There are downsides, however. For one, the app only operates in landscape position. Two, you can't make the airline logos any larger than ant-size. But the biggest issue is that nowhere does it say what terminal at the airport the flights depart from. You can view the gate number (when it's assigned), immediate gate changes, baggage claim info and even temperature information at the destination airport, but no terminal numbers.
The above look at the available airports should give a good idea as to the breadth of this app. Heck, we never knew that we were so interested in flights from Guernsey until we started playing with AirportRemote. We highly recommend it for frequent travelers and for anyone who enjoys plane spotting. Squint up at the sky to departing and arriving flights then down at your phone to identify them quickly. To be honest, it beats the other flight tracking apps we've got on our phone.
[Disclosure: AirportRemote gave us a code to play with the app, but all opinions here are our own]
