I made the BIG mistake of uninstalling the app to reinstall but it was then i realized i had an older version and i couldn't install anything. So i called Hilton Honors, complaining about the lack of insight to this new app and if anything would be provided to get the old app back for older phones. I pretty much got 'we're sorry'. Aside from rooting your phone (which i don't know how to do) i did some serious searching that had the old versions of the Hilton Honors app to download the APK. Thank goodness that i now have the old version back again. The older versions are listed here for the downloads:

Again, i hope this saves some frustration for us Hilton Honors members who don't necessarily run out and buy the newest in phones and made the mistake i did. I spend approx. 40+ overnites/year and use it quite extensively.
Welcome.

This is been discussed. Being a newbie, take a minute to review the forum an get the "lay of the land".
Don't upgrade the Hilton android app!
