Volanta, a popular flight tracking software for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024, has announced support for Xbox consoles. Previously, the software was only available to PC users, along with a mobile app for tracking away from your simulator. Available on Xbox now, you will need a secondary device to be able to use Volanta like a tablet or phone.
Support for Xbox works by using the console as a transmitter, connecting your flight session on Xbox to your Volanta account. Volanta is available to install from the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 marketplace on Xbox, Cloud Gaming or GeForce NOW, installing a panel into your toolbar. Using a secondary device like a phone, tablet or laptop, you can view a detailed map and flight stats once connected to your account and flight.
The toolbar panel added by Volanta is just a small display to show you a code that you can use to connect accounts and a status on whether your flight is tracking or needs to be connected. Real-time tracking is only available to premium users; however, their free tier still offers tracking that changes frequency based on what you are currently doing inside the simulator.
Volanta for Xbox is available now on the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Marketplace. You can view the full installation and setup guide on Volanta’s website here. You can read about previous Volanta updates and more here on FSNews.
