### 2/5 — Unable use

*2026-01-08, version 4.2.0*

It shows my device jailbroken and refused to work, I know my iPhone model is quite old but it mustn’t jailbreak.

### 3/5 — Missing info

*2025-11-23, version 4.1.9*

Dining reservations missing…hmmm…

### 3/5 — Bluetooth pop up

*2025-11-04, version 4.1.9*

Still haven’t removed the annoying Bluetooth pop up

### 3/5 — Not Bad, but Could be Easily Improved

*2025-06-22*

I like the app. But there are some easy/obvious features I’d assume would be natural features, but aren’t there. (1). It knows I have reservations, but if it shows me the actual details of those reservations (room types, beds, confirmations, etc.), I’m overlooking where. (2) There is a nice “itinerary” feature that lists things like check-in, car services, excursions. Great. But, it does not show resort restaurant reservations. I understand that, the restaurants are via a different system, so I’m not griping about that. But I think that the itinerary feature should at least let the guest manually add their own items — such as restraint reservations, beach time, etc.  An incomplete itinerary is a pretty worthless thing. If the app allowed the guest to fill-in the other stuff manually, that would be a very useful improvement.

### 2/5 — Amateurs

*2025-05-05, version 4.1.2*

Apart from a subpar UX, the app repeatedly insists on Bluetooth permissions, even though the app is not running (even in the background), has no permissions at all, and is not indexed by Siri or Search. The request pops up at random intervals of days to weeks.
Developer says “it’s Apple’s fault”, yet no other app does this.
Deleted.

### 3/5 — The App does not work

*2025-03-03, version 4.0.12*

The opens and shuts down abruptly. I tried to delete it and reinstall it to no avail

### 2/5 — App  not useful

*2025-02-06, version 4.0.12*

It’s buggy and mostly marketing

### 2/5 — Deleting app until they can iron out bugs

*2025-01-11, version 4.0.9*

For starters stop making it keep asking me to turn on Bluetooth even when I’m not staying at one of your hotels.

### 2/5 — No iPad Version?

*2024-07-04, version 4.0.2*

2 stars because there isn’t an iPad version available. Sure, the iPhone version of this app runs on a iPad but it’s tiny. Also, and perhaps most notably, what happened to the Press Reader? It’s gone.

### 3/5 — New app is a downgrade

*2024-05-10, version 4.0.0*

This was a great App that I’ve been using for pre stay communication and while at FS properties. The new App is glitchy and the videos playing in the navigation pages makes for a terrible experience. Such a downgraded App now. What a bummer. 😔

### 2/5 — Bluetooth

*2024-03-03, version 3.9.10*

This app never shuts up asking for Bluetooth access… Ready to get rid of it. Definitely not surprised at the low ratings.

### 3/5 — Apple M1/M2

*2023-05-27, version 3.8.13*

Hi, the app seems to think running on an M1/M2 Macbook is 'jailbroken'

### 2/5 — Lovely resorts, terrible app

*2023-02-17, version 3.8.9*

Just gave up setting up my account and adding my stay so I could order breakfast because the process was slow, error-prone, and infuriating.

### 1/5 — Terrible app. Lousy account controls

*2022-10-10*

This is one of the most incompetently designed apps on Apple. How hard does it need to be to change a phone number attached to your account (and, no, it should not require opening a ticket). No UI feedback when choosing a date in the calendar, no confirmation screen when completing a booking, “preferences” is nonsense list of options that don’t reflect what you’ll actually need during your stay. Whole thing feels like a template. My experience with the properties: 5 stars. My experience with this “app”: 1 star. To the “app and accounts team”: Get it together. Less playing around and more getting the job done. It’s really isn’t rocket science to get this right. Serving hospitality and booking is a solved problem. You’re dragging the brand down.

### 2/5 — Great hotels, terrible app

*2022-08-17, version 3.8.0*

Did any Four Seasons staff ever use this app?

### 1/5 — Such a poor app for such a good chain

*2022-07-12, version 3.7.2*

Terrible app. Difficult to use. Keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — STOP BLUETOOTH REQUEST

*2026-04-14*

This God awful app most be the worst possible thing every developed after 2010; it’s a complete shame that a company like FS cannot hire a team that designs an app that would not ask for bluetooth connections *the whole time*. It’s absolutely unbearable and makes me delete and reinstall the app every time I stay at a FS hotel. You cannot keep this app on your phone or it will drive you crazy. You can deny all permissions, deactivate notifications, it won’t matter. There’s no escape.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-04-09*

App not up to four seasons standards.  Entered last name and reservation number and it says can’t find it.  I call resort and they confirmed reservation and suggested trying a different confirmation number that also didn’t work.  Last thing I want to waste time with on a vacation at a wonderful resort is trying to work with a broken app.

### 1/5 — Just doesn’t work

*2025-12-16, version 4.2.0*

The app didn’t recognize my confirmation number to create an account, so I went to create an account without adding my current itinerary. The text code never came through, so I gave up and deleted the app. I’ll hike to the lodge to ask my questions instead.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2025-12-14, version 4.2.0*

Constantly throwing a pop up asking for access to Bluetooth, which I don’t want to grant. This happens even though the app is not open and hasn’t been used for months. I’m deleting the app.

### 1/5 — Room service??

*2025-12-04, version 4.1.10*

I can’t figure out how to order in-room dining even though the in-room dining menu directed me to download the app. It couldn’t find my reservation either.

### 1/5 — Shocker

*2025-04-21, version 4.1.1*

Terrible app always crashes very frustrating

### 1/5 — Rarely wkrks

*2025-03-24, version 4.1.1*

The chat feature rarely works. I’ve deleted and re installed, then it stopped working again.

### 1/5 — Needs an account to get rates

*2025-02-22, version 4.0.12*

In order to get rates app is now asking to set up an account. I removed the app and will book elsewhere

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2024-11-04, version 4.0.6*

Terrible App as it never automatically uploads your reservations and when you try to add a reservation to your itinerary it doesn’t recognise the confirmation number. Such a lost opportunity for such a great brand to drive engagement with their customers.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2023-12-31*

This app is embarrassing for the Four Seasons brand. I tried repeatedly to cancel a reservation using the app and it keeps saying the message isn’t received.  If you can’t manage your reservation on the app what is the point?  I’ll use the Bonvoy App to make a reservation at the Ritz Carlton next time — easy to use and get points.  After all the money I have spent at Four Seasons it is clear they have no loyalty program to recognize frequent stayers.

### 5/5 — Great travel app

*2026-02-28*

Everything is easily searchable and right where it needs to be. Staff responds quickly (especially at the lanai location). Always a pleasure visiting four seasons resorts

### 5/5 — Four Seasons App

*2024-02-19, version 3.9.9*

I have been using the Four Seasons app for a couple of years and lately I have been using it more and more as it is so convenien.
I recently stayed at the Four Season Whistler and the chat feature is my favourite as it made it easy to book my trip, plan my trip and anything that I needed at all.
The Four Seasons chat helped me so much on all my daily needs, thank you Whistler Four Season team.

### 5/5 — Great app that works smoothly

*2023-09-06, version 3.8.20*

Very nicely put together app that shows all upcoming reservations and travel arrangements. Can see lots of detail about each property and all the activities and services at your current stay. 
Very easy to chat directly to the resort which is helpful.

### 5/5 — great app thanks to great people on the other end

*2023-04-18*

I love this app for communicating with a property, particularly while onsite and particularly while in a foreign country where I don’t speak the language. Of course my many positive experiences with the app are because of the great customer service we have received from the FS team members staffing the other end of the communication.

### 5/5 — Doesn't work on Apple Silicon Macs

*2022-07-03, version 3.7.2*

This app thinks I am on a jailbroken device, I am using an Apple Silicon Mac, please fix this!

### 5/5 — Nice.

*2020-12-27, version 3.2.8*

I love it that they have different suites.?

### 5/5 — Designed for everything your heart desires

*2020-03-30, version 3.1.6*

This app allowed me to order and request all of the things! From robes to food to classes. Didn’t even have to speak to a single human.

### 5/5 — Finally a hotel that’s stepping into the 21st century

*2019-09-28, version 3.0.3*

The messaging function is a god send. Not sure about the rest but so far so good

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2019-08-25, version 3.0.0*

Amazing service through the app.

### 5/5 — Just brilliant.

*2019-04-13*

I absolutely love this app when staying at the FS. Quick to respond to chat. I use it several times a day. In Asia, language can sometimes be tricky. Not with the app. Brilliant staff, brilliant app. Highly recommend.
