Maybe better then nothing - for rough traffic overview, only an idea but take a look at https://adsbexchange.com/data/ Apple Watch App is also quite nice, would love a SkyDemon integration as a smart traffic backup in the regular "Radar" screen (used also for GDL-90 etc.) UI like the Apple Watch App shown at ADS-B Exchange ;-) stay healthy esp. Tim ;-) & keep up your fantastic work!

The usual tracking sites like FR24, Radarbox etc try to sneak through grey areas, but in principle kind of obey laws and treaties including pulling the US blocking lists while trying to pull the discussion to opt-in or opt-out. Putting them in one bucket with a pirate org like ADS-B Exchange isn‘t fair.

There is also another app on the market which is showing the traffic and also send position data to the system. The problem is, that if you fly in a higher flightlevel > 3000tf your mobile can not receive anything. So it is more critical as helpful i think !

You're right Tom, this was really only meant as a minimal backup, i know many pilots who don't even fly higher than 3000ft, I know some who use the ADS-B Exchange Watch app, to be prepared for the rough environment but surely VFR depends on good airspace observation anyway! Was really just meant as an emergency backup when you don't have your stratux in your pocket or flying with minimal equipment, stay healthy & always happy landings, and Tim thanks for your great work!
