Cockpit Terms of Use

Effective October 2026. Last updated October 2026. Kovan Apps Yazılım Ltd. Şti.

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of the Cockpit: Live Flight Tracker mobile application (the “App”) published by Kovan Apps Yazılım Ltd. Şti. (“Company”, “we”, “us”). By downloading or using the App you agree to these Terms.

⚠️ Not for navigation or operational aviation use. Cockpit is for information and entertainment only. Aircraft positions come from a volunteer ADS-B receiver network and may be delayed, incomplete or wrong; aircraft without ADS-B, or those blocked for privacy, never appear. Weather, NOTAMs, airport status, events and AI explanations may also be delayed, incomplete or wrong. ATC audio and pilot (ACARS) messages are third-party public sources that we do not control, and transcripts are automated. Never use the App for flight planning, navigation, air traffic or safety decisions, or to locate or interfere with any aircraft or its crew. Always use official sources (FAA, NOAA, your airline).

1. No Affiliation

Cockpit is independent. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the FAA, NOAA, any airline, airport, air navigation service, aircraft operator or manufacturer, or by any of the data providers listed below. Names and logos of airlines and airports are shown for identification only.

2. Free and Pro

The live map, aircraft details, search and full airport cards (weather, NOTAMs, diagrams) are free. Cockpit Pro unlocks the events feed, the pilot message (ACARS) feed, alerts including plain-English rules, a Home region, live ATC audio with transcripts, pilot map layers, full AI explanations, widgets and Live Activities, and favourite aircraft and airport alerts.
