Boarding pass not available in the App

I was unable to download the boarding pass in the (android) app for my outbound flight (to VIE) on Friday, so had to get it printed at the desk. I thought it was probably some problem with the booking,so didn't bother too much. Today though I've had the same problem with the return, which was on a separate booking. I've been able to check in, but the app takes me to the Web version of check-in, which refers me to the app for mobile download.

I've cleared data and re-logged in to the app, and made sure everything looks OK in manage my booking, including the advance passenger data.

Any ideas? Do I need to just phone BA to sort it out?

Thanks

There have been a couple of updates on the Android app, including a short-lived version which didn't work very well for me. The working one is from Friday I think. Did you update it recently?

I last updated 20th of November, but there aren't any updates available, so probably not that.

More strangely, we got boarding passes at the airport and now online check-in has closed I've been able to download the boarding pass.

A couple of things I forgot to say: my wife has had the same happen on her phone with the same bookings. And last weekend our apps worked fine.

I have seen this happen when there was document check required before issuing the boarding pass. In my case it was a visa check.
