keeps showing another route instead of the one that is supposed to be shown up. flight info doesnt update all the time. says N/A across the board. where i search again for the flight and half the info shows up. but not where the flight is now. seems like there is alot of bugs in this app. it was way better before.
I really want to like this app, but it has issues that make me question the price. Great potential, but a long way off. That said, I'm going to hang in there and see how things develop over the next 6 months - if fixes appear, then I'll be happy to up the stars. Edit: Nothing much seems to be getting fixed. I've started using another app - fewer features, but they all seem to actually do the job. At the moment, Id say this was a waste of money.
4/3/19 3 Star: I am using the pro version and it takes too long to open to extent that I have stopped using it and also seems like has issues with notifications 6/15/19: (FYI - Paid version) I have the notification on for flight changes but it does not provide any notification.
Was working up until last update a few weeks ago. Since then I can no longer log in with my account. Have tried contacting support but no response.
Could easily have cost me a flight, gave a totally incorrect Gate number. Waste of money. Uninstalled
The app I was looking for. The negative: too complicated and too expensive.
Great app....helpful in getting information on flight status!
Weather not displaying.
Why free version is getting updates and paid version not?
Flight KL911 from Amsterdam to Catania in Sicily @ 12:35pm local time today 10 Nov 2018 has now landed in Catania on time. However this app still has it sitting in Amsterdam!! Not the first time I've had cause to complain about this sort of error. Plus app keeps on re-populating itself with flights long since deleted, contributing to excessive startup times. Used to be reliable but not now, & support doesn't seem to exist. Waste of money!! FlightStats much more accurate.
Upgraded to pro but now I can't find the function to show me all the planes flying near me. The world map is totally free of plane icons. Please advise.
Does exactly as it should on a Pixel 2. Very useful.
The worst app ever. Never say the current Information. I bought this app 3 years ago and never work properly I feel like the app is a fraud.
What the f. You cannot create an account, so can do absolutely nothing with the app. What a complete waste of money now.. Completely regret paying for pro which does not do a damn thing.
Sometime i found logoff. I using google account but after few hours witout activity,the app is logoff and i need to login again in order to sycronise my previous data. I don t like that.
Keeps freezing. Continually adds a new event to Google Calendar for an old completed flight. Waste of money.
New update fixed the crashes but no notifications on flight updates. Regretted paying for this app.
For full version, a rip. App does its own thing, poor updating
Why does the planner only work 2 days in the future. Be so much better if you could plan for the year out as flight tracker used to do
Completed a flight with the app not blinking an eye. No notification, alerts, n o t h i n g. Were do I ask for a refund ?
The flightboard feature is useless. Only shows flights that have already departed. You need it to show screens just like airport
Surprisingly buggy for a reasonably expensive app. For example, it claims today (Friday 18th November 2016) is a Monday when you look at the calendar view. If you look at a plane on the radar view it is in one place; tap on it and then look at the map within the flight view and it is in a completely different place. Also uses about 6% of my battery and a lot of data every day, even if I don't open the app. That's twice as much battery consumption as any other app installed on my phone, even apps I use a great deal. Reinstalled two years later, the first flight I entered couldn't be found. Waste of money.
Far too confusing and very unintuitiv for most. Just download and will now uninstall and request a refund.
3/2 This was a great app until today's update, now it only tells me history, not what is planned for the future. I paid for this. 3/5 App still broken after latest update, Flight Board still will not tell me what is planned, only what has happened. Still showing screen shots of when app worked. 3/8 No improvement, 'Google return json without id' is the message. 3/9 Still broken, same message. 3/20 Flight Board is better, but not what it was before the updates. I can now see what is scheduled, but not any changes to the schedules until after the flight is airborne, except for the freighters. I work at BOS, and this was a good app to anticipate the airlines needs and not be blind sided when the schedule gets 'adjusted' due to weather or other disruptions. I'm looking for another app, I'm uninstalling this one.
TripIt "integration" is worthless. Often it does not work and on the rare occasions (and I do mean "rate") when it does, it gives me information for every flight. Honestly, my major us-case is real-time updates on my flights. Unfortunately, FlightHero Pro cannot provide that. A complete waste of money and effort.
