Popular iOS and Android app FlightRadar24 with more than 2 million downloads is coming to Windows Phone 8 soon.
The app turn your phone into an air traffic radar and lets you see airplane traffic around the world in real-time.
Apparently benefiting from the easy porting from Windows 8, where they have also released an app recently, the flight tracking app offers:
- Aircraft moving in real-time
- Augmented reality view – identify the planes flying overhead by simply pointing your phone’s camera to the sky
- Easy to search for a specific flight
- Filter by airline, altitude, speed and more
- Push notification alerts
- Flight trails and callsigns directly on map
- Possibility to show different aircraft icons, for different aircraft types
The app should be hitting the Windows Phone 8 store in 4-5 weeks.
Thanks Juned for the tip.
