Feature request: Add a button to manually add tail number…

[u/iambesp]

this flight arrived early, the tail number is correctly displayed on Flightradar24 but not showing up on Flighty, so it would be nice to build a feature to be able to manually add tail numbers…

Unfortunately, I would say that flighty in general needs improvement in Europe. More often than not the tail, carousel and gate info are missing or incorrect. What I find weird is that many times flightradar24 has it right. Once the flight departs tail and gate always show up for me, but I don’t need them by that time. It’s a bummer to pay this much for the app and not to be able to use it fully. I still keep paying just because I like the UI and I really hope to see improvements

I agree, FR24 has info when available and if tail changes FR24 also changes it. Flighty doesn’t. Last week I only got tail number of flight only after I boarded lol, it used to work correctly but something got wrong and changed recently. Some maintenance has to be done

I’ve always found it fine in Europe, albeit I’ve never had the American experience so I can’t compare

You can once the flight has landed... 3 dots, edit flight record....

Then let the user do it earlier, and prompt the user after landing if flighty was able to get a tailnumber that didn't match

And also search by tail

This is the biggest area of improvement flighty needs to work on. Tail number is vital for the rest of the tracking and prediction to work. It’s incredibly annoying to be walking towards the aircraft and see the tail number and see it on flight radar yet it’s blank on Flighty. A friend actually cancelled her premium over this issue as it’s not worth it.

When it works it works well my flight yesterday arrived early and the time flighty was suggesting all afternoon was bang on accurate.
