Very useful app but pricing is unreasonable

I really like this app and honestly don’t mind paying for it as a gesture of support, if the price is more reasonable, which it is not. With little added value that comes with a paid version, I see little reason why anyone would want to spend almost $200 on this, let alone a universally-hated subscription model. Let’s be realistic, for the same amount of cash you can get an entire package of Affinity Photo, Designer and Publisher on all available platforms, or get a non-subscription Microsoft Office license for 5 users.
I mean, the pricing is just ridiculous.

Fantastic Customer Support

As an infrequent flyer, there are updates and changes that I have either forgotten from last time or not set up right. Not a problem, fast developer response and patience dealing with my requests. Helping sync with tripIt pro, adding details which might not have its own tab plus upgrading my better half to my account and checking all is working before closing the ticket. I was already a lifetime member. Wouldn't travel without this essential App. Other developers need to take a leaf out of their customer service. First Class.

Full of ads, despite having paid for a subscription

I bought a lifetime subscription for this app several years ago. Unfortunately it has really gone downhill since, the developer is trying to generate incremental revenue by selling esims, flight bookings, travel insurance, passenger compensation for delayed flights, etc. I haven't noticed any new features in a long while but the ads just keep increasing, including particularly aggressive ones via push message.

The auto check-in feature is not very useful as it doesn't let me add the boarding pass to apple wallet, so I don't find myself using it. I would recommend looking for an alternative.

Hi! This is Katrina from the App in the Air support team. Thank you for taking the time to review our app! We've expanded our offerings in-app to include features like eSIMs, booking capabilities, travel insurance, and more because of user requests we've received. We're sorry to hear these aren't some of the features you'd like to see. Our app also generates boarding passes for flights that have been booked through our app, too! We'd like to learn more about the features you'd like to see to make our app worthwhile, so please reach out to me at katrina@appintheair.com! Best regards, Katrina

Happy Long-Time User with Suggestion

When it comes to trip management apps, App in the Air is my go to app. For booking hotels and flights, it’s among the best I’ve seen on a mobile app in terms of user interface. However, with the latest update, the app has randomly locked up on the main booking page. Also, I’ve seen an occasional ‘failed to load results’ error when selecting a hotel from the search results list. As either issue happens rarely, it’s a minor matter that I’m sure they can correct in future updates. As a suggestion, I’d like to see the app detail what the ‘supports loyalty program’ when booking hotels. Does that really mean that one would get the same rates and rewards points as though the booking was made direct with the hotel brand? As it doesn’t ask for my hotel brand member number, I’m curious how that would work.

Paid version is full of ads.

This app has some useful features, but after buying a lifetime membership, the app is still bursting at the seams with advertising and promoted content.

In addition, the app often invents flight data, which makes it unreliable. For example, if I book a small, internal flight while visiting Malaysia, and then that flight is delayed, the app will show the flight as being airborne while I am sitting on the ground waiting to board. The app behaves as if it has access to real-time data when it doesn't. The end result is that you never know if the app is accurate. If the developers simply admitted to not having real-time data, we would at least know when to seek other sources of information, but instead they fake it when they don't have it—a huge mistake that makes you constantly fear you're missing critical information.
