Greed took over

This app used to be amazing until it became absolutely unusable. SO MANY ADS! Can’t even look up a flight anymore without an ad popping up that won’t let me close it. It’s so sad because this used to be my go to app to check flights

No longer works for quick flight finding

App removed all cargo flights and takes a lot of clicks to get to the flight by route tracking

Airport Update

Normally, I am a big fan of FlightView. My wife and I have been paid subscribers for several years. Today, I cancelled my subscription. 95% of my flights are out of DJT. The name change happened 6 weeks ago after a 2 month lead time. As of 3 minutes ago, DJT is not a recognized airport. So, I’m not paying until they resolve the issue. I struggle to understand why this is an issue still. Update the damn database already!

Ads Are Awful & Not Removed For Paid Removal

This app was much better several years ago. The information provided is not as complete as it used to be and worst of all the ads are terrible and on for a very long time. I paid their fee of $24.99 to remove the ads in April and it's now June and they still have not removed the ads and have not responded to my queries about the problem. No customer support at all will find another app to replace it. The absolute worst!!! Don't waste your time with this loser

Very disappointed

Used to be very good, then removed all my historical records and added more ads after update, has to delete it and try other apps

Doesn’t work

If you are able to get through all the pop-ups and ads, find your flight, then get an error when you try to save it to your trip.

Used to be a good app

This was a good app. Now’s it’s a data grab from your device and forced upgrades and subscription to avoid the stupidest ads. With so many apps out there, it’s too bad this one has become this. I’ve deleted it off my phone. I’ll find something else. Do yourself a favour and keep searching.

Used to be great, now useless

This used to be the best flight app. Then they apparently updated it, erasing years of prior flights in the process. And now the flight status doesn’t update on the main screen (just says scheduled), the map doesn’t work (click ok map, get a blank screen, maybe 15 min later you’ll see something if you’re lucky), and there’s no way to name your trips. These developers must be the least competent on earth, they took a perfect product and rendered it garbage. If you’re planning to advertise with them, go elsewhere.

Horrible App

This app has not worked properly in months /year ! No updates. No explanations ! Terrible. Need a refund asap

Used to be great. Can no longer view plans offline/airplane mode

The app shows nothing while in flight. Cannot retrieve any flight plans.

App crashes

Emailed 5x to fix issue entering flights. Whenever I do the app crashes. Ive relied on this app for years and all I was told was to wait for an update. Waiting for over a month. How is it possible that developers can’t fix this issue?

Can’t save flight to trip

I am a free user. Today, I am unable to save a flight to a trip. Says “Failed to save your changes”. It has worked in the past. I exited app & reboot phone, no luck. I tried a different flight. That worked. Tried original flight, that failed.

PLEASE FIX YOUR APP!!!!

**Update**

App has been updated and the 3 issues were fixed as I mentioned previously below.

**NEW PROBLEM**
DJT (formerly PBI) is no longer in their data base and you cannot search flights into and out of this airport 😞

This app used to be my favorite one for looking up flights. Not long ago I purchased the “paid” app for one year, since I loved it so much and didn’t want the ads. Now that they changed the format, it has been TERRIBLE. I continually try to contact support for feedback and suggestions but every email fails to send and gets kicked back to me.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring these 2 features back to the app:

1) When searching a flight, the ability to flip-flop departure and arrival airports has gone away. This is a must have feature.

2) No more inbound flight information 😱 This is valuable and needs to be added back as well!

3) I’ve also noticed when searching for a flight and one doesn’t exist, it is much, much slower to generate the “no flights exist for this route”message.

PLEASE MAKE THIS APP GREAT AGAIN!!!! 🇺🇸

Am I a paid subscriber or not?

I pay the subscription for this app through the App Store. For several months now I’ve been dealing with advertising. That’s only supposed to be on the free app. When I submit a complaint to the app developer I get an automated email message that v.5 has issues and they are being addressed. This is the same message I got when submitting the same complaint several months ago. I think it’s time to find another flight app.

Commercials Delux Apple must be low on capital.

Most every app is interrupted either a 30s to a 3 minute commercial. My daughter needed info regarding a trip. Instead I get a sickening commercial
showing months old toenails. 🤮

Used to be great

Used to be a great app. Now it crashes and you can’t track anything. Disappointing.

Was great now is ok and I’m looking for replacement

When I got a new phone my paid subscription cost went up from a few $ a year to $25 a year. And now I cannot delete flights by swiping them. Not at all impressed.

Used to be great

No in flight info anymore.

Was the best now the worst

The ads constantly block and hang the app. Pitiful, find another tracker

The application is no longer working

The application is no longer working , it’s not showing the flight status any more , no more gate info neither baggage claim info , it’s completely useless .
