### 3/5 — Inconsistent

*2026-08-22, version 7.14*

The app doesn’t work when I need to check in or download boarding passes. It is very inconsistent.

### 2/5 — The IOS 17.0

*2026-08-21, version 6.7.1*

Just because I have not updated my iPhone, I cannot up date the app from Delta. I would need to download the IOS 17.0, but since my iPhone is an 8, it does not support the 17.0. Ugh!

### 2/5 — Poorly designed

*2026-08-17, version 7.14*

There are parts of this application that are very poorly designed. It can be very convenient to use. However, in an event where you are using the electronic only part of the service.  Make sure that you check in well before your flight. You may receive notifications regarding your boarding. It actually doesn’t mean anything if you do not acknowledge a check in 30 minutes before flight. Your seat can and will be given up. But you will still receive notifications for boarding after you miss your flight by trying to check i. At z29 minutes cs 30.

### 2/5 — design not mobile friendly

*2026-08-14, version 7.14*

I love the functionality of this app. Unfortunately, in one of their “upgrades”, they took away the functionality that adapts screen size when you have your iPhones set to larger fonts. As a result, the app is basically useless now because I can’t read the left and right content. For example, flight info is cut off, so I have nothing useful at all. Delta needs to do a better job testing on iPhones with settings other than default. As a user, I have to choose between easily reading texts and emails or using my Delta app. Guess which one I chose?

Do better, Delta. This used to work.

### 2/5 — Terrible experience

*2026-08-10, version 7.14*

I have never written an app review before but the Delta iPhone app did not let me go to my payment to buy my ticket. I’m sure this is because I bought a Basic ticket without opting for any upgrades or insurance. I was able to switch to a laptop but if you only have your phone they have you over a barrel.

### 3/5 — Broken

*2026-08-09, version 7.14*

The app has many functionality issues.. it crashes a lot, searches for flights say error or not available, but when you search the same flights, dates and time frames on the website, it works just fine. The interface needs a lot of work and software needs updating. The app should be most functional/efficient to use when booking flights. It’s frustrating to deal with all of its issues when one is excited to book a flight.

### 2/5 — Can they make it any harder to do anything?

*2026-08-08, version 7.14*

What’s the point in having an app if I have to provide every last detail about my trip in order to get any information? Face ID doesn’t work, doesn’t recognize my fight confirmation number, which I have to provide along with my first & last name - information I’ve already provided to login in! Very frustrating.

### 4/5 — Larger font for confirmation number would be helpful

*2026-08-08, version 7.14*

The app has always functioned pretty well for me. One thing I think would improve the app would be having the confirmation number in larger font or being able to tap it or something to enlarge. I often don’t see where my confirmation number is right away and I stand at the check in kiosk for too long trying to find the number to punch in.  Otherwise the app is great.

### 1/5 — DONT FLY WITH THEM

*2026-08-08, version 7.14*

Flight attendants don’t show up

### 1/5 — App won’t allow booking; has cost me hundreds

*2026-08-07, version 7.14*

App will not save my traveler contact info (phone number) and has now twice cost me over $100 as prices went up before I could get to a computer to book.  Not a fan. 🤬

Edit: I ended up booking my current trip on United.

### 2/5 — Disconnects boarding pass

*2026-08-06, version 7.14*

Even while logged into my account, the app has twice now disconnected my boarding pass from the app while I’m in line for the flight, so I have to jump out of line go back into my email and re-sync the boarding pass.

### 1/5 — app checked me in, i screenshotted the seat given, made it to airport and no check-in record

*2026-08-05, version 7.14*

a hot garbage app. either a frontend problem — or a major backend failure. i made them take my seat back — from a stranger they had given it to. terrible experience for at least two people.

### 1/5 — Terrible experience

*2026-08-05, version 7.14*

This app is fine for flights but terrible for customer service for cardholders. It isn’t tracking my miles, when I attempt to add flights through their forms the chat asked me to log in three times, which I did each time and then it looped me back in and told me to log in again. I’m also not able to access cardholder benefits for my flights. Who has time for this nonsense?!

### 1/5 — Ticket info

*2026-08-04, version 7.14*

When I click on ticket info, it expands larger than the page…so it doesn’t all fit and it’s out of view. It works fine on their webpage. A bummer since   An app should make things easier.

### 3/5 — Upcoming Trips Not Displaying in Fly Delta Widget on MacBook Pro

*2026-08-04, version 7.14*

After adding the Fly Delta widget to my MacBook Pro (Apple M4 Pro – Tahoe 26.6), the widget displays as blank and doesn’t load any upcoming trips.

### 4/5 — Feature desperately needed!

*2026-08-03, version 7.14*

The app generally works very well for me. I fly quite a bit for work, and Delta is my preferred airline.
One thing that I have noticed is there is a feature desperately needed:
A notification, similar to Google maps ‘quicker route’.
A prompt that asks you if you want to accept the seat upgrade that’s being offered.
I know it may sound silly to some, but for a person who is above average height, or claustrophobic, an aisle seat is the only option.
Because upgrades are given automatically, based on status, I am frequently upgraded to a seat next to a window, which never works.
Then I have to haggle with the gate agent to get a different seat in the aisle, if it’s even available.
Alternatively, when we set up our profile and say that our preference is ‘aisle’, make that a parameter that prevents upgrades to non-aisle seats.
Thanks!

### 1/5 — Unable to add boarding pass to wallet

*2026-08-03, version 7.14*

As the title says, tried several different methods to try doing a simple thing which is to add the boarding pass into apple wallet and it did not work. I tried 2 different browsers , I tried the same method in an android phone and the same issue.

### 2/5 — Convenient but needs to be fixed

*2026-08-03, version 7.14*

The app lets you do quite lot but one thing that I feel is a miss is that when you request for upgrade and enter your preference of isle, middle, or window. I often get the option that I didn’t request. App problem? policy problem?  Doesn’t matter, just fix it Delta. No one in economy with a window or aisle seats considers a middle seat in comfort zone an upgrade. Thanks but no thanks.

### 1/5 — The app doesn’t work

*2026-08-01, version 7.14*

The app doesn’t work

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — fails at fundamentals

*2026-08-28, version 7.15*

so slow, breaks often. flexible date search not working. this app is not doing what it is supposed to be for.

### 1/5 — Canceled

*2026-08-24, version 7.14*

Had more flights cancelled and delayed then flights in total, and I fly often, but never had my flight cancelled 3 times before finally getting a flight

### 1/5 — CEO announced using ai to raise prices on flight

*2026-08-21, version 7.14*

why would i ever want to fly when they are artificially raising prices even more than they already do. at least dont say the quiet part out loud. deleting this app

### 1/5 — Worst customer service

*2026-08-21, version 7.14*

Got diverted and missed my trip, took forever to get reimbursed.

### 1/5 — Ridiculous prices and delays

*2026-08-21, version 7.14*

Delta is no longer the best airline out there. They still charge higher than other airlines (ridiculously high) but the number of delays are ridiculous.
All Delta fanboys, girls and the management have lost their brains in the gutter.

### 1/5 — Terrible service

*2026-08-19, version 7.14*

Aside from the app being mediocre, Delta is way overpriced for the value, charges for every little thing, and doesn’t let you sit together despite booking together unless you pay more. I fly a lot and they are could not care less about customers.

### 1/5 — I like the old app

*2026-08-18, version 6.7.1*

You’re making me change my system for an upgrade an ISO 17 that’s nice when people wanna waste money on a new system at their expense

### 1/5 — Very bad experience with young daughter traveling

*2026-08-12, version 7.14*

Stuck in Atlanta overnight, could have easily flew through other cities but got stuck on tarmac for 3 hours …

### 1/5 — Delta makes is impossible to use e-credits

*2026-08-11, version 7.14*

Every time I have e-credits they require me to call in just to use the e-credits. I end up waisting an hour going through the IVR, waiting on hold, and then having to have the representative book looking the flight, take my credit card, and book the same flight that is blocked on the checkout EVERY TIME I USE E-CREDITS.

### 1/5 — Very Disappointing experience for a loyal Delta customer

*2026-08-10, version 7.14*

When an unexpected travel disruption occurred (on July 29 2026 at YUL -TPA flight) I expected Delta to make reasonable effort to support its customers, but instead i was left to purchase 2 Air Canada tickets at my own expenses ($1200).  I also could not retrieve my checked bag wt Delta after working 3-4 hours with 3 Delta personnel they failed to help so i could properly transfer to Air Canada, which resulted in my bag going missing.  I spent 2 days making repeated phone call and dealing with the stress of not having my medicines and belongings before receiving it
 Loyalty should mean more than earning miles, it should also mean receiving support when customers entrust Delta to take them to the destination even when things go wrong.  I expected better from Delta.  
The entire Delta service was extremely disappointing

### 5/5 — The DELTA experience! ✈️

*2026-08-26, version 7.14*

First time flying with DELTA.  I had a great experience! Thank you for your service!

### 5/5 — Fly high

*2026-07-12, version 7.13*

Flying Delta is in a different league 
Always have had a great experience with Delta

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-12, version 7.13*

The app is great. You can book, see your, flights, see your miles and status. Thats really all you need plus many more stuff that make it great

### 5/5 — Fantastic app. Get it

*2026-07-06, version 7.12.1*

Do not screw this app up! Great communication from delta to your phone. I’m sure if they could carry you to the terminal the app would. Fast comms when you need to see your gate. Love this app!!!!

### 5/5 — Such a wonderful user experience

*2026-06-15, version 7.12.1*

This is simply a wonderful app. I recently experienced 3 flight delays due to thunderstorms across the east coast. The Delta app immediately sends me a gate change update via the mobile app and text message. It has the most accurate flight information, so I don’t have to read the possibly outdated flight boards at the airport. I love how easy it is to access boarding passes and download them to apple wallet. I can’t say enough positive things. This app gives me peace of mind when traveling!

### 5/5 — La mejor ❤️

*2026-06-09, version 7.12.1*

Me encanto😌😍

### 5/5 — Best airline app in the US

*2026-06-02, version 7.11.1*

I fly constAntly and have top level status on all major IS carriers. Delta’s app is superior and beyond comparison. You literally never have to call the 1-800 number unless there are very unusual circumstances. As with all things regarding Delta, it’s the best in the industry and the best in the country and they continued to improve every day. I love this airline, I love their app, and I love their team members.

### 5/5 — AWESOME

*2026-05-31, version 6.7.1*

I use it a lot and I love it 5/5

### 5/5 — Flight back from Salt Lake City

*2026-05-28, version 7.11.1*

It has been a while but our flight was surprisingly convenient. My husband and I since it is our first flight with Delta, would like to appreciate flight crew’s smile and friendliness.  Another thing, wow, the leg room is very spacious, well enough for our tired old feet to stretch
And enjoy our flight back home.  Thank you Delta!

### 5/5 — 服务很好
