The app has been great for years. Then suddenly I open the app and three years of flight history ( used for taxes) is gone. I have to log in, which was unusual too. It acted as if this was the first time using. So apparently it did a major reset. Sigh.
Email trip scanning not working. Key feature for my usage pattern. Support unresponsive. App works fine otherwise.
App always shows every trip twice in the list upon startup. Swiping down to refresh the page makes the problem go away.
Still an excellent app, but could be a lot better. You can't change trip names once you save them. UI could use a full redesign. The ability to archive flights would be good. A better map would also help. I'm sticking with this app I have used for years, but the competition has surpassed it in a few areas.
I paid for elite but they discontinued that service. Not worth the money for the few times a year I use it.
Same as so many others here. Had paid for ad free version, and had been a customer for years. Then they stopped supporting that version of their app until no choice but to "upgrade," thereby losing the status of the paid version. Attempted to discuss with support and response times very slow and very unhelpful. Only option to pay a recurring fee, or to go to a competitor. Yes please, competitor it is.
Purchased a elite version, but evidently they changed how it is being. I paid a 1 time charge then they converted it to monthly now. Free version has too many ads. I had to reload the app because it got stuck now I no longer have my elite version without paying every month. Changed my rating after seeing many other customers of the elite version complain of the same issue. We purchased a lifetime version that they discontinued. When forced to reinstall lost my elite version. Scammed
it's a decent app, but it'd be a lot better if you could save filtered searches (I'd assume with the no-ads subscription). I work on the ramp, so knowing when planes will arrive and depart our station, as well as knowing flights numbers and aircraft type, is imperative for my job; not having to change the filters every time would speed things up and make things much easier, and would definitely convince me to get a subscription, but at the moment, just ad removal isn't enough of an incentive.
I used to love this app, I've used it for years.. However, the developer recently changed the app so that the pop-up ads are incredibly intrusive. Instead of ads on the bottom of the page, now pop-up ads interrupt what you're doing at the worst possible time, making the free version borderline unusable. I'll likely be changing to a different app, since I feel like I'm being cudgeled into paying for the pro version.
I have used and come to depend on this app as a commuting flight attendant. I absolutely need up to date knowledge of flight schedules and gates. I have loved this app for many years. It has changed and does not work now while in the air on airplane Wifi connection. The airplane Wifi is excellent and runs all other apps with accuracy and speed, while Flightview gives me server and connection errors. What good is a flight app that will not work while in flight? If this is a known bug it needs to be fixed. This app, if it doesn't work while someone is flying and using airplane Wifi, is useless.
Not really impressed with this app anymore. It *used* to provide an updated 'time remaing' during flight. It *used* to provide a map to give an idea where your flight was located. And it *used* to let you swipe to see the aircraft's previous routing, so you could see if the inbound aircraft was running late. I haven't been able to get use of these recently.
Reduced another star because of the lame response by the developer. Me and all my drivers are switching to Flight Aware which has less ads on free version. This app has too much popup ads on the free version. They pop up at the most inopportune times. The ads on the bottom were fine but now the ads are more invasive. Makes me hate the app even more. Switching to Flight Aware.
Just reinstalled it on my new phone and the stop won't work at all. Looks like I'm going to be using a different app from now on.
I have used for over a year and was happy but last while it looses flights I have put in on a trip. They go in ok and can see but close and open and flight I put in is gone. No error. Have 8 flights in my trip but always deletes this one flight. Have put in many times but still gets deleted. Sometimes stays for a few days and other times for one minute. I put in ticket but never heard back anything. Just did a check and all info is on desktop version just missing on Android.
Some previous versions had bad bugs on Android 9 and 10 where each trip would be added multiple times. The recent bugfix corrects that. This is the only flight tracker I've found that shows an aircraft's inbound/previous flight, this is very useful when you want to find out if your flight is going to be late.
Learn your upcoming flight status when it happens. Might save your trip to the airport. No air travelers should do without!
Easy to use, updates well, accurate. I rely on this app.
I guess they stopped developing this app. It worked well for a long time, but suddenly it won't save flights and won't give any alerts. I think I wasted my money on the paid versions and my time with the free one. —So, don't waste your time in this garbage free app (or the paid ones). Stay away until they fix it (if) or upload a new update (not likely).
ABSOLUTELY GARBAGE. This used to be a good app, now it has turned into a complete useless app. The map doesn't work right. There are WAY TOO MANY ADS everywhere where the info is technically public and some of those ads don't close, so you have to exit and start again. Useless.
Convenient, easy and reliable.
I bought the elite version some time ago that didn't include ads. Now they say elite is not longer updated and I need to purchase in app upgrade to keep getting the elite experience. While I understand the shift, not grandfathering original users or even let them know they need to move to new application and consider the original purchase forfeited is a bad record for the application.
I purchased lifetime elite a few years ago. Now they got rid of it and only offers in app monthly purchase to get rid of ads. Emailed support. No answer. Why am I not grandfathered in? This gives me no confidence in purchasing a lifetime membership or supporting an app in the early stages ever again!
They scammed everyone by selling a lifetime subscription to a previous version that they no longer update then created this version for a monthly fee with no regard to their previous customers. They won't honor their previous commitment which is essentially fraud. Of course, no communication from them either. They ABSOLUTELY should be de-platformed.
Ads are a little annoying, but the updates are very timely and helpful. I especially like the feature that allows you to see if your airplane's previous leg is on schedule, and the one before that, and the one before that. 🙂
