PlaneCollector: Plane Spotting

Turn real-world plane spotting into a collection game.

See an aircraft in the sky? Point your camera at it and make the catch. PlaneCollector combines on-device AI with live flight data to help identify the aircraft you spotted and add it to your personal collection.

Whether you're spotting aircraft at an airport, watching planes from home or simply wondering what is flying overhead, PlaneCollector makes every sighting something you can discover, collect and compete with.

CATCH REAL AIRCRAFT

Use your phone camera to capture aircraft you see in the real world. PlaneCollector detects the aircraft in your photo and matches your sighting with live aircraft data to find the most likely plane.

Discover information such as:
• Aircraft registration
• Aircraft type
• Airline or operator
• Callsign and flight number
• Route information
• Altitude and speed

BUILD YOUR PERSONAL HANGAR

Every aircraft you catch becomes part of your collection. Build a personal hangar filled with aircraft you have actually spotted and keep a history of your sightings.

Catch the same aircraft again and build up a record of where and when you have seen it.

FIND RARE AIRCRAFT

Not every catch is equal. Aircraft are assigned rarity levels based on how unusual they are to encounter.

Common airliners may appear regularly, while rare and legendary aircraft can become exciting additions to your collection.

Keep looking up — you never know what might fly past next.

EARN POINTS

Grow your score by discovering new aircraft, registrations and operators.

Different catches and discoveries can earn bonus points, giving you another reason to search for aircraft you have never seen before.

COMPETE WITH OTHER PLANE SPOTTERS

Compare your score with other players through global and country leaderboards.

See how your aircraft collection compares with other aviation enthusiasts and plane spotters around the world.

EXPLORE AIRCRAFT AROUND YOU

Use the live aircraft map to discover aircraft currently flying nearby and find opportunities for your next catch.

PlaneCollector combines the fun of plane spotting with live aircraft tracking, turning the real sky around you into part of the game.

DESIGNED FOR AVIATION FANS

PlaneCollector is made for plane spotters, aviation enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys identifying aircraft.
