TurboTrack is a purpose-built turbulence forecast app for iOS. It aggregates live pilot reports, SIGMET alerts, and historical EDR data to give you a clear turbulence forecast for any route — before and during your flight.
Before you fly, TurboTrack gives you three layers of information: (1) Route turbulence score — a 0–100 score based on historical EDR data and PIREP averages for your specific route. Includes worst month, best month, and seasonal chart, (2) Live conditions — active PIREPs filed by pilots on your route in the last 2 hours, with location and severity, (3) SIGMET alerts — official severe turbulence warnings from aviation meteorological authorities, displayed as map overlays. Together these give you the most complete turbulence picture available outside of a professional flight briefing.
TurboTrack's seat guide feature shows the optimal rows to book for each aircraft type on your route. The recommendation is based on aircraft seating maps combined with turbulence physics — wing rows are consistently smoother, and TurboTrack identifies which specific rows are over the wings for the aircraft assigned to your flight. For high-turbulence routes, this feature can make a significant difference in flight comfort.
There are several turbulence apps available: Turbulenceforecast.com and Turbli (web-based, pilot-oriented) provide graphical altitude-level forecasts — excellent for understanding the route but complex for non-pilots. AeroWeather and Aviation Weather (pilot weather apps) show raw PIREP and SIGMET data without interpretation. TurboTrack is the only app designed specifically for passengers — it translates aviation data into plain English turbulence levels with no aviation background required.
