Squawk watches the sky for you. Its alert engine runs in the cloud, so a push lands on your Lock Screen when something worth seeing comes near — even if you haven't opened the app in days.

Ads

No ads. Not now, not ever. No banners between you and the sky, no "watch this to unlock", no selling who you are. Squawk is paid for one way: people who choose Pro.

✓

Zero ads in the app

Free users included. The free tier is the full live map, not a billboard.

✓

No advertising ID

We never ask to track you across apps, because we don't.

✓

No data brokers

We don't sell your data, and we don't resell the community flight feeds.

✓

Location stays put

Used on your phone for the map and AR. Only what an alert needs, like the area you set, goes to our server.

The details are in plain English in our privacy policy.

Moon & Sun crossings New

Catch a plane crossing the Moon

Squawk predicts when an aircraft will fly across the face of the Moon from exactly where you're standing — then counts you down and points you to it.FREE

  1. Predicted from where you stand — live aircraft positions plus your precise location
  2. Countdown + direction — “≈16 s · look east, ≈39° up”
  3. Point your phone — AR guides you to the Moon and the aircraft
Predictions are approximate (≈) and never guarantee you'll see one. The Sun works too — never look at it without a certified solar filter. Crossing alerts are part of Squawk Pro.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Are there ads?
No — not in the free version, not in Pro, not ever. Squawk is paid for by Pro subscriptions, nothing else. No advertising identifier, no data brokers.
Where does the flight data come from?
Community-run, unfiltered ADS-B networks, contributed by people running their own receivers and shared under open licences. If a transponder broadcasts it, you'll see it.
Do alerts work with the app closed?
Yes. The alert engine runs server-side and delivers native push notifications even if you haven't opened the app in days. The free tier includes one alert zone that pushes; Pro adds unlimited zones plus military-base movement, rare-aircraft and worldwide emergency-squawk alerts.
Is my location tracked?
No continuous tracking, no ads in the app, no analytics brokers. Location is used on-device for the map and AR; proximity alerts store only the coordinates you choose. The only third-party measurement is Apple's anonymous SKAdNetwork install counting for our own App Store ads — no advertising identifier, no cross-app tracking. See the privacy policy.
What do I need for the ATC scanner?
Any radio scanner with audio out (a Uniden BC125AT works great) plus a USB audio interface into your iPhone. Transcription runs entirely on the phone.
Can I cancel Pro anytime?
Yes — it's a standard Apple subscription, managed in Settings › Apple ID › Subscriptions. Cancel anytime and keep Pro until the period ends.
