Fun for enthusiasts. Paired with a flight-tracking app, this one makes listening in on far-flung reaches that much more enjoyable. If there is another update I'd love to see some kind of chat function, access to the interesting recordings on their website, and time of day included on each airport's listings.

Can be better. This app is good! I was debating buying it because you can listen for free online but it is much easier and efficient on the app. One thing I think would make it easy 5 stars is to add some sort of comment section/discussion board where listeners can chat about the things they hear, I feel like most listeners are ATC or studying ATC so a discussion board can be a good place to communicate.

Good app but needs updating. The app is good with lots of different area to listen to, but the app needs a major update as I don’t think it’s been updated in a long time. At times it will completely stop with no sound. Other times the actual ATC area will be totally shut off.

Fantastic App!. The premium version of this app is a fantastic deal. This app does everything a several hundred dollar aviation scanner can do, but does it without the effort. No programming frequencies, no making lists of channels from your local airport. It is all done for you and what makes this better than a scanner? Scanners only bring in local frequencies. I am in Miami Florida and if I tire of listening to my local airports, I can hear whats going on at JKF or DFW. Try doing that with a scanner!

Good, not great.. I much prefer the website to the app. First, on the website it clearly lists the frequency alongside the description. On the app it will just provide the name (i.e. KSEA Ground) without a frequency. To find the freq you have to select the channel and then select “view frequency.” There is ample room on all pages to show freqs, requiring extra click-throughs is just bad UI. Second, there is SIGNIFICANT delay on the app vs. the website. The website is typically within a few seconds of real-time, whereas the app takes a very long time to load a channel and consistently has delays of 30 seconds or more. If you’re listening to ATC in conjunction with plane spotting, such a delay makes the app practically unusable. I’m still a huge LiveATC supporter and the website is still an excellent resource, unfortunately this app is poorly built with too much lag to be useful.

Crucial Airports Missing. Dont take me wrong, this truly is a magestic app. Although it would be great if the airports Ezeiza and Aeroparque (Both from Argentina) could be added. I dont know how the adding airports policies work but for sure this ones would be great.

Wow. I've read some bad reviews, I guess you can't please everyone. This is my favorite app. I love this app I spent most of my life in the USAF and love flying and to listen to the talk between the crew and the ground tower is amazing I read a review that said this is time delayed 10 secs is this true even if it is I still keep listening. It sounds like this should be illegal I never knew so many foreign pilots flying in to SFO barely speak English

Many feeds are horrible and not maintained.. I believe that the platform is just fine. A bit antiquated but it works. However, many of the feeds are poorly maintained and very noisy. Lots of channels are not actually working and no one cares about it. I sent notice to the developer and nothing happens. For example, CLT only has departures and no approach. Controller transmissions are noisy and low quality. SJU approach and departures you can only hear a loud hum and one way traffic. Not sure how that can happen for so long without someone looking over. You know, I paid for the app. It’s not free and for that we expect a good level of service.

Great app with great selection at good value. As a new aviation enthusiast, I find myself listening to this app several hours each week while I work. There's an amazing selection of frequencies to choose from and I don't understand the complaints from others regarding selection. It's unrealistic to expect all airports and frequencies but the major airports are covered here. Awesome selection. I love choosing a random airport and then cycling through the different frequencies for ground, departure or approach. Great app for a good price that's even more fun when used with a live radar app. I highly recommend this.

Decent app - add archives. This is a good app - but it doesn't have the past recordings (archives). I'm not sure why, this seems like it would be a very easy feature to include so we don't have to go to the website to listen to the archives. Also the receivers need to be located closer to the broadcasting sites to reduce static.

Connection now drops after 5 minutes. This is a great app, that for some reason has recently became unstable. I have been a very frequent listener and until a month ago, I rarely had a long duration connection drop even on a cellular connection. Now, the feed consistently drops after 5 or so minutes and must be restarted. BTW, I would be happy to pay a reasonable subscription fee to offset development expenses. Hopefully this issue can be resolved. Thanks again for a great app.

Great for student pilots the aviation curious and old professionals. When I was learning to fly a struggle a bit with communications and talking on the radio, and my instructor point to me into this app which let you listen into pilots and controllers talking to each other at airports both small and big. I got to practice listening to read backs and then see whether I could catch all the information. It's amazing to be able to pull up radio calls from airports all around the country and be able to listen to what radio comes sound like when the weathers good when the weathers bad on a busy day, during a major air show, and it's all as close as my phone.

One of my favorite apps, but I have a suggestion. This app is one of my favorite apps to listen to. It is so interesting to hear the ATC. My suggestion is to be able to choose which frequency to listen to individually. For example at KIAH, I tap KIAH Approach, but there is like 12 frequencies that it is monitoring, it would be nice to choose which of those 12 I can listen to. No big deal, but just a suggestion.

If you can add Apple car play function?. Hi I am driving a lot and wanted to have this app also in the apple car play system, so while I am driving I can easily swap and select the station I like. Or at least I can select the favorite station…. Thanks so much! Leo

Good app, could be better. It just seems like this app does not have a lot of user-friendly support where you can make complaints on certain feeds for example I listen to the Oakland international airport feed and I am bombarded with ATS automated terminal service I believe constant information they used to have a separate Channel for the main tower that is off-line now and they do not give an exclamation why it’s off-line and enough information to users to find out if that particular feet can be replaced it’s like it’s there one day and gone the next and no reason is given no updates or anything like that on any of these scanner type police radio apps or airport apps that’s just not right and unfortunate to the developer can you please put in some more helpful support so users can get in contact with the feed providers and if they are not up to par find someone else who can do the main towers for Oakland international airport sorry I’m so picky about this but it just seems unnecessary to listen to the automated terminal information stuff when you want to listen to the main runway and tower and the seeds do not sound the same 1 feet is stronger than the other was two speakers thank you

Must have App if you a P......... I have had this since day one. Many many years ago. I am a private pilot and just like many of us I am an airport/airplane bum and love listening to ATC. If your a pilot or just a wannabe :) this is the only App you MUST have :) N 124JG on final and clear for runway 9-er.

Great App that replaces the infamous United Ch9. This app is the best you could hope for in the environment of overly regulated Air Traffic Control audio. Not only that it allows you to listen to music while tuned in. Wish more apps did that. 5/5

KIAH Frequencies Still Bad. Both KIAH Approach & Tower Frequencies are still terrible for going on 4 Weeks now and again My chief complaint about this APP is that there is nobody to contact to find out if anyone is working on the issue or not?? I cannot hear the Pilots nor the Tower for KIAH Approach nor the KIAH Tower - just a lot of noisy static - so I have to often come here to the review page but I’d like to avoid doing this so PLEASE get a contact email so listeners do not have to come here to the APP Store and complain that they cannot hear the Stations😖.

Ok. When I first got the app a little while ago it worked great and I had a lot of fun using it. Now however, it seems to have a major problem with connectivity and it seems like every airport I have tried is not connected or as the app puts it , a streaming error. I wonder if this is fixable.

Great but lacking. Great app but unreliable for FLL airport there is no way that you guys can not get all the feeds for this airport back up after 9 days I’ve contacted you 5 times about this issue for KFLL all I’ve gotten was we will reply back typically in a day or two and the email is a reply a day to 15 days for a reply back and how does this issue not warrant an immediate reply back this is urgent you are alienating the FLL spotting community that use your app me included just fix it

Needs a gain adjustment. Needs a volume adjustment to turn up quiet feeds. With the latest features, I like to have music on in the background, but unless the music is super quiet, I can’t hear ATC. Please build in a way to turn up the app volume!

Tremendous help. I purchased this app for my student pilot training because I was terrified of having to talk to ATC. After using this app, my fear vanished. In fact, I gained so much confidence by listening to "tower talk" that when it came time for my first cross country solo flight, I was extremely confident--and ended up having no jitters whatsoever when talking to tower. I highly, highly, highly recommended the LIVE ATC app!

Like being in the left seat!. This app is great as it is one of the few if not the only app that allows you to listen to live ATC throughout the country and the world. One feature I would like to see added is to allow the app user to input the frequency changes when tracking a specific flight as well as creating a log of those frequency changes and the option to save them so the user will have the most recent and updated frequencies if they have changed.

Suggestion: Audio Archives?. The website offers a way to access audio archives, which is very interesting. I wonder if that feature could be added to this app? Anyway, I come from a family of pilots and we love this app! Great job!

No way to adjust audio levels. This is a helpful app, and I do enjoy that I can play ATC audio while receiving audio from my other apps… however most channels are super quiet, so I have to turn the volume all the way up to even hear ATC audio… and If there’s a notification or any other sound from my phone.. RIP to my hearing. An example would be listening to live ATC in the car while using google maps. You can set google maps notifications/directions to quiet, however that is still ear piercingly loud since this app has to be turned all the way up. Please fix this.

App won’t play for more than 5 minutes. I’ve noticed the app will no longer play for more than a few minutes. It will stop playing after about 5 minutes and has occurred on all frequencies I’ve listened to recently. It also doesn’t seem to matter if I am in the app while listening or not. This seems to be a new issue as I haven’t experience this before and I’ve had the app for awhile. Please fix this is as it’s frustrating having to press play over and over and over again. Thank you.

Great much-needed update!. I thought this app was abondand two years ago but after the version 2.0 update, this brings a great new layout, more iOS-like look and feel, improved navigation, & optimization for iPhone X. Despite a small bug or two, this app is so much better than before.

Channels are not guaranteed. As a student pilot one of the last things to check off my list is controlled airspace. No big deal, I use the radio regularly but is is nice to listen to Live ATC to get familiar with order of operation. Every day for a week or so after purchasing the app I listened to KDSM which is not far from my home and where I will be flying in and out of. After a short time the channel just disappeared off my list of channels. I can listen to other airports and get the basics but it is not the same as becoming familiar with your home airspace. I’ve been waiting to see if it come back and roughly two months later it has not. 5 stars easy if it was dirt cheap or free, or if I got the frequencies I wanted.

Could be better. My biggest complaint is switching frequencies, I can add favorites but the change channel button disappeared after a few minutes so every time I have to look up the airport or frequency and select the new one. So a quick drop down menu for favorites would be a nice fix.

Great app. Frequently won’t quit.. This is a great app that I love listening to or even previewing pattern traffic before a flight. I frequently have a problem with the app continuing to run and broadcast through the phone even though the app has been closed (and yes....closed....not just in background).

Love the app, why the criticism?. It’s strange how many 1-star reviews criticize either the availability of a particular field or the quality of the reception. Do they realize the feeds are crowd sourced? One guy complained about paying $4 for the app. Well, this app is worth every penny of $4 for those interested in aviation like me. If you want a field added, then go buy a scanner and hook it up. If you’re dependent on this app for a critical operational function that is broken when the feed goes down, then you’re insane, buy a VHF radio. In the meantime, try to accomplish 5% of what this app does for $4 and I’ll applaud you cheapskates with both hands.

From a Pilot. I've been flying for years and I gotta say, this is the site/app that helped me learn communication with Air Traffic Control. Talking to ATC is like second nature to me because of this. Amazing app to have! However, see if you can get KSAN Clearance and ground on there for us? Keep up the great work! - CF

Love it. Great app.. Living in San Bruno hill over 3 decades and all runaways visible insights and watching planes land and takeoff was a real treat for a lifetime. As a ham radio operator since teens I have been a fascinated listening KSFO frequencies. This app is the closest you can get listening to the frequencies. Now that I'm close to retirement I've move up north and start listening to 3 airports in my area. KSMF,KMCC,KMHR.

Works Perfectly. As I’m writing this I am listening to a Southwest plane do a touch and go at Sac International. You can have other apps open while listening and it’s all live. Definitely worth the price. 5 Stars!

Good but.... Great app but 2 issues. I could not get it to shut off on my iPhone 10 . I finally had to delete it completely . Also for ktvc, only ground and center frequencies are available. Most useful would be tower, esp so I can gauge activity before leaving home . Sound was great, clear . But, can’t keep adding and deleting app every time I want to use it.

Something changed :(. Up until a week ago, I would have given this app 5 stars easy. But for the past week, all I hear is static. Sometimes I can hear voices, but mostly loud static. This is a huge bummer as I loved listening to this as I am a student pilot in training. Worked fine until a week ago. My girlfriend who has this app on her phone says the same thing. Not sure what changed but hopefully they fix it. If this app gets fixed, I would happily give it a 5 star rating.

Awesome app!!. Great app, I go down to SAN and watch the planes take off and land. Now I can listen to the traffic, makes the experience even better. The app works great and it has only lost connection once but it refreshed and fixed it self pretty quick

It could be better!!! But here are my problems. 1.stations are available one day and off the next. Not as reliable as I would want. 2.its not free, thus making me think that they would put in effort to try and keep stations that they already have! Not relying on (us) people to do the work for them and add the stations. It's good but not great. But I still like it. They just need to put more work on it.

A little deceiving. Was super excited because my local airport was listed when I purchased the app... 2 days later, it has been removed. I'm hoping that I just had bad luck and this doesn't happen to most people who purchase this app for a specific location, but I did want to share my concerns. It's a great app, but I probably would not have purchased if I would've know that my local airport would never connect and would be removed 2 days after my purchase. Waste of $3.99 in my opinion, so be careful if you're looking for a specific region...

Latest Version Is A Big Step Backwards. The latest version starts with a message in red NO CHANNEL SELECTED even though it is playing one. A lot of the time when I try to select a channel by hitting the blue bar SELECT CHANNEL it will kick me back to CHANGE CHANNEL screen. When first starting it doesn’t start with the channel I last listened to. Also what the heck is the Blue bar at the bottom with the L and R on either side.

Great app ....but. So I got the app for a specific reason. Which was to monitor KLAX but it has not worked at all for that airport. It used to work great but for some reason it's always unavailable now. Can you guys please fix this.

My top 3 apps. I’m an aviation nut. This is my top 3 app easily along with the gold version of flight radar. Using those two together is very fun while plane spotting. Being a user of the website and app for years and I have very little to complain about.

Great app - a couple suggestions to improve. Very useful to find out firsthand what’s happening in preparation for travel. And with more and more gate to gate satellite-based inflight Wi-Fi you can follow your flight throughout. That said - please consider the following: 1) Please list the frequencies a station is covering as per of the table cell when opening to select a feed (favorites, change channel, or directory). When listening to the feed there is a list. This doesn’t need the description- just a comma separated list of frequencies. 2) Would be great to have more than airport diagram linked, but also departure/arrival/approach plates. 3)This one is tougher and not sure it’s possible. But would love to be able to enter a flight number and find what channel the flight is on. 4) In the feed frequency page, it would be great to know if feeds are mixed, or if a stereo split then which feed is in which ear. This probably means a bigger change but it would be helpful. Thanks for a great app and thanks to everyone who provides feeds to the system.

The Gold Standard of Radio Apps. I have used this app on three continents and dozens of airports. It does exactly what it should, without an unnecessarily cluttered interface. Stop looking, you've found your ATC monitoring app! Oh, and for those complaining abut occasional outages, keep in mind that this app uses feeds that are provided and maintained by volunteers. Until you are willing to do the same, stop criticizing and consider some gratitude for those generous souls providing this great content.

Great app. Love the access via nearby and other airports. I use it to help my ATC communication improve. One item of feedback. When I am on an airline flight and my flight is being handed off to another frequency it would be great to be able to search on frequency like you can on the web site.

Quits playing without notice. Just as the title suggest. I like to listen to my home airport as background noise or listening for practice with my own conversation with ATC when I fly. Without warning, it will just stop. I won’t realize until I notice I haven’t heard anything for a while. When I go to check, sure enough it’s stopped. So aggravating, I’d expect that from a free app, but this is a paid app. Update- I have discovered that this issue is from my device automatically switching from LTE to 5G or vice a versa. I’d like to se an update that would resolve that issue.

B better. The software seems to work but you can’t select a discrete frequency which means several frequencies are taking over each other. The frequencies are listed separately but they are for information only. Who knows, maybe there is some law restricting this feature but it would be very nice to have.

Won’t stop playing in the background. When I’m done with the app on my iPad I swipe to close, yet the app will somehow turn on and connect to my headphones or car Bluetooth if my iPad signal is left on. This app for whatever reason just starts playing even though it isn’t loaded/opened. It’s quite annoying. Other than that the app works well though the radio are difficult to hear though that’s common in aviation anyway. Over all worth the money I just wish it only turned on when I told it to.

Pretty good. I use this app all the time. As a pilot I enjoy listening to ATC and pilots and follow them on a “radar app” as well. The app works well but I wish there was a way to input a frequency vs choosing from a list. Some of the sectors for Seattle Center aren’t available to listen to. Update?? Otherwise I think the app is the best of its kind.

Amazing. I purchased this app last Wednesday. I am very satisfied with it. I only gave it four stars, because I want you to add one thing. Please add a search airplane, and then tag button so that we can follow it from start to finish without changing frequencies. If you do that, I will change my rate to five stars. Please read this, and get back to me as soon as possible. Have a nice day.

Can’t listen on multiple channrls. I like to monitor multiple channels at once, the app doesn’t allow this and yet you can with the free LiveATC website by opening up multiple browser windows.

Melbourne Center/Tower has been down for months. Hey guys, Why has this frequency been down for so long and are there any plans to fix this? It’s my local airport and I’m really keen to listen in and watch the radar for pilot training purposes. Thanks 🙌🤘

Awesome. Awesome app great for getting to know the airport you are flying in and out of all the way from training to professional would like more airports though like heathrow and more of Europe

CarPlay support. Great app (I run the YGAW feed) CarPlay would be great to get an idea of what traffic is doing when driving to the airfield.

Useless. Brisbane not working most times. No updates for over a year now. How frustrating. What's going on?

Love it. Very stable, sometimes it can't open a channel " connect " restart the phone or app and then it will connect. Would be great if there was coverage for UK not sure why Australia can have small airports covered and not one for the UK. Overall a fantastic app love been able to listen while on the move or at hne.

Love it!. Really love this app! As a private pilot who can't afford to fly much, I use it a lot!!I run it alongside planefinder then you can both see and hear the aircraft and lots of info about them!

Where did Sydney go?. This was one of my favorite apps until last week when all the Sydney channels became unavailable! Please restore the Sydney international ATC channels so that I can recommend this app to my friends and Neighbours again...

Fantastic. I highly recommend getting this app and teaming it up with another one called flight radar 24

Brisbane hasn't worked in weeks. Why hasn't Brisbane worked in weeks? Starting to get really annoyed with this!

OBVIOUSLY US BIASED. I haven't used the app often. But it'd be expected to work whenever you did. The one time I come on and try to listen to Melbourne Australia, surprise surprise...it's not available. And away you go.

Amazing. Tons of airports, hundreds of feeds. The guy below said it doesn't have tullamarine which is true in the case of the tower and approach etc but The moorabbin feed plus the Australia satellite feed have heaps of frequencies on them including the center frequencies all around Melbourne so it's far from non existant. If you are an aviation enthusiast this will blow your mind.

Adds on. Need to improve to add interesting recording from the original website and ability to listen to the archives

Great app. Have been using it for years. Highly recommended!

Not bad but…. … I want to listen to the tower at YMEN and YMMB but separately. Need to split the channels because to listen to these two you also have to tune into Melbourne centre, YMML, and every other frequency in area 30 it seems. Great app otherwise, really easy to use and no bullsh&#t.

YSSY not working. Can you guys fix YSSY , please ? Awesome app

Great updates. One of my favorite apps of all time. Great to see it updated after a year or so, the need to reinstall favorite channels while is painful but it’s short term pain for long term gain. Well done guys! :)

Perfect. Been using this app before it was even an app! (on PC). Perfect for anything your looking for. It does seem to loose airport connections in bed weather.... Either that or it's a coincidence. Other than that, faultless!

Mr. Great app, not quite 100% live, but that is understandable. Only issue with it is the extremely low volume. iPad volume is full, even plugged into speakers with volume full it is far too quiet. Please consider fixing this in an update and it would gain another star. Cheers

Great!!Great app!. Great app. Love it! Please find a way of getting more company feeds? Please consider finding a way that we can listen to spesific frequentcies.

Australian LiveATC. This app rocks! I'm a GA pilot out of Brisbane [YBBN] This app gives me the opportunity to hear whos up there when I'm on the ground in my office or car. Commuting all over Oz I spend a lot of time at airports waiting. Now Brisbane has a new 'always up' feed, I can sit in the club and listen to all the action I'm seeing airside. There's Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth [YSSY, YMML YPAD & YPPH]. This app would be great for enthusiasts too. Looking up at that jet on final... you will be able to know exactly what their up to! Love it! Six Stars!!!!!! especially the Brisbane [YBBN] feed ...

Cool app!. For an avgeek like myself, this is an awesome app! Just downloaded it a few minutes ago and there is so much to play around with. Congrats, guys, on this exciting app! 5/5 rating from me. 😊

Best App Ever. Couldn't live without this on my iPhone, as well as FlightTrack Pro and Flight Board. This App is a must have for aero plane enthusiasts! Live, accurate upgrades from many airports around the world, who wouldn't want this! And under $5. Love it. Giving this 5/5.

ATC Live ...great app. Well done application very happy and money well spent. The fact that YSSY does not appear is because it is not currently hosted. I would guess the update will appear again as soon as it is available to host again. I love this ..thank you. Just the best

Works ok - issue when switching apps, Change Channels button disappears.. Need to close an restart app.

No reply when asking a query. Very disappointed we have requested several times asking when YBBN Brisbane will be up again, we simply don’t get any reply!

LiveATC. Very stable app that delivers on it's promises. Well worth it if you a aviation buff or frequent traveller who wants to kill time in the lounge wondering what's going on outside. Who need a radio scanner when you have LiveATC.

Great! But.... This app is a great idea and works well, but it would be my favourite app if you added Melbourne intl (YMML) because you have perth, adelaide, sydney, can't remember if brisbane does but you only have Moorabin in Melbourne which is boring. So please add Melbourne airport. Thanks.

Great. As a frequent flyer this grabs my attention. It's interesting to listen too,especially when combined with a plane tracking app! You can listen to tower and see your plane, outstanding.

Amazing. TOO GOOD If we’re to add anything I would add some bars next to the channels showing the speech of the channel

Live atc. This is an amazing app, I love it (I use it while on plane finder), just one request can you please fix the perth airport ground, it says that there is approach, tower, ground and departure, everything else works but ground! Thanks

Awesome app to use however. I don’t like the audio quality, if that could be improved just to understand thing a bit more clear that would be perfect

Needs improvement. Could you please please make this app compatible with the IPad or at least make one for the iPad, also need to fix the speed when you click on an area it is so slow to connect

I love it!. With airport layout and frequencies only a tap away, you can't go past this amazing app! All airports I've listened to our of very high quality. Thanks!

Disappointing. Most of my designated airport communications are ‘down’. Keep trying to connect but I just keep getting a generic ’sorry. We are working on it’. Disappointed so far & not worth paying for either.

Fantastic. The only addition I would like to see is the ability to record

Needs a fix for Australia. Guys - good app except your website lists Canberra as being 'up' and available for the app, but once you buy the app, canberra is not offered or available. Bit poor for a paid app. Hardly worth suing for false advertising though for 3 bucks.....

Split channels. Would be better if there were only 1 channel rather than multi frequencies playing at same time. It would make it easier to follow conversations on one frequency

My Hobby has come to the iPhone. Been a scanner of the airbands for years. So glad now 'there's an app for that!' too. works nicely can simply. Now I can always have a scanner in my pocket. Great job! And yes, Heathrow please and Changi as well whilst you're at it.

Lacking. I bought this App to listen to ATC at my local airport which is Moorabbin in Melbourne Australia. This is the biggest GA airport in the whole state and the leading training airport in Australia. This app can’t even see that the airport exists. Very disappointing.

Great App but now having problems. I used this app to assist me with Class C and D airspace radio terminology, however now it won't load and it's now useless, any advise please would be good

Jet watcher. This is an awesome app! There is no waiting forever to hear your favorite airport, it just connects and has a seamless coverage. I highly recommend downloading this app!

Why won't Brisbane work?. Brisbane airport won't work and hasn't for months. Can you please fix this soon

Happy chappy. It does the job. Until now I used "aviation radio" with limited suxcces due to "line of sight" limits. It sounds like a real radio. BUT It does not cover my airport (YPJT) busiest general aviation airpot in the Southern Hemisphere. However it gives you pleanty of worldwide airports. I reckon it is a great idea and worth while product. At this price a bargain. Great for new pilots or even the one who getting higher quall. such as IFR. It seems thought, that more then one frequency is covered which makes hard to follow the sequence.. But thats only me.

I have a favorite new toy!. Fantastic app - great selection of countries and airports - always very clear and definitely fits its description. The best thing about it is that air traffic radio operates at a very low bandwidth, so it doesn't chew through your internet usage at all! I listen for 30 minutes and its around 5MB. Great fun, easy to use and oh so fun!

Nesh. Great program Sydney is clear and understandable ... Only annoyance is it won't work with just a 3G connection requires Internet connectivity. Any chance of the program using 3G connection aswell as the free website already does ?

Essendon Airport Victoria Australia. I’m not happy with Essendon Airport frequencies being down for a very long time. Why hasn’t this been fixed?

YSBU. Why won't Sunshine Coast airport work, can this be fixed

Keeps crashing. With iphone 12 ios 16.3 the app keeps crashing and turning off regularly might be good for an update

Works great. Not sure why others can't get it working. Worked for me straight out of the box for Brisbane. Does exactly what I expected it to. Like being able to see the planned route too. Thanks!

Great app!. Great app. I am a student pilot and this app is very helpful to me.

This app is junk. Should be zero stars Bought it for yyz and all feeds are down Please refund purchase

Great Aviation Enthusiast's App. This is a great app for pilots and aviation enthusiasts. I tell all aspiring pilots to listen how the professional pilots communicate with ATC for a great learning experience!

YOW Not Working. I loved the App used it twice then the Ottawa feed stopped working

Love this app!!!. Awesome app! I love listening in to Airports around me. I wish that my local airport (Collingwood) was on the app.

Very cool app!. I'm using this app for over 2 years now. Really good tool to get familiar with proper aviation radio-phraseology. Works very well ... Would like to have an apple watch app for it too.- Please !!

Great App. This is a great app. A lot of channels to select from.

ATC. Why most of the airports in Africa not covered?

Amazing App. This is an amazing app!!! I have never had a problem.

Great. Now this is an app that delivers what is says. Works great and easy to use.

Overall it's ok. I broadcast two feeds on here. Overall, it's one of the best air traffic control feeds out there, compared to the other less advanced feeds. One of my two feeds doesn't always stay on after 7 minutes, but my other feed, I can leave it on for the whole day with no problems. It's perfect for on the go and at home. Sometimes it disconnects and reconnects, but that's just a minor inconvenience. I do recommend it for anyone else. The weather METARS take more than a half hour to update too.

Excellent!. Amazing and awesome app!

Great App. I love listing to ATC very cool. Would recommend to anyone who is into aviation.

Great app need more airports. Please add Kathamndu airport

Awesome!. I just really enjoy it!

vert impressed. i live in Montreal CYUL, what i like the most is that you can plug in the power and still listen to it with the screen off! great app and a key to mastering the radio when piloting an aircraft. good job!

Great App. To start, I’m a private pilot. I use this LiveATC constantly on my computer to listen to my home base (CYQG) while I’m not at the airport. Just found out that there was an app, and I love how I can listen to this on my phone, and better yet in the background while doing other things on my phone. Great app!

AWESOME...but. Will only give it 5/5 stars if you fix CYKZ. It always says it's unavailable. Other than that it's freakin' awesome!

Boss app. Nice app .. Toronto YYZ is working perfect .. Would love to see some Indian airports too . No complaints. My dream is to fly 777 .. Lol

Don't buy. Tried for 1 hour to find one channel anywhere that worked. All were "unavailable". I should be given a refund. This app is a fraud.

Yyc outdated. the airport map is outdated by atleast 2years, doesn't show the new 14,000 ft runway

Awww. I can't hear anything.

Does not work on iPhone 5 / iOS 7.1.2. Just quits after splash screen

Good program. Listen to live ATC. A good program but not enough Canadian airports.

Great app. Was crashing in a recent update (due to Apple) but it been fixed rapidly. Nice job LiveATC!

Used to be good!. Toronto airport has been down for days now.

Right on Time. This App is excellent i didnt have to use my scanner you cover my interest of countries U.S and Canada and West Indies and Europe thanks so much.

Local airport not available. I am upset that Hamilton airport is not available, but a much smaller (Burlington) is available. Any way of getting Hamilton added to the list?

Does what it says. Does what it says listen to various ATC channels. Interface isn't the prettiest and buffering takes a while even on LTE

ATC App. As a flight attendant it's a very cool app to have. I really enjoy it and have recommended it to all of my friends. It would be cool to see the Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson (YWG) international airport on there though.

Nice app. Nice app

Lock Screen Controls Issue. While I can stop streaming from the Lock Screen controls, I cannot restart streaming from same. In order to do so, I have to go through the app.

Excellent. Rock solid product and really useful, especially if I don't have my scanner with me. Worth the modest investment, and lasts longer than a small latte for same price!!

Disappointed - app offers much less than the free website. First, the UX is one of the worst I’ve seen so far. Favorites are almost useless, looking for a station is not a great experience and above all, there is no archive available. I should not have paid for the app… disappointed:(

nice application. I like the application it gives me most areas of the airports to listen to. I even can listen to far away airports like HOng Kong, Buenos Aires even France. Suggestion to offer airport map of the runways for each major airports

No archive access. I bought the application to listen to archive on my phone, but the app doesn’t offer this option, even if it is possible on their website.

It works in the background!. Just what I was looking for, the audio still works when the app is in the background. Now I can browse the web or watch FlightRadar while listening to ATC. I couldn’t do that with the browser version of LiveATC.net.

Not great. Let’s see if this review stays. I posted another with 1star it disappeared. I purchased this app 2 months ago. I live in CYZF. It doesn’t work 90% of the time I get channel down notice. It’s garbage.

Werid. I have an iphone 4 and an iPad mini i can get cyeg on my iPad but not phone fix it

Not very happy. Most airport connections are really poor. Can’t connect. Not recommended to buy.

Tower @ YYZ Toronto, Ontario not working. The tower feed from the control tower doesn't work, only the arrival works. I would like to listen to the tower feed as well. Not happy with that.

Worked perfectly!. I found this app extremely easy to use, and it has worked perfectly every time I have opened it.

Works well but.... Needs Heathrow and Gander. Record function would be nice too for the price.

CYYZ. CYYZ works perfectly as of this posting if any curious possible purchasers wondered. Like the app for what it is. Kinda ugly, but that's not a major flaw.

Very Good Buy!. It's a great app, but ever since the update a lot of feeds were removed, including some I like to listen to.

NICE!!!... please add CYTZ!!. Great app!!!... Please add "Billy Bishop" City Center airport CYTZ!... it is very busy now with Porter Airlines! Thanks!

Great App. I took this to Las Vegas and had a hotel room overlooking the airport. It was interesting to hear the tower as I was overlooking the airfield. I really love this app as I'm a former pilot and miss the tower chatter!

Music to my ears. I can't believe I only found out about this app. It is an essential app for the aviation enthusiast. As another reviewer mentioned, YYZ does indeed work perfectly!

A1. Fonctionne à merveille pour Montréal YUL

Y Q B. Voici quelque ajustement que ce cité devrais faire 1: la piste 12/30 a changer pour la 11/29 et le diagramme des voie de circulation à changer il y a un nouveau delta donc le plan de l'aéroport de Québec a boucoup changer et le son est toujours tro bas comparativement à d'autre écouter merci

Learning tool. This app has greatly helped me improve My radio communications and made me get Better grades in aviation school. I focus usually on my local region. Or I listen to other airports that I’m planning to fly into.

Plane lover. I can only give you four stars because I can’t tune in Fullerton tower, even though it says station is up. John Wayne tower, on the other hand, tunes in great. Your thoughts, please. Thank you.

Streaming. Quick Shut out to the programmers. Thanks for working on the streaming. That has always been something that has plagued me.

Won’t shut off. I didn’t use it very much. It worked fine. It would be a cool app except it won’t turn off - even if I close the app! The only way to turn it off was to delete it. I’ll try it again when they fix that bug.

App needs work. The app is a huge let down. Takes forever to lock onto the frequency and constantly kicks you out. I can only listen to KFTW tower by my place for a few minutes before it stops working. Huge improvement needed, I suggest going with an old fashioned scanner if you want to truly listen in.

Buy this already. Perfect if you are a plane spotter or if you just have an airport near you or if you just enjoy aviation.

Gets the job done. Pretty nifty app, and definitely works as advertised with no hiccups. Part of me wishes it were prettier but I'm just glad somebody is filling this niche and scratching my itch for atc :)

Update Problems. I don't understand why your new update deleted a majority of the frequencies on the app that I actually used. KMCO had a good 8 channels and now there's only two. I used to use KISM for their information since it's a local airport, now I cannot. I paid for the full version, it was great, all the way up until yesterday when it decided to update and remove everything. Please fix this....

Not bad, volume won’t go up. Worked really good for the first three years or so that I had it and suddenly the volume won’t go up! Can’t hear it, deleting app. Tried contacting support, keeps saying my e mail is invalid?

Needs Interesting Recordings. I only visit the website to listen to the Interesting Recordings section. Awful to listen in mobile browser, wish this app had access to it.

Pilot Review. To preface this review, I'm a pilot and know what ground, tower, and center radio should sound like. I, like most customers, purchased this app for one airport. The frequency is 99% static and 1% actual communication. For all I know this is some random communication from the 70's with static played very loudly over it. You can't understand a single word. Please don't waste your money like I did.

Amazing just a request. Love your app it works amazingly I just wanted to suggest adding Lihue airport. I travel through this airport a lot and would love to have it included. Thanks!

More locations. I wish they would put Metter or riedsville airport in Georgia in the search engine so I could listen to my friends and dad.

Decent. It’s alright, but it often goes down. It would be less of a concern if it was free, but a paid app shouldn’t have such issues. Many channels simply don’t work and it’s disappointing. The UI is rather outdated as well and not particularly user friendly. Overall, great idea but poor execution.

Now why does it do that 🤔. So KPHX is my home base and I listen frequently. But I have noticed that at night I can only hear ATC and not the pilots …why is that?

Won’t stay on frequency. I like the app but it just doesn’t stay on, it just keeps stopping and I have to keep hit the play button over and over and buffering way to much just to hear traffic, needs massive improvement and someone who actually knows what they’re doing

Works great. I’m a student pilot and I was about to buy a radio transceiver to practice radio communication, but I’ve found this app that works great. You will not regret the purchase. Go for it

Opening UI Screen worse. This program functionality is still great. LiveATC remains the "go to" app for aviation buffs. The The overall UI seems less polished then previous versions. Particularly noticeable is the opening screen, that is more crude then the more polished versions of the past.

Please Update with Archived ATC Audio. This is a great app, but I would like to see the archived audio option so that I can critique my own ATC comms after flying.

Not worth more than $1. I thought this app would be pretty cool to listen to ATC however many airports are not listed and the ones that are listed are not available to listen to. If more was available to listen to it would be great but it would be even better if the ones that are listed would work. Not worth the money I threw away getting it.

Very nice. Great app just would be nice if the ability to listen to recording archives was available like the website. Other than that the app is fantastic

Thank you for making this app!. As a rusty pilot I find this app so helpful and easy to listen to real time transmissions. This is the best and only solo way I have found to easily practice ATC comms. Many thanks!

Stop working after a few minutes. The reason I downloaded the e app was because the web version keeps stopping after a few minutes of transmission and for my (bad) surprise the app is the same . Very frustrated.

I like the app but hoped for better. I love the app, I am just a little disappointed because I can’t select my local airport even though it is an international airport. Other from that, This is a great app

Great app!. I’d love to be able to listen in on more airports, such as those who don’t have atc. I know it might be hard, but as a student pilot who flies out of an uncontrolled airport, I’d like the chance to be able to hear more on the uncontrolled airport side.

Time for an update eh?. This software was last updated in 2015, time for an update pleeeeeeeease. Thanks. 5 stars for the fact that it's live atc and it works.

Nice app. Like the app wish there was a time out duration setting. Having to restart the stream after every 5-8ish minutes is a little frustrating.

Not very good. As a real 121 airline pilot I purchased this app to track other flights, you can not set a frequency to listen to such as departure or Center frequency's there is a list of airports with some frequencies, but there is no way to track a flight along the whole route. If you want to listen to random ATC it is ok. But that is it. I should have saved $4.50.

Lose frequency too often. I'd recommend fixing frequency loss. I wouldn't mind so much if it was a free app....but when I pay for it, it shouldn't drop like this. When it's up, it's great to listen to, especially when watching the planes on Flight Aware (free app) at the same time!! Try it!

Great App but won’t shut off!. I listen via Bluetooth in my vehicle. Turn off vehicle, turn off app...come back at night and the app is immediately on my radio via Bluetooth! Only way to stop this is to cycle power on the phone. So is this thing sucking data the whole day?

Functional and works as advertised!. I love the app, been using it on multiple devices for the last months. Best one I've come across thus far.

Bravo. like it. but it needs something. I love it I’m a big plane fan and I love it just needs one thing automatically switch to the next channel. But other than that it’s a great app

CVG Airport was not on the list. Not happy with App. I was at CVG airport viewing and saw the sign to download this app while I was there with the kids. So I thought this would be good for the kids to hear and I bought the app. well, once it downloaded, CVG was not even a option. This was very misleading, considering the sign even says to type in CVG. I spend $4.00 for nothing. I tried to contact the APP, but could not find any info! What a WASTE!

Not working for the past three weeks. I love this app and use it all the time. For the past three weeks every time I press play it air traffic control and then goes back to the play button. I have a race it off my phone and download again several times to no avail. Please fix!

Excellent for student pilots or pilots working on Instrument. Love the new update! I’m an active pilot working on my IFR rating, live ATC is a great way to listen to live ATC in a great variety of locations, it’s an excellent learning tool. Highly recommend!

Great app. I personally want to be part of an act crew and learning all of the callouts and phonetic alphabet is great in this apps software, so if you are leaning towards downloading this app I wouldn’t hesitate to do so.

I had a long review that wouldn’t post. Just know that I’m a brand new ATC operator and my boss uses it to listen in on the ATC facility when she’s not in. This app is pretty cool, feed is pretty spot on to what we hear in our headsets from the pilots, OI is easy to use. 8.5/10 would recommend

Constant disconnects. This has been a great app. Recently though the app constantly disconnects and I need to manually restart it after a text or email arrives on my iPhone X. I use the Pro app and hopefully developers can resolve this. I do have autostart set on.

Great app but needs more airports. I love this app for virtual plane spotting on Flightradar24, but when I want to listen to London towers, or any European towers, it doesn’t give me the option to. It only does Asia, North America, South America, and the Middle East, not anywhere in Europe

Works but... As others had stated. One day after purchase of this app my local airport was removed... this can't possibly be planned. It still works for major airports though. Wish they didn't charge for something that doesn't fully do what it advertises.

Good app. I don’t get the low score and bad reviews. The app is good and works as it should. I didn’t buy it before because of the low score but I wish I did.

HELP. NO WAY TO CONTACT THE DEVELOPER That I can find! Not even through their website! I would like to be able to change the name after saving stations to my favorites, can't see any way of doing that. If the developer will contact me or make provisions for me to contact them, I would be glad to change my rating from one star!!!

Great app. Pretty good app. Only complaint is that it's only live you can't listen back to what your saying when you are flying but aside from that it's good

Audio. I really like the app however, a lot of times it’s hard to hear what the pilots are saying and it’s a little frustrating. Can you fix this please?

Awesome product. No problems whatsoever. Been using for many years

Ok ... but latest version not working now for local exec airport. Before could easily access and listen to KHND, Henderson, NV Executive Airport ground and tower ... it connects now but no sound on iPhone or iPad, or via the website....

Would be my dream app.... ... if you could somehow tag an airplane and automatically follow them through the various towers and channels as they are being handed over! =:-O But I love the app already!

Does a good job. Not sure what the negative reviews are about. I use the app and haven’t had any problems. It does what it says it will do. I like it so far.

Love it, but it is so quiet. I love This app however it is so quiet I have to turn my volume in my car almost all the way up to hear it. Then when I get a text it’s like a sonic boom went off in my car.

Multiple air ports? Only 1 frequency at a time?. I remember 10 years ago when I first knew of this site that on my laptop I could get multiple channels for the entire airport. I wouldn’t have purchased it
