Description by LiveATC(from Google Play)
LiveATC for Android is brought to you by LiveATC.net - listen to live air traffic control! (PLEASE READ ***IMPORTANT NOTICE*** IN FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION BEFORE PURCHASING - NOT ALL COUNTRIES AND/OR AIRPORTS ARE AVAILABLE)
Stuck in the airport terminal with endless delays? Live near an airport and want to find out what's going on? Have you always wondered what pilots talk to air traffic controllers about? Now you can stop wondering and tune in live!
LiveATC for Android provides a quick and easy way to listen in on live conversations between pilots and air traffic controllers near many airports around the world. LiveATC for Android lets you browse by U.S. state or by country to find an airport and listen in to live air traffic conversations at or near a given airport. You can also use the "Nearby" feature to find an airport near you. You can then add any channel to your Favorites list for quick and easy access.
The LiveATC Network (http://liveatc.net) is the world's largest network of streaming audio feeds focused solely on aviation, currently covering over 1,200 airports around the world with over 2,000 different audio feeds and growing daily!
Explanation of some of the needed device permissions:
• The "Location" permission is required so that the app can determine what airports are located in your area when you select "Nearby"
• The "Device ID & Call Information" permission is needed by the app so that it can detect when you're placing or receiving a phone call so that it can automatically stop the audio stream to prevent it from interfering with your phone call
*** IMPORTANT NOTICE *** Please check to see if your country, city and/or airports of interest are covered by LiveATC *BEFORE PURCHASING* - check at: http://liveatc.net . Note that we currently have no coverage in the U.K., Belgium, Germany, Iceland, India, Italy, New Zealand, Spain and some other countries where streaming ATC communications is prohibited by local law. Available airports are subject to change at any time - LiveATC owns and operates many of the receivers used in the network but most are provided by volunteers working in cooperation with LiveATC. Available airports can change, sometimes due to reasons beyond LiveATC's control. Also, there is no guarantee that all feeds will be up 24/7, though we make our best effort to do so and have a great track record of uptime.

I was wary when downloading this considering there were many mixed reviews about it. So far most of it has been great Some of the frequencies can be very static and sometimes can't hear actual ATC but some of them are perfect It all just depends on what frequency you're on. Also, it would be nice up with some more airports as there are limited. Overall though it is a very good app, and I love the extra diagrams it comes with, haven't actually gone on radar to check if there is any delaybutseem👌

As the son of an Air Force air Traffic Controller who went on to career as an ATC with the FAA, and a former ATC myself, I enjoy being able to listen in to the ATC/ Pilot communication.

I used to listen to another type of ATC, didn't have the same airports to listen to. I can see planes fly over, I can track them on a flight tracker and put in the destination airport, them listen here. Would like to have Little Rock Clinton National Airport (KLIT) to the list of airports in Arkansas. Would also like to see the Pacific HF Oceanic Channels. Listening to Oshkosh (KOSH) for the arriving aircraft for their airshow and watching them on flightradar24.

Cool but don't waste your money. Just use the website. I like to watch flight radar while listening to ATC but for some reason the app stops playing when you go to another tab. :/

This app is borderline unusable. The feed randomly restarts or doesn't start at all. If you switch apps, the feed stops. If you lock your screen, the feed stops.
★☆☆☆☆Jackson Fondren· Feb 28, 2025
Downloaded paid version. There are 5 airports within 25 nm of me only one of which it found. I have an airport 2 miles from me. Visible from my backyard. Not listed. Refund.

I had purchased this app to listen to the atc of my home city airport OPLA. And OPLA isn't available on this app. Really disappointed.
