Flight Beacon

FlightBeacon is a real-time aircraft tracking app that lets you see every flight around you on a live radar map. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a plane spotter, or just curious about what's flying overhead, FlightBeacon gives you instant access to live flight data.

KEY FEATURES

Live Radar Map
See aircraft moving in real-time on a dark-themed radar-style map. Each plane is color-coded by altitude and shows its heading direction. Tap any aircraft to view detailed flight information including callsign, altitude, speed, heading, squawk code, and distance from your location.

Flight List
Browse all tracked aircraft in a sortable, searchable list. Sort by callsign, altitude, speed, or distance. Search by callsign, ICAO code, operator, registration, or aircraft type to quickly find the flight you're looking for.

Aircraft Details
Get comprehensive information on any flight — altitude, ground speed, vertical rate, heading, squawk code, geo altitude, ICAO address, operator, registration, and aircraft type. View the flight path on a mini map.

Custom Alerts
Set up alerts for specific callsigns, squawk codes, altitude thresholds, or proximity ranges. Get notified when a matching aircraft appears in your area.

Favorites
Save aircraft to your favorites list and track them across sessions. See which saved aircraft are currently online and which are offline.

Augmented Reality
Point your camera at the sky to see aircraft overlaid in AR with live flight data (on supported devices).

Customizable Settings
Choose between Imperial and Metric units, switch map types (Standard, Satellite, Hybrid), adjust data refresh intervals, and toggle dark mode.

FlightBeacon uses open ADS-B data to provide real-time positions of aircraft around the world. No account required — just open the app and start tracking.
