Seat not updating
It doesn't appear that if you change your seat or get upgraded that the passbook ticket will update as well.
Doesn't seem to be a way to do it manually either (e.g. delete the pass and produce a new one with the correct seat. Was upgraded for both legs of my flight tomorrow but it doesn't say anywhere on the tickets.
That said, I'm otherwise very happy with the app so far.
Look forward to trying out the glass bottom feature on my iPad tomorrow.

Thanks DLCorpGuy!
We've beat you to the punch here: Delta iPhone app v2.0 now passbook compatible
You'll be happy to know that the comments are largely positive!

Overall, a big 
to the iPad app. The only semi-interesting feature is the globe. Oh, and you can read Sky Magazine. It seems that nearly everything just kicks you over to the Delta website inside of a frame. Booking trips. Managing existing trips. Changing seats. Profile. Wallet. The app itself does far less than the old app. And maybe it's just me, but I don't see the point of an app that just wraps around pages it pulls up in a browser.

You need to actually touch the Location Services tile (where it says "Location Services On" it has a arrow pointing right... go right and then scroll down to find passbook and make sure it is turned on...

No Reservations Listed
Under "Find My Trips", none of my trips are listed. I have logged in.
Above my name (when I pull down on the screen), it says "updating trip details" but then I get an "failed to update" error. It also indicates "last updated: never". So, I guess my trip data is not downloading to the app.
Anyone else having this problem?

iOS app v. 2.0-- this doesn't bode well.
Well, this is interesting. Just updated the iOS app. Showing as #1 of 4 on the list for 0 available upgrades tomorrow. Great, no problem. WFBF.
However, ExpertFlyer shows J3.
Curious. WATWBATW?

Not for the purposes of complimentary medallion upgrades-- which is what the app purports to show, right? Otherwise, why show it in the context of where you are on the list?
In the past, the number of available First/Business seats shown per the app has been dynamic; I imagine it changes as last-minute tickets are purchased, people SDC (though there's only one flight a week on this route...), etc.
But if there are 3 J seats available for purchase, why wouldn't there be at least three complimentary upgrades available, per the app?

DL may not have released V/Z fares yet because they think they can sell some more J fares.
