Hello everyone,

 

I would like to introduce a mobile app that I made called VATSCAN, an app that displays live VATSIM information on a map and list with a modern and interactive UI. I have released it as public beta on the Android Play Store and it will be released for iOS in the near future as well.

 

https://vatscan.stratospherelabs.io/

 

VATSCAN is completely free and open-source with many more features planned to be added.

 

Download it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stratospherelabs.vatscan

 

Please feel free to suggest new features or improvements here.

 

Thanks!

Hi Ethan,

 

thanks a lot for your program! I just installed it and it works nicely!

 

Will you implement filters for airports of departure/arrival?

 

I tried to exit the APP by by double clicking the return-button, but the program did not close. Is this intentional?

Thank you so much for this new app!

 

Will use it heavily going forward and look forward to see how it will further mature with more features being added to it etc

One thing that would be super useful is being able to see information about online ATC.

 

Such as freq, ATIS for controlled airports etc.

 

If you haven't already, do check out Vattastic which is a great web-based service for some ideas for your app.

This is a great program one thing I noticed though.

 

When the Edmonton ATC (CZEG) is online the blue shape file gets cut off partially. The outline is still there but the filled in shape file only covers the southern half of the province.

 

Love the program nice to have that sitting on my phone while i'm flying.

Ethan - On an Android tablet using this from the google Play store. The aircraft icons are really too big. Can you scale them down as the user zooms in on the map?

Source code is available at https://github.com/SuperCheese21/vatscan 

Maybe somebody could take a look and see if it requires much work to get it run

Do you want your Virtual Airline to become an official partner on VATSIM or to participate in the VAA Program?
