Flight Tracker+: first-time user experience analysis

Flight Tracker+ makes a strong first impression with a clean UI and clear utility, especially around flight coverage and Apple Watch integration. However, the onboarding flow pushes conversion and permissions too early—review requests, paywalls, and tracking prompts appear before users fully experience the core value. Despite this, the free tier remains usable with non-intrusive ads, creating a fair value exchange. Overall, it’s a solid product that would benefit from slowing down monetization to build trust first.

Initial app open. First impression is solid: modern, clean, and it immediately feels useful.

Access to all flights. Great—full flight coverage right away is a strong value prop.

Apple Watch focus. The screen highlights Watch notifications, but the side mockups also suggest a full Apple Watch app. That’s a nice surprise and a strong motivator to continue.

Review prompt. Asking for a review on the fourth screen feels way too early. I haven’t seen any real value yet—this risks annoying users instead of converting them.

Paywall. I can start a free trial, which is good. Pricing feels high though—more than a Netflix subscription on a weekly basis. That said, being able to close the paywall via the “X” is a plus.

Tracking permission. The tracking prompt is handled smartly. As a typical user, I assume agreeing will improve personalization. Still, it leans slightly toward a dark-pattern interpretation.

Privacy settings. Mandatory in the EU, so no surprises here.

Location permission. Makes total sense for this app to function properly. Straightforward and expected.

Notification permission. Asking right after I’ve already agreed to several permissions in a row might be strategic, but I’d prefer more context—what kind of notifications will I get, and why should I enable them?

Ads for free users. As a non-pro user, I see ads in several views. That’s clearly tied to the earlier tracking permission. The upside: core features are still usable, and the ads aren’t intrusive. It’s a fair trade-off—I get value for free, and the developer earns revenue until I upgrade or churn.

A really well-thought-out onboarding, but… what was it actually about?

The onboarding is visually polished and thoughtfully designed, with some genuinely enjoyable moments, but it introduces too much friction too early. Key permissions, account creation, and pricing appear before the app clearly explains its value, which creates confusion and weakens trust. By the time the user finally sees a concrete plan and understands what the app actually does, they’ve already been asked to commit, pay, and invite friends—making the experience feel well-executed, yet poorly sequenced.

Analysis by Wojciech Olszewski

I work with mobile apps, focusing on marketing, monetization, and product decisions. I'm interested in how things work in practice — not just how they're described in best practices. Through InApp.Center, I share observations and analyses based on real app experience.
