byAir vs. Flighty


A complete travel companion — on every platform.
Flighty is a beautifully designed flight tracker for iPhone. byAir is built for travelers who need more — and who don't want to be limited to one platform.
Looking for Flighty on Android? byAir offers fully native apps for Android, iOS, Apple Watch, and Wear OS — all synced to the same account. Switch devices anytime without losing your trips or history.
But platform flexibility is just the start. byAir is designed as a complete travel companion, not just a flight tracker. Organize your entire journey in one place: flights, airport guides, transport options, travel documents, and boarding passes. Bookings are imported automatically from your email — no forwarding required. Share trips with family through WhatsApp or Telegram.
Both apps deliver real-time tracking, delay alerts, and inbound plane monitoring. Where they differ: byAir adds trip planning tools, supports 18 languages, and works everywhere you do.
Great flight tracking. Full trip management. Every platform.

What byAir users say
By far the most perfect airplane tracker I have found, came across this on a Reddit post and have since replaced flighty with this! Lovely!
I've finally found an alternative to Flighty. I'm very happy, especially since they're actively working on the software. Keep it up!
Great interface and easy to use! An excellent alternative to Flighty!
I've just discovered it in the last couple of months and it's as good if not better than any of its high level competitors. Easy to use and very accurate. The developers respond to queries immediately and are still improving it with frequent updates.
Overall best flight tracker app I have used ft. No Ads, Clean UI, Live Activities, Perfectly Optimised.
This is a really good app for aviation fans and frequent flyers. It's nice to be told when you can possibly arrive and be told the gate, carousel, and terminal changes.
