Fly is played in portrait, with one thumb.
| The square pad | Push up to climb, slide left or right to turn. |
|---|---|
| ▲ and ▼ | Beside your thumb. Up and Down in the helicopter, drone and saucer. Faster and Slower in the jets. |
| Throttle bar | On the right. Slide it to set your speed. BRAKE is at the bottom. |
| FIRE and BOMB | In the space fighter and both jets. Hold FIRE for the cannon. Tap BOMB to drop a bomb. |
| Out and Jet | Out jumps you out of the craft. You glide down and walk. Jet calls your craft back. |
| Fix | A red button that shows up when your craft is damaged. Tap it to repair. |
| Map | Top left. Opens the big map. On the planets it is a globe. |
| Pause | Top left. Pick a craft in Vehicles and a world in Places. Controls and Settings are there too. |
Yes. There is nothing to buy in the app.
No. Fly has no ads and no ad or analytics software from anyone else.
No account, ever. All three worlds are inside the app, so you can play offline.
The first time you play, Fly asks once whether it may send recordings of your play. If you say yes, each session records your touches and controls, where your craft is and how it moves, the camera, the world, frame timings and the app version. It does not record your name, an account, a device ID, your screen, your camera, your microphone or your location. Each session gets a random ID that isn't tied to you or your phone.
To turn it off, open the pause menu and tap Session recording, the first row. That stops new recordings and deletes any that haven't been sent yet. The privacy policy has the details.
Any iPhone with iOS 17 or later. That is iPhone XS, iPhone XR, iPhone SE (2nd generation) and newer.
Tap pause (top left). Places switches between Chicago, Floating Chicago and Vík. Vehicles picks one of the six craft.
Fly straight up past the sky. The sun and the planets are out there. Keep your distance from the sun: its heat damages your craft. Tap Fix to repair.
Open the pause menu, then Settings, and pick Hot phone: 30 fps, lighter under Graphics. The game runs cooler.
The fighters shoot buildings and drop bombs on them. Buildings burn and fall down. There are no people or animals in the game. Fly is rated 13+.
