The Flightradar24 mobile experience was 3 separate apps, which was confusing for many of our users. We decided to merge features from our 3 apps into one and add most of the features from the web to make just one app with subscription plans shared between Android, iOS and web.
The free app had many more users, so by updating the free app to the new app we added new features to the app for free, enabled subscribers to take advantage of features across platforms, and also made it possible for our Pro users to keep using their existing app alongside the new app.
The new Flightradar24 app has been rebuilt from the ground up with many new features from the new Flightradar24 website included. Features like weather layers, aeronautical charts, flight history, aircraft on ground, and Extended Mode S data that weren’t possible to add to the old app are now available.
We’re already working on some great new features for the app and updates will be released regularly with new features and include updated data like to airports, airlines, and airline logos as they are added to our database.
