A flight companion across two mobile platforms
True Skies says its new Android app extends flight sharing and tracking to travellers using either of the two major mobile platforms. Friends, relatives and colleagues can follow one another’s journeys without needing the same type of phone. Its existing iOS app remains available, while the larger True Skies 2.0 update has been submitted to Apple for review. The announcement describes that version as awaiting approval rather than already available.
Skye brings conversational help to travel
The centrepiece of iOS 2.0 is Skye, an AI-powered flight assistant offered through True Skies First Class. Travellers can ask questions in everyday language about flight status, boarding gates, delays, the aircraft’s previous flight, airport conditions and weather. The company says the assistant can also help with baggage allowances, pet travel rules, destination entry requirements and airline contact channels. Users can add and follow flights through the assistant.
When a disruption notification arrives, a passenger can open it and ask Skye what to do next. The aim is to bring contextual information and possible next steps together instead of leaving travellers to search several separate services. The initial release is planned for iOS, with Android support to follow. Siri integration is intended to provide voice access to key travel information outside the app itself.
Tracking changes before and during a journey
The platform monitors gate changes, delays, cancellations, aircraft substitutions and baggage reclaim belts. Its departure-planning features take flight timing and other journey information into account when helping travellers decide when to leave for the airport. Live tracking is accompanied by transfer guidance, airport and weather information, and baggage information.
Basic flight information remains accessible without a connection. Flights can be added through search, a shared link or a QR code. First Class subscribers also have options to scan boarding passes or import flights from their calendars. Shared links and QR codes allow people waiting for a passenger to keep track of the same journey.
Features beyond the flight status screen
True Skies First Class includes a Nervous Flyer Mode with breathing exercises, explanations of common aircraft sounds and turbulence, and calming activities. The redesigned Passport and Flight Log turns completed journeys into a visual record, bringing together flights, miles, airports and countries visited. Subscribers can access additional information such as visa guidance and exchange rates.
The company also describes travel profiles for pets, which subscribers can maintain and share with airlines or veterinarians. True Skies is built with SwiftUI on iOS and Jetpack Compose on Android. It says this approach lets each version use its platform’s capabilities while retaining a consistent experience. The Android app is available through Google Play and the existing iOS version through the App Store; the timing of iOS 2.0 remains dependent on Apple’s review.
