The fastest, easiest to use NOTAMs app available, from the makers of the award-winning Takeoff Aviation Weather!
NOTAMs Decoder intelligently gathers all NOTAMs in a requested area (U.S. ONLY), and sorts them according to risk and importance. NOTAMs are presented in an ordered, color-coded way, with one tap access to the full report.
NOTAMs Decoder converts many NOTAMs from cryptic messages to readable English, and even understands effective times--converting them into simple language like in an hour.
Find relevant NOTAMS:
- Nearby you (using GPS)
- At a list of your Favorite airports
- Along a route (enter up to 5 airports on your path)
- Near any airport
If you are looking for a quick and easy way to always ensure you are up to date with NOTAMs, NOTAMs Decoder is perfect for you!
NOTAMs Decoder is a universal app and will work on your iPhone, iPad, and iPad mini.

Latest reviews of NOTAMs Decoder app for iPhone and iPad
I loved this devs app, takeoff so i figured i would try this out. Let me tell you this app is just as great as takeoff, This is the first app Ive found that displays notams in a easy to read format. A must have app for any pilot.
Just like with their Takeoff app, this company once again takes a bunch of difficult to comprehend data and transforms it into easily readable information. This company seems to really get what is important.
Intuitive and simple - does what it says. More stars would come if user could actually input an airport code rather then going to favorites or build a route. User has not control of how many airports show when selecting show notams on route. Good value for the price though and good for a quick search of notams color coded.
Should remember your route but does not if you close route page. Should prioritize TFRs (i.e. red).
The app prioritizes tower lights out above an airports ILS being out. The app continues to ask for your location service to give "nearby notams". Useless unless the pilot is sitting at the airport and going flying to the next closest airport. Not a good app. Try something different.
