At the iPhone event in September, Apple gave a first look at innovations in the flight tracking app Flightly.

The update adds support for Live Activities and Dynamic Island.

What can we expect from the Flightly app update?

When using the Flightly app, a live activity for an upcoming flight will automatically start three hours before departure. Flight status including delays and gate changes can be easily viewed on the lock screen and Dynamic Island on iPhone 14 Pro.

Live Activity support is available for all iPhone models running iOS 16.1. The current flight is always displayed as a visible widget on the lock screen and in the notification center.

Flight tracking in Dynamic Island

iPhone 14 Pro users benefit from the Live Activity UI and Dynamic Island. The live activities are also displayed in the dimmed “Always on lock screen” state.

In Flightly contains all important information about the flight such as the ETA, gate, seat number and other data. Even if the iPhone 14 Pro is not connected to the internet, the flight status will be updated after take-off.

The compact Dynamic Island interface displays a countdown from takeoff to landing. If something important happens, the live activity banner will expand accordingly for the user, ensuring that the user is aware of all flight details.
