Was the best now the worst

Been using this app for years. Had the free version and was awesome, so I finally broke down and paid for it, and I’m so sorry I did. Not sure if it sold or what happened but I’ve seen a team work so hard to destroy an app.

I’m on the road 50 weeks a year and relied on this app for everything. Now it’s garbage that doesn’t work, won’t even let me enter a fight. Wish I could get my money back

The old app would remember the airline, so on a round trip if I put Delta in the first leg, it was there for the return, but these geniuses decided that was too helpful, and surely most people take a different airline for each leg so let’s not do that.

The old app, when you set up the trip would carry the date over, so if you were setting up a trip for Next week it would auto populate the first day of the trip when you were entering flights, but once again that was too helpful so no matter what day you say the trip starts, when you go
To enter a flight it defaults to the day you’re doing it, cause I’m Sure there are times your taking a flight before the day you said the trip starts

And if they hadn’t ruined it enough, they gave is all the big middle finger and
Now it just won’t let you enter any flights at all! Just says Failed to save changes. Have contacted them twice and
Not getting anywhere. Don’t buy this app, don’t use this app

Love it but …

Love this app — been using it for years. I have had info about flight delays even before the flight attendants on occasion.
I understand the need for ads, but don’t like the scam ads that want to make you think you have been infected by a virus. Also a lot of the ads are persistent and you have to close the app to clear them. Annoying!

Used to be a good app

This used to be a good app however now it constantly crashes.
Won’t even show flights in and out of West Palm Beach. Keep your politics out!!

Worst decline in an app ever

If I could give it a lower rating than one star, I would. The fact that it’s a premium paid subscription, and they have removed so much functionality, is a sin.

Worst slide from best to worst app in history. It is complicated to add flights. For example, even if you set up a trip with a start and end date, when you go to add flights, they all default to today's date. And every flight you add, you have to assign it to the trip. It should default to the current trip you just set up. Also, if you have an error, like you forgot to change the date when you were setting up the flight, YOU CAN'T EDIT IT! You have to delete that flight and start from scratch.

The biggest takaway, though, is that you used to be able to email an itinerary and FlightView would load it. Now it's all manual.

I was an early adopter of this app, but I have just cancelled my subscription and removed it from my phone.

PLEASE FIX YOUR APP!!!!

**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.

Also, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring this feature 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.

I’ve tried to email their support and it always kicks my email back as an invalid email address…



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

What happened to FlightView???

Years ago, this was the best flight app. It was so good that I paid to upgrade to FlightView Elite, which unfortunately is no longer available. The current FlightView app is buggy and often gives me a “Failed to save flight” message. Even when it does save a flight, it fails to send me alerts. Why would a company take a once great app and make it so unreliable?

DJT

Why don’t you show any flights from or to DJT?????? Political reasons????

Ads

Bro your ads are way too long

Used to be a good app. Now almost worthless

Doesn’t show all the flights. Shows only a half hr window. Gotten bulky and clunky in use. Format has changed for the worse. Now has a login.
Must’ve had a management change, but this app isn’t worth having on the phone anymore. I’m in the unique position of knowing of actual flights, and then using this app to check on them, it doesn’t even show that they exist. It used to be quick, & reasonably accurate. Now it’s almost useless.

PBI airport code error

Getting kicked out of app when trying to add my flight from Palm Beach International (formerly PBI, now DJT 😑). When trying to add Flight AA2558 on travel date 9/17/26, the app kicks me out and closes. In addition, I tried using your App Support to report this issue but I received: “client-side exception has occurred while loading www.flightview.com.”Thank you for your attention to this matter, lol.

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?
Still waiting for that update…..

Used to be better

This app used to be great, but then there was an “upgrade” that removed some of the convenience that made it great. It’s still a good app for tracking trips and flights for those trips, but it got much more cumbersome to enter the flight info. For example, when entering flights for a trip next month, the date used for searching defaults to today, even though my trip has start and end dates of next month. The dates used to default to the first date of the trip, and persist from one flight search to the next; now each search reverts to today’s date. The flight search also used to remember the airline code from one search to the next; now I have to type it every time.
These are just two examples; there are certainly other small inconveniences. All the little things add up in the end, especially when I have to search for four or more flights for a trip.

Where is the map to track flight progress???

No map display! Tries to redirect to another app that wants me to pay. This is not cool.

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.
