Terms of use

Last updated: 2 September 2026

These terms govern your use of Wingtip, whether through the app or the website. By using Wingtip, you accept them. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the service.

Who publishes Wingtip

Wingtip is published by IDDAD SRL, a private limited company incorporated in Belgium, Rue Grande-Bêche 127, 4020 Liège, Belgium, registered with the Belgian Crossroads Bank for Enterprises under number 1002.151.144. Full details are in the legal notice.

What the app does

Wingtip identifies the aircraft flying over you from public flight data and turns them into collectible cards. Your collection, your progress and your profile live on your device.

Wingtip is not a flight instrument

This is the most important section on this page. Positions, altitudes, speeds and identifications come from third-party sources, may be incomplete, delayed or wrong, and some aircraft simply do not broadcast at all. Wingtip is a game. It must never be used for navigation, traffic avoidance, operational decisions, or any purpose related to aviation safety.

Use common sense with the app as well: it asks you to point your phone at the sky. Do not use it while driving, in any place where looking up is unsafe, or anywhere photography is prohibited.

Free access and the Pro subscription

Wingtip is free to use. The number of free scans per day is shown in the app and may change. All aircraft are capturable from the first launch, and no rank is reserved for subscribers.

The Pro subscription lifts the daily scan limit and unlocks legendary cards. Without a subscription, a legendary card is captured normally and appears in your Hangar face down: it does not open, and it counts neither towards your collected types nor towards experience until it is opened. The day you subscribe, it opens and starts counting, with no need to capture it again.

The monthly and yearly plans give access to exactly the same features: they differ only in billing.

Purchase, renewal and cancellation

When you subscribe from the iOS app, the purchase is made and billed by Apple, through your Apple Account, under the Apple Media Services terms. The price shown at the time of purchase is the one that applies: it depends on your country and currency, and Apple is the party displaying it.

The subscription renews automatically at the end of each period, at the same rate, unless you cancel it. Cancellation is done in your Apple Account settings, at least 24 hours before the end of the current period: we have no control over this and cannot cancel on your behalf. After cancellation, the subscription remains active until the end of the period you have already paid for.

Refund requests are likewise handled by Apple, under its own rules.

Right of withdrawal

This is digital content supplied immediately. By subscribing, you request immediate access and acknowledge that you thereby lose your statutory 14-day right of withdrawal. This does not prevent you from requesting a refund from Apple under its rules, nor does it affect your rights if the service is defective.

What you may not do

• Circumvent or attempt to circumvent the limits of the service, including by falsifying your location or tampering with the data stored on your device.
• Query our technical relay outside the app, automate it, or generate an abnormal volume of requests.
• Reuse Wingtip's photographs, card texts or graphic assets beyond personal use.

The app provides a way to move your progress between your own devices. It is not intended to pass paid access on to someone else.

Availability

Wingtip depends on third-party services (airplanes.live, OpenSky Network, adsbdb, planespotters.net, Wikimedia Commons) which may change, degrade or stop without notice. We do not guarantee continuous availability, complete traffic coverage, or a photograph for every aircraft. The service may evolve, and some features may be changed or withdrawn.

If a lasting outage made the subscription unusable, write to us through the Support page.

Liability

Wingtip is provided as is, for recreational use. To the extent permitted by law, we cannot be held liable for any damage resulting from inaccurate flight data, from unavailability of the service, or from use contrary to the “Wingtip is not a flight instrument” section. Nothing in these terms limits the rights granted to you by Belgian law and European consumer law, nor our liability in case of gross negligence or personal injury.

Intellectual property

The app, its interface and its graphic assets are protected by copyright. Aircraft photographs and flight data belong to their respective authors and providers and are credited under their own licences; details are in the legal notice.

Personal data

How your data is handled is described in the privacy policy, which forms an integral part of these terms.

Changes to these terms

These terms may change. The last update date is shown at the top of this page. A substantial change will be signalled in the app. Continuing to use Wingtip after a change constitutes acceptance.

Governing law

These terms are governed by Belgian law. If you are a consumer, you keep the benefit of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings before the courts of that country.
