Aero Intel mobile application (mobile app) is an interactive learning application which is specific to aircraft airframe providing information to help aircraft maintenance engineering students. The objective for this study is to investigate students’ perceptions towards Aero Intel mobile app. Quantitative study using questionnaires have involved 78 respondents of semester 1 students of Diploma Engineering of Aircraft Maintenance from Politeknik Banting Selangor. The questionnaires constructed about ownership of smartphone, frequency use of type of apps, are they interested to download educational app and most importantly, students’ perceptions after exploring the Aero Intel mobile app. All respondents owned smartphones and 97.4% interested to use apps for academic purposes. The data obtained were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The finding results revealed the students have positive perception towards Aero Intel mobile application. Thus, the use of this application is expected to help students’ understanding in aircraft airframe and various feedbacks given to encourage educator as the developer to explore and improving development of mobile app for diverse needs in teaching and learning.
