Tap the plus icon on the home screen. Enter a flight number, or pick a route and date. FlightFlow resolves it against configured flight-data sources and starts tracking.

Open the flight, tap the Share icon, and pick a contact. They get a link. The link works on any phone or computer (no install, no signup). They see the status, gate, ETA, and lifecycle in their local time.

Share-link data is deleted 48 hours after the flight lands. Your own flight history stays until you delete your account, and you can export it before deletion.

When a covered delay or cancellation happens to a flight you tracked, the Compensation Engine cross-references the airline's reason code, weather context, and the aircraft's tail history. If you appear eligible, it prepares a claim brief and evidence PDF for you to review and send.
