FlyRec Pro: Advanced Flight Tracking for Frequent Flyers
FlyRec Pro is a premium version of the FlyRec flight-recording app designed for frequent flyers, business travelers, and aviation enthusiasts who want deeper tracking, smarter insights, and stronger organization for their trips.
Key Features
- Automatic flight detection: Detects takeoff and landing automatically using sensor fusion (GPS + barometer + motion data) to create accurate flight segments without manual input.
- Detailed trip logs: Stores airline, flight number, aircraft type, departure/arrival airports, scheduled vs. actual times, gate info, and taxi/airborne durations.
- Live flight status & notifications: Real-time updates on delays, cancellations, gate changes, and arrival status with push alerts.
- Advanced analytics: Monthly and yearly summaries of miles flown, time in air, on-time performance, carbon footprint estimates, and loyalty program tracking.
- Custom tagging & organization: Tag trips by purpose (business, leisure), client, project, or custom labels; build searchable folders and collections.
- Automatic expense snapshots: Capture boarding passes and ticket receipts; auto-extract flight cost, carrier, dates, and PNR for expense reports.
- Integration & export: Sync with calendar apps, Apple/Google Wallet, TripIt, and major expense platforms. Export CSV, PDF trip reports, or connect via API.
- Offline mode & encrypted backups: Record flights offline and sync later; end-to-end encrypted backups for premium security.
- Multi-device sync & family plans: Sync across phone, tablet, and web; share family or team travel under one plan with role controls.
- Priority support & concierge: Faster customer support, onboarding help, and optional travel concierge services for frequent flyers.
