### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-08-14, version 8.0*

When you pay up it doesn’t deliver the info promised

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS SCAM APP

*2017-06-02*

THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM. THE FREE APP SHOWS YOU A NICE PAGE THAT YOU COULD HAVE IF YOU PAID UP. When you pay up, you get no information whatsoever, except union flags pasted on a map indicating vaguely where airports are. I threw away six quid on this scam because I urgently needed to know about a Gatwick departure. I have now got my money back from App Store, or iTunes or whoever it is in this mess. App Store say it can't police what's on its site and prospective purchasers must rely entirely on peer review. So isis could post a jihadist app on here and Apple wouldn't care.

### 1/5 — Caveat emptor

*2017-02-28, version 8.0*

### 3/5 — Not working!!!!!!

*2015-01-12*

All I keep getting is no record for the next 8 hours in the next 8 hours!!! that was 3days ago. Can someone explain why this is or I will try and somehow get my money back and report this!

### 1/5 — Do Not Download

*2014-07-26, version 6.3*

Am sat at LGW North terminal whilst writing this review; This App is utterly dire. App shows 1 x flight arriving and 1 x flight departing, incomplete list, complete lack of info. May as well park up, have a coffee and read the arrival boards in the terminal.

### 1/5 — So unreliable!

*2013-10-04, version 6.3*

Anna, I have been happy to pay for the extras in order to get up to date info. IT IS RUBBISH! This could be really good but numerous flights can't be found and I now feel ripped off!
GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!

### 1/5 — Gatwick Airport
