You may want to either remove those screenshots or obscure the AA record locator in them. Not suggesting that FT members have any nefarious means, but this is a public site.

I purchased and have been using FlightView for the past few months. It's OK and also has the option to receive confirmation notices so that it fills in the itinerary automatically (unlike Flight Track that required you to manually add flights). I found the FV widget annoying in that it only indicated that a flight was scheduled instead of actually displaying the time (Note: I see in one of the posts above that it does show the times. Don't why it doesn't for me). The other day, however, I paid more attention to the Kayak widget and noticed that it showed me the flights as well as the times (see screenshot. It shows the two widgets with FV sitting above the Kayak one)! Furthermore, when I followed the link back to the Kayak app, I was presented with a neat and clean graphic detailing both legs of my trip with the anticipated layover times (see other screenshot). Further investigation showed detailed terminal maps--down to the individual restaurant and shop level, weather info, ticket details, booking info, and even the link back to the email containing the confirmation info.
Long story short--I think I've found my Flight Track replacement! And it's even free! (I curious about Flight Update Pro but it has some stiff competition at this point)

But today we have a very good news from GOOGLE!
in apple app stor i find GOOGLE TRIPS.
To date it does not send notifications and news about the flight but it is really well done. I have a lot of confidence in google and I'm convinced that with the upcoming updates we will not miss anything! In the app menu there is also a section to send feedback to google team. Do it all to improve this free application!!!

I've done a bit of research and found mi Flight Track, which seems very similar to FTP and there is a sister app, mi Flight Board. Maybe not as great as FTP, but a close second maybe. The paid for version is a one-off £3.99 or you can buy a bundle of all the three mi Flight apps for £12.
I hope this is of help

I looked at the app and am befuddled at any comparison to Flight Track Pro.

For those using iPhones I would recommend Variflight-Live on Time app. It is free.

It has the flight tracking function that allows users to check real-time flight status, incl. :

---time of arrivals and departures

---take-off time

---landing time

In addition, it displays airport weather and time table info, aircraft type and age.

Very very good this app! it is very young, notifications don't work and other issues but they are on the right way =)

Not bad!

"flight tracker" has still been my default app (mainly for push notifications), with miFlightTrack for all the data (actual takeoff/runway landing, plane notifications"

But This one is aesthetically pleasing. Has some work to do, but liking what I see so far!

One thing my family has asked for that these apps haven't delivered on is the option to change settings to your current time zone. So if I'm flying DEN-ORD, the app would show the flight times all in eastern and not Mountain to Central.

Also - if you click on similar apps (or look from the same developer, "FEEYO.COM E-COMMERCE CORP" - there is a gold "pro" version, but in chinese. From the screenshots it looks like there is some additional content. I don't currently have 0.99, but wondering if someone could take one for the team and buy it and report back?

Does the The Flight Tracker by Impala Studos still support TripIt? For some reason it doesn't pick up TripIt even though the "button" is switched on..

I do not know if flight tracker is a good app. Customer support is really bad. Send suggestions and they will not answer you

I’m no longer able to keep a nice history of my flights like flight track pro.

But after getting burned by buying the old FlightTrack and then FlightTrack5 which was prettier but functionally worse and never really improved, I'm not sure.

Hi everyone, after searching for a flight tracking app to use after FlightTrack we decided to take it into our own hands and build the most powerful and beautiful app ourselves.

We are a group of designers, developers, and flight nerds creating @FlightyApp

To make sure we don’t only build what we want but also what you want it would help us a lot if you could take our 3 min survey on flightyapp.com. In doing so, you can gain beta access to our exciting new app and a chance to win free Flighty for life.

I didn't see it mentioned on your survey, but I'm much more inclined to pay a one time payment ($10-20) rather then a subscription model that everyone seems to be using now.

Actually I am having second thoughts. I would rather have this subscription based. This way, if the app won’t be what I hoped for, at least I will have less of rip-off feeling when I’ll be disappointed and I won’t renew the subscription. And I guess a subscription-based app will be a better incentive for the developer to keep it up.

I you continue having issues, the thread is currently located about a third of the way down on the first page of the Travel Tools menu.
