Yes, called as voluntary downgrading!

Enjoy!

A kind smallish request of keeping the threads clean, without LOLs and other "so funny" stuff.

The aim should not be the 10000 mostly irrelevant posts limit?

I beg your pardon?

If you have issues with me, either take it up directly or contact a moderator.

I've found an irritating "feature" of the boarding passes created in the App.

In short, when adding a boarding pass to Apple wallet no date, time or location is set for the wallet pass. This makes wallet pretty crippled, as wallet sorts all passes by date, moving Finnair passes out of sight. Also, Wallets fails to display the pass at the appropriate time/place as it does not know what that time/place is!

Anyway, I've made a lengthy report to the development team. If someone has similar issues on andriod now might be a good time to give them feedback on this!

My frustration comes from the fact that the app doesn't exist for Windows But that is probably something that only bothers me

Well thanks for writing the report to them about this. I've been waiting for too long when it comes to displaying the bp on the lock screen.

All it takes for that to work is to add the relevance section in the json, in particular the relevantDate (bolded). They don't need to provide the location data from this example, so basically a few lines of coding is needed. Should take less than half an hour to fix, test and deploy...


Code:
    {
        ...
     
        "description" : "Example pass showing relevance information",
        "locations" : [
            {"latitude" : 37.3229, "longitude" : -122.0323},
            {"latitude" : 37.3286, "longitude" : -122.0143},
            {
                "altitude" : 10.0,
                "latitude" : 37.331,
                "longitude" : -122.029,
                "relevantText" : "Store nearby on 3rd and Main."
            }
        ],
        "relevantDate" : "2014-12-05T09:00-08:00"
    }

I've been told they are indeed looking into the issues with wallet and show on lock screen. Let's hope it soon finds it way into a release!

They might as well add the Wallet button to the top of the QR code, no need to scroll down and for new users it would be easier

I started to use AY app a week ago when returning to credit flights to AY+.

How often does the flight details update?
- I have a flight in 9 hrs
- I checked in yesterday using the App (iOS)
- I can't see my BP in the app
- Last update of flight was "1 day ago".

Is there a manual update option or should I just wait for the BP to appear?

It should be updating every time you open. Force close app and restart?

Did that, no help. Re-installed the app, and after that no reservations can be found on my account. Tried to add PNR:s manually, but "Another frequent flyer number is already added to the booking".

Nice app when it works, but at least today I must use Wallet instead.

What about BPs, I suppose the app doesn´t store them? Do you store them always in your wallet in case you need to retroclaim for points?

My first feelings about this App were great, it included lot of nice features and looked to be really useful. But it failed already before my second flight of the year. I have not managed to get my bookings visible anymore, I have tried different tricks.

But when I login using another AY account that has same PNRs it works like it should. But when I log out and login as myself it just shows nothing.
