Comments on ADS-B Radar (RTL-SDR) for Android

★★★★★ Jake Bullit · Apr 24, 2023

Great app. Very handy for a rc plane pilot to alert me to aircraft in my vicinity. The new altitude filter for radar is just what I needed.

★★★★★ Garry Heather · Apr 16, 2025

Useful for antenna qualifying literally out in the field. I used this app to verify a home-made antenna from the top of Cheese foot Head in Hampshire (+175 m) and reliably received data from as far away as Liverpool (approx. 152NM) with an antenna made mostly from some left over T&E cable and a chassis mount connector. I have just paid to go add free and support the developer. It would be great going forward if we could export the data or produce a polar / max range from within the app.

★★★★★ Paul Piper · Apr 14, 2025

Finally....something that works. Quick download...attached to RTL sdr V4 dongle....driver download...jobs a good 'un. Attached to a dipole on the outside of kitchen window, I'm sucking in all manner of aircraft info. Just great fellas. Great App that works.

★★★★★ Mark Hill (Maleko) · Jul 26, 2023

The app works great for me. Take it, I'm just 3 NM away from PDX Airport. I can see all the arrivals and departures on the app and physically see every arrival flying over my neighborhood. Departures most the time take-off in the opposite direction of course. I don't see the airport from home but do see arriving aircraft, then, I hear the rumble of reverse thrusters to slow the aircraft down. Maybe I'll sit at the airport with the app and watch.

Lied about free use and unusable for specific flight tracking.
