Vol. VI For the people
you wait for.

A small iOS widget that quietly tracks the flight of someone you care about — your partner, your parent, your kid coming home for break. Add their flight number once. The widget appears on your Lock Screen or Home Screen as a live Certificate of Arrival — small caps title, double-ruled border, the flight written in typewritten serif. As they fly, the certificate fills in. Boarding. In flight. Approaching. Landed. The next morning, it clears.

i.What it does

Add a flight by typing the airline + number + date and the traveler's name.
The widget appears in three sizes — luggage tag, boarding pass, full certificate — plus Lock Screen complications.
A Live Activity shows the in-flight progress in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen.
Status updates arrive as silent pushes — boarded, off the ground, approaching, landed. No badge spam.
When the flight lands, an optional quiet notification reads "Arrived." Then the widget clears the next morning.
A Manifest of Arrivals inside the app keeps every flight as a small record — a longitudinal ledger of the people you waited for.

ii.For the person at home

Most flight apps are for the person flying — gate, seat, boarding group, baggage claim. Until Arrival is the opposite product: it's for the person waiting. The information you actually need is small. Are they in the air yet? When will they land? Is anything wrong? The whole product is one calm answer to those three questions.

iii.Quietly private

Until Arrival queries flight data on a small server we run, which speaks to AeroDataBox for the public flight schedule. The server only ever sees the flight number — not who you are, not who's flying, not where you live. Your traveler names, the manifest of past arrivals, all of that stays on your device and in your private iCloud account. sthreelabs cannot read any of it.

iv.What it doesn't do

No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs.
No account, no login.
No push notifications beyond the optional landed alert.
Not for tracking your own flight — Flighty does that beautifully. This app is for the people you wait for.
No social features, no sharing, no public feed.

v.Get it

$4.99. Requires iOS 18 or later.

Coming soon to the App Store.
