Barely does the job. when you check in, it doesn't retain the flight info most of the time. Manage reservations? blank. You have to enter it again. If you leave the app and come back, it often resets everything or wastes time reloading. These issues have persisted for years. And now, if you change your seat, it doesn't change on your boarding pass or even the info screen. So, what seat do I have? It's almost better just using their web page than this mess.

terrible app. I am trying to just see my boarding pass when I am getting on a plane, should be simple right? Yet somehow this simple task is requiring me to recheck in each time, and just overall cumbersome to use. Then on top of that, I get pop up ads to buy more of your terrible flight service? I already paid you and you still gotta do that just to inconvenience people who already paid you? Never again.

App works properly, great to have when flying. Can track your flight and see your boarding pass. If you're flying Southwest, download the app. Would recommend. The only reason I deducted a star is that they canceled my flight and I never got an email telling me. If I hadn't been flying with 17 other individuals, I wouldn't have known to check my app or website. It just disappeared from my account like it was never there. The only way I knew, was by entering my confirmation #.

Checking bags is the worst. It's bad enough southwest doesn't give me free checked bags anymore, but they made adding checked bags very cumbersome and not user friendly. It's not easy to find where to add a checked bag, and then when I do find it it asks me to sign in. In the app. That I'm already signed into. And since I'm already in the app I can't look up my number to log in again. The other plane apps make adding checked bags very easy. Southwest needs to make it easier, too.

Frustrated that there's been no improvement to Flight Status. Idk why companies think they always have to change apps and so often, they're worse. You used to be able to delete recent searches, but now they just stack up without being able to get rid of ones you no longer need. On top of no demarcation between, like they're used to be (much more esthetically pleasing in the old format). On top of that, when you initially Submit, the info is NOT updated. You have to refresh the page every time.
