Ratings and reviews

Samsung Galaxy S22 here. 75+ apps on my phone that are formatted fine where I don't need to change the font size of my entire phone EXCEPT for this one. It's virtually unreadable without doing so. Font is too big. No push notifications. Calendar integration lacking (details in notes only, not header). Requires a data connection to even OPEN the app despite its claim to have offline/downloadable schedule. What a mess. Edit: one year later still bad. Push notifications won't work when updating.

User interface is terrible, layout in illogical. Overall experience is marginally more usable than the new website but that isn't saying much. You have to go through multiple menu pages just to get to a schedule layout almost as usable as the previous website layout, which was far more usable in my opinion. Offline schedule viewing doesn't work at all which is annoying when you want to review your schedule at work, on an airplane..

You can't use the app for much, this forces you to use a portal, from there you can't see half the information when you click on a trip, doesn't matter if it's in landscape. Scrolling or trying to read the trip is impossible. Also the copy function doesn't work on phone numbers or addresses. (Android)
