Overview

A closer look at FlyBud – Flight & Turbulence.

FlyBud combines a flight log and live tracking with plain-language turbulence information for nervous flyers. Users can add a flight to see a route-level turbulence forecast, weather context, and reports from pilots ahead of them. The free tier includes unlimited flight tracking, a summary forecast, preflight report and reminder, a breathing guide that works in airplane mode, a journey log, and a shareable live flight page. FlyBud Pro adds a route map with weather layers, a fuller arrival report, aircraft tracking before it reaches the gate, live alerts, and Lock Screen activities. Pro is an auto-renewing weekly or yearly subscription; the captured description does not state prices. The developer says the app provides information, not advice, and travelers should follow their airline and crew. Forecasts can change, so use the app for context rather than operational decisions.
