Worldwide, per day, and installs to date. The band is open; the exact number is free with an account.
How this is calculated
Apple publishes no download counts. iPhone downloads come from chart positions and daily rating growth per country, calibrated on Google Play install counts; lifetime installs from ratings worldwide × installs per rating. Confidence is the chance the real number is within half to double ours.
Active users

About fDeck: flight instruments
fDeck turns your iPhone or iPad into a working aircraft instrument panel - a graphically beautiful flight deck for your pocket, with live weather, real ADS-B traffic, a flight planner and a powerful radio-navigation trainer.
Trusted by 50,000+ pilots, student pilots and flight-sim enthusiasts worldwide. 100% ad-free.
A FULL PANEL OF INSTRUMENTS
Every instrument is hand-crafted to look and behave like the real thing - responsive, animated, and controlled with intuitive touch. Mix and match any combination to build your own flight deck:
• Synthetic Vision (Vision PFD)
• Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI)
• VOR receiver
• Automatic Direction Finder (ADF)
• Artificial Horizon
• Altimeter (GPS/Baro)
• Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI)
• Aircraft compass with heading bug
• Groundspeed indicator
• Chronometer with fuel totaliser
• Live weather & wind, with TAF/METAR in raw or decoded form
Every instrument has its own built-in video tutorial.
LEARN TO NAVIGATE
Pan your aircraft anywhere on the map and watch every instrument respond in real time. Tune any VOR, NDB or radio aid from a worldwide database - or build your own virtual navaids to practise tracking radials, intercepts and holds. The best radio-navigation trainer you can carry.
PLAN YOUR FLIGHT
Build a flight plan and slave any instrument to it. Waypoints transition automatically as you fly, so every needle keeps pointing exactly where it should - no re-tuning between legs.
FLY WITH CONFIDENCE
• Worldwide aviation database: 20,000+ airports and navaids, updated monthly
• Aviation moving map with airspace, airports and navaids
• Optional 5/10/20NM range rings and enhanced radial lines
• Live ADS-B traffic with a built-in traffic avoidance (TCAS) system
• Tag your own aircraft registration to silence alerts on yourself
• Export your tracks as GPX or KML
FOR YOUR HOME COCKPIT
Drive the instruments straight from X-Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator via the flight simulation connection, and turn any device into a secondary instrument panel.
