I cannot find an airport

The Wader app has many airports in the database (over 42 thousand, actually!) but some of them may not appear at first to you because, as per design, we didn't want to release all of them and overload users' apps with airports not frequently used by the community! 😅

If that is the case, once you try to create a flight with any of those "hidden" airports, it may ask you in the first try to add that airport filling the ICAO code and (optionally) the IATA code. If the airport exists in the database, it will then release it. 😉

If it still doesn't show to you right away, just try to close and reopen the app, and its info shall appear.

If nothing happens, then you probably created an airport not covered by database yet. I such cases, our team receives an automatic notification to check it out and added it to the database, so every user can use this new airport as well.

In case you face this behavior too frequently, you may always contact us, as we can release a list of airports at once for you.
