FlightTrack 5 App Reviews

Ryanair not present

Ryanair not present neither in flight nor in arrival table at the airport

yep

importing by forwarding to trips@expedia is still in nosedive. received in app with reordered flights of trip and some flights missing entirely. this app has been given up upon. looking for another -- each time forwarding flight info to expedia email address only capture legs of departing flight, never the return flight no longer able to manually add individual flights to a single trip, must be entered into app as separate trip -- a reinstall of the app has it opening and functional (iphone 6, ios 8.1) companys twitter account indicates a tripit synching substitute upcoming in an update...waiting... hoping for interface to be formatted for larger devices in updates -- revision: after updating to ios 8 on an iphone 5 (and with iphone 6), the app begins to open and then crashes immediately. every time. -- old review -- it is pretty. novelty of the interface wears off quickly when you often have multiple itineraries...that you would like to sync...and cannot. it is as if you (mobiata) did not grasp that among a few other features (including live updates), the ability to sync itineraries was one that MADE this app. other than a glitzy look that newbies who know no better will salivate over, what really makes this app worth having? how is it different from the next shiny flight tracker? i do not have an answer. this redesign implies that you do not, either. this application is no longer the workhorse of traveling professionals. when function catches up with form (hint: sync), i will update this review. to others out there - save your money.

Nice interface, but not accurate

When watching a flight recently, I got a notification that the flight would arrive 32 min early, then 46 min early, then 8 min early, then that it had arrived 18 min early. The last one didnt agree with the scheduled arrival time. The others didnt agree with the airlines app. So its a nice looking app, but cant be depended on for information.

Avoid - Terrible

The older version (Flight Track Pro) worked great. This new version doesnt. -no TripIt Support -erases all non syncd data during version upgrades -navigation is overly complicated How this is an essential is beyond me.

So buggy

This app is now so buggy. I cant seem to add flights half the time and when I do add them I cant delete the trip without the app crashing. And after crashing its still not deleted. What a disappointment.

Awful- no longer integrated with Tripit

Had the description explained that this no longer links to Tripit, I would not have spent the $5. Now I want my $5 back. Just awful.

Only needs one tiny adjustment

I would love to see the trip display order reversed, or a setting allowing you to sort the display order. I travel frequently and sometimes if I need details I have to scroll all the way to the bottom, through all my past trips, to get to my current trip. The app slows a bit during scrolling, so having the newest trips at the top would make it perfect. Otherwise, a very good and useful app.

Needs more search options

Doesnt let you search by airline or flight number. I cant find any of the flights I search for. The old one was way better...

Useless if you are not an expedia Customer

I thought that having a watch app would make my life more convienient. I do not book my flights with expedia, my reservations and booking comes from corporate travel. I got the app because you could upload confirmation emails to handle that. However, it did not matter, I hd to manually input the flights, but this doesn’t really do as well as my existing app that also updates my calendar. When I send the confirmation emails to expedia it doesn’t post them Tripit works much better. Never had a problem in the 10+ years I use them. So this was a waste of money. If you book through expedia it probably will work for you, but if you use some other service don’t waste your time or money.

Crashing when searching for flight.

Please fix ASAP. I searched for BWI to BOS on Nov 6 and it just freezes up and eventually crashes.

Great until last update

App now lags and glitches since last update. Really annoying. Has a lot of cool stuff though.

Not so useful

A bit a waste of money. Flightboard seems a lot better

Not very useful

It frequently fails to display gate info and doesnt show essential info such as boarding time. Pretty useless. Also this doesnt work for connecting flights. And it fails to do its one job, track flights, when there is even a slight delay in the flight plan! Good job selling this junk to expedia to turn a quick profit.

SYNC

whats the point of the sync feature if it cant sync and save your trip history? Pointless app. I still mostly use the old version which actually did everything right.

iCloud

Why was iCloud sync feature being dropped? Can you get the feature back?

Awful compared to original version

This new UI is awful, the useful information like flight duration and terminal is buried away. I actually went to the wrong terminal for my flight because of it. The devs of this app should really throw away this version and go back to the original that was much better designed and even synced with tripit.

Fails to sync across devices

The design is quite good and the functionality is solid, however this out fails to sync flight information between my iPad and my iPhone. Rather than using a standard login service such as iCloud or Facebook they force you to use Expedia, which would be fine if it actually functioned and synced properly, however it fails to sync. I would love to either get a functioning app or my money back. :(

Old Version Much Better

A big step backward. Im going to delete the new one and stick wit Flight Track 4.

Missed my flight because of this app

I would add screenshots if I could... App told me my flight was delayed (flight 548 from Houston on 12/6) an hour. So I stopped and bought some $10 beers at the airport. And turns out it wasnt delayed at all and the flight left without me. DO NOT BUY unless the app is giving you money for the flights it will make you miss. Would give it negative stars.

Solid update to flighttrack!

I have been a long time user of flighttrack pro since the beginning. When flighttrack 5 originally came out, the reviews were so poor, I stuck to the original flighttrack. I decided to finally go ahead and get flighttrack 5, and I have been very impressed! There is clearly attention paid to every small detail, and the UI is very pleasing to look at. The flight data is accurate, and tripdeck is free and works well. So far very pleased with the purchase!
