Which simulators are supported?

Microsoft Flight Simulator (SimConnect, Windows), X-Plane (UDP data output) and Prepar3D. The client auto-detects installed simulators when it launches.

Does SkyFactor connect to VATSIM or IVAO?

Is SkyFactor free?

How do updates work?

Background auto-updates with delta patches and automatic restarts — Windows, macOS and Linux.
