How does it provide weather/turbulence updates, send push notifications, etc. all while in Airplane mode? Love the idea btw.

From the website!: It downloads professional aeronautic information and uses complicated mathematical models before the flight. In a plane, SkyGuru predicts and explains all process, unfamiliar sounds and even your feelings using sensors of your iPhone. You will wonder how accurate SkyGuru can predict all flight stages and processes.

Hi Product Hunters! I am the founder of SkyGuru. Besides, I am FAA and EASA licensed commercial pilot and a practicing fear of flying treatment specialist. I have taken up the cause of helping fearful fliers from all across the globe for the past 8 years. Over the course of work with anxious passengers, I came to the realization that what really helps in the moment is having an expert right there to offer support, calm nerves and explain what is going on during the entire flight process. So I built SkyGuru. The app is designed to support any passenger who experiences psychological discomfort while flying. SkyGuru helps them feel like someone is with them on the flight, watching out for them and helping them cope. SkyGuru acts like a pilot that sits next to the user and explains what is happening during the flight and what is expected next. This is the first app that merges mobile technology and professional aviation data to analyze flight processes. The beauty of SkyGuru is that it provides in-flight commentary (in Airplane mode) in real time. It keeps you abreast of the weather and explains how changes might affect the aircraft, warns about areas of turbulence and sheds light on various flight processes. Today we offer 1 trial flight for everyone who downloads the app. I hope you will try this app and share your comments and ideas how to make it better. Enjoy flying with SkyGuru, hope you like it! Alex

@a_gervash I'm wondering if it works even while disconnected from the INTERNET. And also I was wondering if the best way to handle the fear of flying is to simply get someone to fall asleep.

SkyGuru is the app for travelers who experience anxiety while flying. It uses professional aviation data to analyze and make predictions on flight processes in real time in order to keep passengers in the loop and explain what is happening, right as it happens. SkyGuru developers claim to have tested the app’s performance on more than 730 test flights, and the system went through 670 different iterations. SkyGuru users have already landed safely on 3,600 flights in more than 60 countries around the world. SkyGuru is built on algorithms that continuously analyze flight data and use mathematical models to generate forecasts, which are then transformed into user-friendly advice and recommendations. To get the most accurate forecasts possible, SkyGuru uses information from the 7 previous flights and updates its weather predictions using professional aviation data. The app operates in airplane mode in-flight and updates its forecasts using your phone’s sensors: microphone, gyroscope, barometer, etc.

Amazing. I am not all that worried about flying, but knowledge is power. It's one thing driving down the road and getting rattled by a pothole that I've seen approaching for a while, quite another thing to be surprised by some rough air.

@andreasduess thank you very much , indeed , the knowledge is important as it prevents fantasies. And if this knowledge is provided at the right time and uses right calming down language - it helps people to improve their flying experience.

There should be a Sky View mode like Google Map's street view. It would be cool to look down and see what we are flying over or to figure what mountain, river or city that is on the horizon. Active minds need distraction. The real issue is giving up control. Maybe take some features from the meditation Zen apps and include a calming background track with guided voice narration from the big pilot in the Sky. #SkyMallAlternative

@riptide360 These are great suggestions. Thanks. However, we need to remember that such mental "distractions" are a way to avoid being here and now (i.e. on the plane), which does not necessarily help an anxious flyer and only aggravates phobia further. The idea is that all the messages that the anxious passenger receives from SkyGuru are meant to keep him/her in the present moment and not let them "escape" into their fearful fantasies.

As a very anxious flier (yet one who flies quite often), I can't wait to try this! I just downloaded, but for the full version it is asking me to purchase a flight. Does the free 1 flight trial only apply to flights leaving today? I'd love to check it out on my flight next week.

@wesley_soeters Thank you, and .... It helps a lot. Generally , anxious passengers need : 1/ that the processes would be predictable 2/ re-assurance that "it's ok" 3/ feeling that someone cares. SkyGuru provides it all.
