Sorry for rants that are about to follow, but the Marriott app infuriates me. It has replaced SWA as the worst travel app I use. Half the time I give up and call the platinum number (which I absolutely love).

Oh come on, that's a joke of an excuse. This isn't 2000 where your options for cross platform development were all terrible like wxWindows, GTK or Java Swing. There is nothing truly complicated about the current Marriott app. I could design a better cross platform app in a weekend with Xamarin.

Right. This seems to be the mentality of phones/apps these days. They pile on a ton of crazy new features but not fix basic problems or add simple features that should have been there from the beginning. We have things like NFC payments, wireless charging, etc, etc... but Android still can't have a good interface for searching text messages?
