- our original iPhone App. Plane Finder (and Plane Finder HD) provide a near real time virtual radar view of flight from across the world and include a great deal more detail that Plane Finder AR. All Plane Finder apps share common ADS-B data.

Why cant I see all planes?
Aircraft must be carrying ADS-B equipment and we must have a feed in the area. (In the US airlines have been slow to adopt the technology but usage is continuing to rise).

What if my area isn’t covered?
We are always on the lookout for more data feeds. Check back regularly to see if we have added your area. You could even help us by running a free receiver!

If I have an ADS-B receiver can I share my data for use with Plane Finder AR?
Yes. Please contact [email protected] and we will assist.

Can I use Plane Finder AR for navigational purposes?
Definitely not. Plane Finder must not be used for navigational purposes under any circumstances

**Whilst we do have the best network please double check coverage using our free app Plane Finder Free to make sure that we have coverage for your area**

Pros and cons of Plane Finder AR Lite app for iPhone and iPad

Plane Finder AR Lite app good for

Great for a free app, but limited. I am going to buy the upgraded version.
It works well and nice , if it have more info of the a/c it would be really amazing
The app works here in Halifax, ns, Canada. It doesnt pick up all flights, but the majority. I tried it at the cabin about 2 hours from here and it didnt work.
It would be nice to include the type of plane (B757, A340, etc)

Some bad moments

It doesnt do what it shows on the iTunes page - thats the pro version.
We also live under the NA-Europe trade route and I can only say, this is an appalling app.
Its very inaccurate. Let me know when all planes have that technology.
Keeps saying there are no planes in the area. I see 2 or 3 right now.
Its just a hoax. They want you to buy the pro version. This does nothing. Zero stars
I just got the free version and it crashes immediately all the time with an iPhone 6 running iOS 8. My brother-in-law has the paid version and it crashes all the time now too. He has an iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 9. Cant recommend this. Seems like a cool app so please fix this major issue
