Flight Board for Negative User Reviews

✓ My flight didn't even show up.Flight didn't show up on the monitor..EcodawnVersion: 1.3

✓ Nice looking app, but not useful when things changeRidiculously slow at updating flight information. Was still showing my flight hours after it was cancelled yesterday, and is still not showing either the gate or the delay to today's flight, even though I've been sitting at the gate for half an hour! So it looks ok until you actually need the information, at which point it proves to be pretty useless..BaldbeardieVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Missing many flightsAs reported months ago for Sydney airport, Melbourne airport only shows domestic arrivals plus flights from New Zealand. All other international flights are missing. Not useful if you need those flights..IFarishVersion: 2.1.2

✓ Flight boardTo hard... even sending this is to hard.HuneynVersion: 2.2.6

✓ Used to be my go-toI used to love this app but lately the adds have made it unusable. The margins to click on options are so small that I’d inadvertently touch an add that would cause a pop up I can’t get rid of. I’d have to turn off my phone completely to get this to reload to clear it, and now it won’t load any airport info at all.. just getting a blank screen. Ughhh.SnackyAndSonsVersion: 2.4.6

✓ Just ... WhateverI paid full price for this app through another app that was owned (at the time) by the same developer. The app I initially purchased is now gone from the App Store and I have been informed that I have no valid purchase info for the ‘Pro’ version of this app. There didn’t used to be a ‘Pro’ version. You unlocked ad-free or extra features from within the app itself. So I paid and then I paid and now I am expected to pay again; for what? To each their own. And until there is some sort of accountability, developers like this one can and will take your money and there’s nothing (by law) you can do about it. If any of you know how to make this nonsense cease, please tell the rest of us. Please..Fox7rotVersion: 2.4.2

✓ Missing FlightsSeveral inbound flights from CANADA to Cancun did not show on the flight board. If many flights are missing, how can travelers rely on it? The lack of ability to put in future dates is also a serious shortfall. Annoying ads without a way to remove them also rates 1 less star. I know the old Flight Board was by another company but until yours is a good as that one was, your ratings will be limited..Jhw56Version: 2.1.2

✓ Not to badCould do without the constant scrolling of codeshares and maybe add aircraft type. But a nice app..Geddy_2112Version: 1.4.0

✓ Unbelievable amount of data sharingI really suggest that users check through the “Permissions “ and unsubscribe from the many media and advertising companies that obtain data from this app, there are in the region of 100 different companies taking information from this app..Ash664Version: 2.4.2

✓ NEEDS MORE DETAILThe older version distinguished between actual regional airline subsidiaries instead of listing them under their parent company and you could sort by a specific regional airline. You could also sort by aircraft type. Made it very helpful with my line of work. This simplified version doesn’t help me out much..RyanC36Version: 2.2.6

✓ Only shows blank screens for both departures and arrivals.Used to be better. Not working now..Mazuma1951Version: 2.5.3

✓ Good app, butCan’t deal with the silly ads.AlienzarkVersion: 2.3.3

✓ Basically uselessFlight arrivals do not show the Gate # so what's the use of this app..OzTravellerVersion: 2.0.3

✓ CrashThe app crash each time when I try to each for the specific flight departure.MaintancenVersion: 1.3

✓ Map?Can’t find a map..Every nickname is taken?!????Version: 2.2.3

✓ Suggestion…The App would be even better if the local time and weather were available in landscape mode. We use an iOS device permanently-mounted, in landscape mode, to monitor arrivals/departures..Ivan R. LoockVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Don’t pay for this appI tried the free version was limited but can see the potential. So paid for full version and now it doesn’t display any gates. Emailed support to be told they were busy on many projects and have no fix. Refund is what I want. AVOID..Neil1977Version: 2.1.0

✓ Doesn’t have my flightNot showing the flight I’m taking shortly. Very retro flight board like UI showing less info than a simple more readable would. Doesn’t seem to have any easy jet flights. Doesn’t distinguish or search for different airports in a city (London has 4)..Benjohn BarnesVersion: 2.3.2

✓ Good for what it isThis app is good for basic information and replicates what you would see at the airport. No more no less. There is so much more info available that they could include (I.e. type aircraft, delay reasons, alerts via sms)..ZatchoutVersion: 2.2.0

✓ Good AppAccurate and updated often more than the airline apps, with numerous flights and routes throughout the day, however the new updates and aesthetic changes have made it less easy to navigate and too busy to look at the screen. There are more glitches and freezing than before and you can ONLY see flights for the current day, not next day flights unless it is around 11pm. Gate changes are not displayed upfront and it is not as current and efficient as it used to be. That being said, I still use it for the current day along with Flight Aware, which lets you Search 3 days past/future..St8 Shuter 4Version: 2.0.7

✓ Not for meFlights disappear far too quickly from view also not every flight is shown. Shame really as the concept is quite good it’s just not good enough.Redman1465Version: 2.2.1

✓ Not worth squatUnable to provide any info at all..KnockfiernaVersion: 1.4.0

✓ App freezesIn the last two months the app doesn’t populate information for a selected airport. Sometimes I’ll get the departures on the departures tab but not the arrivals on the arrival tab. Sometimes I don’t get anything on either tab. It appears to happen on most airports I look at..RCBC61Version: 2.5.2

✓ Imagine an app blackmailing you to give up your privacy?Well, that’s exactly what this app does! Agree to us and our advertisers tracking you and exporting data to locations unknown, and where the law might allow us to do things your country doesn’t … OR pay us to use the app. NB on the App Store there is no reference to I app purchases for this app. So does this means they’re breaching App Store policies. The app used to be convenient, but I can get the same information by going to the airport website, so no great loss really Deleted!.KGQVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Doesn’t updateI downloaded this specifically because I’m at the airport and my flight has been delayed. However the app doesn’t update it just shows the scheduled time.Pattaya inmateVersion: 2.2.2

✓ Heure du vol de Las Vegas disparueLe vol de Las Vegas 1274 qui avait été retardé et devait maintenant arriver à 3:28hrs est simplement disparu. En rejoignant, en texto, le passager que je viens chercher, celui-ci m’informe qu’ils arriveront à 5 hrs…très moyen comme appli..PepitobastVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Broken. Not workingNo longer working.Leno101Version: 2.5.3

✓ Incomplete data source2 stars just because of quick customer service reply, but unusable because not all airlines show on the board and apparently it can’t be fixed.PilotNLVersion: 2.1.7

✓ Does not workSitting on a plane in Nanjing waiting to leave for Hong Kong. Flight is already 2hrs delayed and flight board still shows as on time departure (Nanjing board) and arriving 14mins earlier than scheduled (HongKong board). Totally useless! Was trying to use this app to see if my onward connection was also delayed or not but given that this shows me landing in HK in the next 45 mins, and I’m still on the ground in Nanjing, would not trust this app one bit. Would give it zero stars if that was possible..SimjeessVersion: 2.2.2

✓ No info.In Singapore and the app does not display a single arrival, nor departure, for Changi airport. It does load for Australian airports!.Old RichardVersion: 2.2.2

✓ Very disappointingUsed this at Manchester Airport twice and both times inadequate. Virgin flight from JFK not listed. Simply inaccurate. Support link does not work - said device not set up for email... Also advertising pop ups too intrusive..GordonSteepieVersion: 2.2.1

✓ Don't waste your moneyThis app use to be amazing. Now you have to wait for the board to "flip" to even get cancellation or delay information. And if you type in airport codes, it doesn't recognize. You have to put in city names. Also doesn't give gate info until you click on the specific flight. Use to be on the basic first page. If you are in the aviation industry, don't waste your money. You will just end up wasting time..Flygirl5318Version: 2.0.7

✓ Annoying ads.Whilst ads fund the app, how they are used on this app is annoying,they block the info and can’t be moved.It's robberyVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Nice app but...So many ads beside just you have flights search option in specific arrival and departure,i would be better if we had direct flights search bar without choosing airport then dep. Or arriv. Its too long process or operation to find out your flight but overall the app is good and i recommend every one to use it..Haval BarwaryVersion: 2.0.7

✓ Not impressiveThe worse thing about the app is that any delays or cancellations are not updated on time. It takes hours before you get a new update. This defeats the purpose of having this app. I have deleted mine..Jay khanVersion: 2.2.6

✓ No gates shownTried many airports, but never seen gates displayed for any of my flights. Pointless application, though with decent interface..RafkatVersion: 2.2.6

✓ Now only showing domestic flightsStill showing only domestic flights and flights from New Zealand arriving today and only showing some other international flights as arriving tomorrow into Sydney. Doesnt show any flights arriving from USA. And I know there are flights arriving from USA today!.Jesa934Version: 2.1.5

✓ The Ad banners ruin the look of this app....what a shame....Why not have an iap to remove ads?.!.Ash200001Version: 1.3

✓ Not very impressive.Not very impressive. Similar to other apps with too many ads..Jeo49Version: 1.3

✓ Adds can’t be stoppedI used to love this app, now every time I open it I get an add coming up. There is an X in the top left corner of the screen to cancel it, but on my iPhone trying to touch it only pulls up the time display. When opening the add and agreeing to it and going back to flight but board the app blocks access again rendering this app useless. Very upset!.F104pittVersion: 2.4.2

✓ App is good, but the ads!!!!Terribly annoying app with the full-screen ads appearing every time you click back on the app. With a tiny little x to close the ad. There should be an ad-free paid version or the ads should not appear as often as they do. Needing to check traffic on the way to pick someone up and then clicking back in the app to see if the flight has landed, EVERY time a full-screen ad would appear. I’m so annoyed by this that I’m deleting the app. UPDATE: Thank you to the developer. I didn’t know about the Pro version. I just purchased it. It might be worth considering putting in some indication in the free version that a pro ad-free version is available..TD27Version: 2.2.0

✓ Is what it saysIt's a nice easy to use virtual flight board. It just falls down for me if I'm watching a flight for a pickup... It doesn't maintain my flight selection when I leave the app.DalamalaVersion: 1.3

✓ Flight board - not as good as it used to beCompared to how it originally was, Flightboard is terrible and not user friendly. It used to be easy to see which airlines and what kind of plane were taking off/landing and we used to use that to go up to Pearson to watch the planes we like - 747s and A380s. It’s just not simple and easy anymore. This is the first time I’ve been on in over a year, to see if it’s improved or gone back to the original format. It has not..CaspergirlyVersion: 2.3.3

✓ BlankShows nothing but an empty flight board.Tus12345Version: 2.4.6

✓ Review 1Hello. Should be a little more user friendly. Thanks..SAMOSAASVersion: 2.2.6

✓ Missing flightsCurrently Sydney Airport (SYD) is only showing domestic flights. Otherwise the app seems to work well..Kiwi abroadVersion: 2.1.2

✓ Missing flightsLooks like it only shows arrivals at a single terminal with no way of choosing. Many flights missing..FrasSmithVersion: 2.3.3

✓ Works great unless flight is delayed.This is overall very useful but as I write this, my flight is two hours delayed. My reason for 3-stars is that once the published departure time passed, the flight was/is no longer listed or searchable..Rye7689Version: 1.3

✓ Not that greatFlights disappear immediately after takeoff and landing. There should be a setting giving the option of a cutoff time for flight deletions eg 1,3,6,12hrs..IFone PhanVersion: 2.0.7

✓ Its okI bought the no ad version and then they changed the name slightly. They would not let me re download as I had already paid for it. Its a rip. Stay with the free version, which doesn’t work very well either😫.Coastiegirl57Version: 2.2.1

✓ Missing International FlightsI love the concept but this app is of little value to me because it fails to show most INTERNATIONAL flights in and out of Sydney’s Kingsford Smith Airport..Weetah 201JVersion: 2.2.1

✓ AdsI HATE the ads on every page!! It ruins the app’s beautiful look, there should be an option to upgrade to a version without ads..Jason.ParkerVersion: 2.4.1

✓ Nope* Asked me to turn on location services. Then picked the largest airport in my city. I see an option to delete airports but no way to add others. * Shows listings for the current day only. No option to check tomorrow. * A flight I knew was leaving today was not listed. * There is no indication that the pro version addresses these issues. So delete..Monk1010Version: 2.0.3

✓ Created a new pro version- same allTo make money they made this paid app as a free one and created a new app with the name as pro (same app) and making money.DrchandrusVersion: 2.4.7

✓ Shocking!Doesn’t even perform the most important task! I was tracking my sons incoming journey and it failed to show the 90 minute delay! What’s the point if the data isn’t live ffs!.Richard@682Version: 2.5.3
