byAir vs. Flighty
A complete travel companion — on every platform.
Flighty is a beautifully designed iPhone-first flight tracker. byAir is built for travelers who need modern flight tracking across every platform — and more control around the trip itself.
Looking for Flighty on Android? byAir offers native apps for Android, iOS, Apple Watch, and Wear OS, with the same account and flight history across devices.
The bigger difference is what happens around the flight. byAir can auto-scan connected Gmail and Outlook mailboxes, assign trip purpose per mailbox, parse flights from PDFs, screenshots, boarding passes, and ticket photos with Quick Scan, store travel documents, surface baggage and airline guidance, and keep family or key contacts updated.
Both apps cover serious flight tracking: live updates, delay alerts, inbound aircraft, and flight history. Flighty is especially strong if you live fully in the Apple ecosystem. byAir is the better fit if you want a modern personal flight tracker that also works as a broader travel system.
Great flight tracking. Smarter trip handling. Every platform.
