Our Take

Skyty Wall is one of those ideas so simple you wonder why nobody built it sooner. You know that iPad sitting in a drawer gathering dust? Turns out it can become a live flight board showing every plane screaming overhead your house—the A320neo from Swiss at 34,000 feet, the Lufthansa A350 climbing out—all on real ADS-B data, updating around the clock. It's $4.99. One time. No subscription, no account, no servers tracking what you watch. Everything stays on your device. That's the privacy pitch most apps wouldn't dare to make anymore.

Three themes come included: the LED display that looks like a mid-century airport arrivals board, the split-flip Vestaboard-style animation if you've got the upgrade, and minimal editorial vibes for the design nerds. You can filter by airline, set sleep schedules, track mom's flight with push notifications, save presets to swap between bedroom and office views. Family Sharing throws in five extra people for free. There's even a browser-based preview so you can watch the sky over your location right now without installing anything. It's pure ambient dopamine—the kind of thing you mount on a wall and just let run. Aviation nerds, this is your screensaver. Welcome to the sky.
