Sorry I was at an event. But yes, I cleared data to remove 3GB of logs, then signed in, and 18 bookings are present. Much better than before.

Ran into a fun couple of bugs:
1. Won't let me retrieve bookings or connect to Aeroplan on my home network where I block
trackers network wide via DNS (similar to the issue with logging in to AC.com/aeroplan.com)
Works on cell net/VPN
On my end, have no plan to change the blocking list.
Fun fact, this also happens with my Roomba.
2. On a VPN, cleared data and cache, logged into aeroplan, it didn't pull the flights I have (I assume it's due to AC for business), closed the app, and it consistently crashed on startup. Yay. Wiped cache and cleard data, started up the app, logged into aeroplan and added an itinerary manually. Works like a charm.

Really annoying that AC and in this case iRobot feel they can just collect data wholesale. It doesn't even need a cloud connection to function, as I've disabled the saved maps. Same thing with AC, let me login without tracking, or at least let me opt out. (Though as a European citizen, it would probably have to be opt in under the GDPR, which is better.)

I didn't have any option to delete under more. An update was available in the play store and sure enough there is a remove pass option now.
There is also an Aeroplan tab now and all my upcoming flights are listed after I logged in. v5.0.0 (1911062102)

According to the Apple App Store it has been offically released as version 5.0, see https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/air-canada/id326459697
The App Store on my phone is offering this as an update to my current version. Generally I like living on the bleed edge and updating as soon as possible. Based on past experience with the Air Canada app, I'm waiting on this update.
