RadarContact Trial for Android
NEW: Version 6.3 features a new airport (full version only) and turn direction assignments! For other news see the "New Features" section below.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: If the speech output of "non-native-english" airlines like Lufthansa, Alitalia etc. sounds strange, please make sure you have all needed languages (French, German, Italian) installed: Settings -> Language & Input -> Text-to-Speech Output -> Settings -> Install voice data

how to play it?
To confusing
As a controller on VATSIM I've seen quite a few APP controllers on duty. I've had 2 game overs to this point while following real life procedure. (1) Accept a handoff asap. Tower sent me a low plane, which I accepted and sent up to FL140, HDG090. Game over. (2) Missed approach, climb FL030, HDG260 ('Maintain runway heading'), SPD250. Game over.
Nice simulation, but I would like to report a few glitches. 1) sometimes after reloading a saved game, the transmission text uses a larger font which annoyingly covers too much screen. Not sure how to reproduce, seems random. 2) if a label goes off the screen, there's no way to recover it especially if this happens right after reloading a saved game (e.g. if you have some milno departures flying along the bottom of the screen) 3) sometimes flights will go in flight avoidance mode for clouds that are too far away to be relevant. Happens also for flights on holding patterns well away from weather. 4) sometimes flights go in "stupid mode" and don't report clear from weather anymore. I *think* this happens when you give a "direct to" order to a flight that is avoiding weather. In a real situation, one would be able to talk to the pilot and ask where the hell he think he's going :-) Version 6.0 (trial) on HTC 816, Android 4.4.2
Started a game with default settings (1/10 dep, 1/10 arr, clear weather). Told tower to release the departure, accepted the handoff when it showed up, cleared it Fl150. GAME OVER... Departing aircraft need a 'grace period' before they're counted as too low... Either that or TWR shouldn't send a H/O request until it's at the proper altitude, as done IRL.
Great game but I still don't know what to do because it is so confusing
At the beginning would be nice if you didn't terminate the game for altitude clearance errors, lie training
This is great, everything I wanted in this type of game. I have played ATC-SIM online and this is much much better. Highly recommended. Well done to the developer.
Complex simulation with a lot of features which makes this app my favorite companion. The manual is a must before start playing. Fantastic work
Look.good
Hey nice game... D details of d aircrafts are too tiny nd nt able to mke a guess on d alt/heading... I use GT-I5510 mobil... Can u fix t??
unable to play
Interesting
After selecting "Start New" in the main menu, the picture when opening the application is shown, then it takes me to the main menu again. It keeps doing the same thing when I press "Start New". In addition, I bought the full version and I had to refund it because it gave me the same problem. Please fix this issue. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Android 4.4
I did this job for 25 years. This isn't close to realistic and sucks besides
Great game i use it to practice.
I love this game so much, i sugest to you update whit, more speed in game and widget playable, and will be perfect. Thanks
As a RL pilot and a huge fan of the old TRACON game, I love this app. It's challenging and playable on my phone. My earlier comments about excessive battery drain were incorrect.
Takes a little time to get the hang of it but once you do it's addicting... great atc simulator!
There is no sound plz fix
I think what would make this even better is if when u transmitted something to the aircraft,there was sound
very good
