Apple messages applications might be useful if you pick up your family from the airport or have to catch your own plane.
The messaging application available on iOS and iPados devices can be used as flight trackers to check delays, assignments of gates, luggage claims numbers and other information.
This feature can help you know whether the flight runs early or late, or if the plane has been directed to a taxi to a different gate.
All important flight information you need can be found in the message application and iPhone users do not need to install separate airline applications.
How to use it? There are some important things you must remember that iMessages must be activated.
To activate it, visit the settings option and then select the message.
Make sure the toggle switch next to the iMessage is turned on.
Having imessage is turned on important because flight information will not function on SMS or MMS.
The flight you want the message application for tracking must be written in the message content that you have sent to someone (even yourself) or sent to you.
This information must be sent in a certain format that includes [mask] [flight number]; For example Air India AI-763.
Open the message application and search for the message that has a message that contains flight information.
When this specific message with this particular info appears on your cellphone, the flight information will be underlined, making it acquired and with the ability to knock.
Conversely, if the flight you tracked is a few months, or it has taken off, you will find a message that says, “flight information is not available.” Someone must also be careful about the flight number “recycling” airline.
So, if you are traveling Air India Flight 762 from Delhi to Kolkata and next you find Air India Flight 762 in the message application, it might stand for a different flight from Bangalore to Mumbai.
The features available at this service can use this service to find out whether your flight is on time, the gate where it will be a taxi to and other information without having to install the airline application.
You will find two options if you select the underlined message that can be followed up with the name of the airline and flight number, which – preview the flight and copy the flight code.
The first option will display more info about this flight if you tap this box and if you tap the last option, it will copy the flight code and put it on your clipboard from where it can be shared with other people through your text or email.
If you choose a flight preview, you will find a flight tracking map with a point on the origin of the flight and one at the destination, at the top of the screen.
The small aircraft icon will move between two points that show your flight location in real-time.
It sounds like a lot of data, but there are more info that can be found under maps that include – flight names and flight numbers, flight status (arriving on time, delayed, canceled, and so on), arrival time and departure, terminal numbers and gates ( For arrival and departure), baggage claims (the number of carousel luggage) `and the duration of the flight.
You can switch between different flights if you swipe left at the bottom of the flight tracker.
But this feature will only work if you need to track the flight back.
All this useful information is important if you go to the airport to pick up someone or take someone off.
In both cases, know the terminal and gate numbers, the number of carousel luggage, flight status, airline and flight number, can make tasks faster and not yet smoother.
