App on time!
I am in CPH right now. My flight is delayed almost 2 hours now, and the BP in the app has updated. It shows the new boarding time. But it also shows an optimistic green label "on time", and updating does not change it. It is an interesting UI concept, to be on time, when the original arrival time would have passed, by the time we shall start to board.

I've had the App show 'on time' for a cancelled flight (cancelled just prior to departure), so I don't take the 'on time' message very seriously.
I rely on the airport screens.
Add : not on a BP, just the normal place in the App where you see your next flight.

It used to be completely useless with regards to time updates, I've had some recent delays where the app did update as expected and pushed a message to the lock screen of my phone.
I'd also appreciate gate information that would update by itself if they could get around to it in between adding useless sudoku and maps features. It would be wonderful if an airline app actually provides accurate and updated data during your travel. Fortunately most others do.
