Overview

A closer look at Bumpwise: Flight Tracker.

Bumpwise estimates turbulence along a specific flight route rather than showing only weather at departure and arrival. Its forecast combines weather and aviation sources described by the developer, including NOAA models, pilot reports, advisories, winds aloft, flight schedules, and live aircraft position data. The app builds a corridor around the expected route and estimates when the aircraft will reach each area, producing a timeline and a 0-to-100 turbulence score, plus a separate score for the roughest section. This can help travelers understand a forecast before boarding, but turbulence conditions can change and model outputs are uncertain. Bumpwise is a planning reference, not operational aviation guidance; passengers should follow airline crew instructions and official flight information. The US App Store lists a free download, while optional paid features and current pricing are not clearly stated in the description.
