If it's unofficial it's likely just a web view container that loads the mobi site, they won't have access to any EK APIs to build actual native functionality. Microsoft is shifting away from Windows Mobile itself so doubt there'd be any active dev on Windows apps still

I got my first Android phone the other week so downloaded the app, but I've never been able to get it to work. All I get is "Sorry, we have a technical problem at the moment. Please try again later. Pull up to dismiss"
I've cleared cache and data, rebooted, and uninstalled and re-installed all to no effect. Phone is running Android 6.
Any ideas or suggestions?

I'm assuming you get the error during logging in? There was a period a month or two ago where I got kicked out and couldn't log in for several days, but it's been working fine ever since (and worked fine before that). Try updating your Google Play Services and check for an operating system update if you can get to Android 7 at least.

Why'd you get such an old phone? Latest version of Android is 8.

Play Services is up to date and I can't see a way to upgrade the OS. Where would I typically look as I can't see anything under "Settings".

I was overseas when my phone packed in and just wanted something to tide me over. This one cost the equivalent of only Ł45 GBP, or $62 USD, so I didn't mind if it was going to be thrown away when I got home, but I've sort of decided to stick with it for a bit. The error comes when logging in or even trying to skip the login.

Having problems with the watch and iPad app. Anyone else?
the watch doesn’t show notifications (on iPhone they show up fine) and the iPad just feels outdated and buggy at times. Last time the iPad app was updated was 2mothd ago.

The new revised app I noticed is working much better than before update, however it's annoyingly sometimes failing. Out of desperation I now first use other websites to look for schedule/availibilty/fares (on.EK) then go to the EK app in the hope it's working to reserve.This is of course not ideal. I notice no airline app is perfect however if EK put more effort into their app including by looking how others operate, then the EK app would be a lot better.

I deleted mine when it went tech a few weeks ago and then noticed it was no longer on the App Store. Quite annoying imo, especially because now wine lists are only available on the desktop site.
