You're a Drone Pilot and concerned about nearby traffic? Enable traffic monitoring based on range to be alerted of any approaching aircraft.
Enhance your situational awareness with live traffic, weather and flight information displayed directly in 3rd party apps supporting the GDL90 protocol (e.g. AvareX, iFlyGPS, FltPlanGo and DroidEFB).
Harness the capabilities of your Software Defined Radio device (RTL-SDR) to capture live Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADSB) data. With ADSB Receiver, you'll have access to:
-Aircraft Positions: Track the movements of nearby aircraft, including altitude, speed and heading.
-Weather Data: Stay informed with official NEXRAD weather images (using a GDL90 capable app), plus aviation reports like METAR, PIREP, WINDS and more.
Supported Hardware
Rafael Micro R820T and R820T2 based tuners.

enjoying the app. works fine but when I use my avare navigation local sectional I lose the valuable airspeed/altitude info. I see numbers but it must be a code that makes no sense to me. this information is there on adsb receiver pro but not when I go to my local sectional. maybe I'm missing something? otherwise would be useful in the air.

This app has been great! It has enabled me to use the inexpensive and reliable FlightAware receiver with my tablet to put traffic on the moving map display. I have used the paid version regularly for a couple years now and when problems arose the owner of the app stepped up to keep it going.

Pro version generally works great but a big annoyance; if no packets, app stops listening after 10 cycles of 19 seconds - or 190 seconds. There is an option to restart the app after every 30 seconds of non-reception but the restart cycle starts after only 19 seconds and reception is not active again until 11 more seconds. That means one third of the time the app is not listening for packets so also not usable. Please add an option to let it run for hours even if no packets!

I bought the Pro version. I connected both an ADSB 1090 SDR with antenna and filter and a UAT 978 SDR with antenna and filter SDR on a usb hub. Could only use 1 at a time and the UAT SDR packet collection is less sensitive when the ADSB SDR is connected as opposed to the other way round. Would wonder if the driver can attach to 2 SDRs simultaneously to collect 1090 and 978

got the trial version and had a bit of trouble getting it going. The app it self installed as it should but because I was using an antenna that was too long I didn't recieve any thing. I switched to a short telescopic antenna and left it retracted. @ 5 inches total length and turned it horizontal. I seem to be limited to a 50 to 70 mile radius but I'm at the bottom of a good size valley. The developer replied to my comments in under an hr.

No Chromebook version! No way to download to install to use on the device after paying for it!!! Works ok for what it is on phones, can't hear anything, just GPS/Weather reports of planes. For a pro version, I'd fully expect all of these features!

Good app! I have no problems with map, logging and interface. But work with RTL-SDR should have some improvement: if ADS-B source is strong (you are onboard or near by) hardware AGC doesn't work well, signal overloads ADC or DSP and software can not decode packets. Resolved this problem by removing antenna. Just receive signal without any antenna attached, stable work for two hours. One of the possible solutions will be to add "Gain" option, another — implement software AGC Thanks for your work

Tried using it on a device running android 10 Go. App won’t let me start without the “display over other apps” function enabled. 10 Go does not have the “display over other apps” feature, google removed it from 10 Go, or at least disabled it at the root level. Are there any workarounds to bypass the display over other apps requirement that do not require root permissions?
