Only the pilot needs to have an active Kubicek FlyMate PREMIUM plan enabled to share live position and be trackable by others.
Does the subscription work across platforms?
No. FlyMate Premium cannot be shared between Android and Apple devices.
The subscription is handled separately by Google Play and Apple App Store, and these systems do not share purchases.

To use Premium on both, two separate subscriptions are required.
