What it does

Follows your flight using the phone's GPS in flight mode, or your own taps: taxi, take-off, climb, cruise, descent, approach and landing, with what each noise and movement means, distance and time to go, guided slow breathing and a summary of how you felt.

Individual app: each person uses it with their own account; your flight and your notes are private to you and saved to your account, and the optional GPS reading uses your own device's position.

How to use it

  1. On the My flight tab, type a city, airport or code in From and To and pick the airport from the list: the app shows the straight-line distance and an estimated flight time.
  2. If you know them, enter your own Flight time (h:mm) and the Take-off time (optional) so the progress bar can count down by the clock.
  3. During the day, tap the phase you are in (At the gate, Taxi, Take-off, Climb, Cruise, Descent, Approach, Landing, Arrived), or press Use GPS to let the app detect it; press Stop GPS to switch it off.
  4. For each phase, read the description, the list under What you may hear and feel, and the tip below it.
  5. Under How do you feel now? tap a number from 0 (calm) to 10 (very anxious); it is noted for the current phase.
  6. Whenever you feel tense, open the Breathe tab and press Start: breathe in for 4 seconds and out for 6 while the circle moves; press Stop to end.
  7. After landing, open How I felt to see your anxiety by phase, the hardest and calmest moments; press New flight twice to clear everything for your next trip.
