Interesting that your boarding passes group. My WN passes always group, but I've never seen my UA passes group together. Have they always grouped for you?

ok...b/c no OP is ever 100% honest about their situation, i'll come clean:
about 2 weeks ago I did spend about 1.5hrs deleting past tickets while sitting on a sfo/pvg flight. Figured that would cure the issue. Today, on pdx/den/dca journey, the pdx/den ticket showed on home page...but upon boarding in den, the den/dca ticket wouldn't show until i found it in wallet attached to pvg/sfo return flight.

It could be a memory issue, altho I would have hoped that by cleaning out 98% of old tickets I'd have been in the clear.

I've been having the same issue for months. Really frustrating because the boarding pass doesn't show up on my home screen and I have to dig into my phone to find it.

These type of issues will never get fixed since United will blame Apple, and Apple will blame United. Sucks!

Why do people maintain electronic BPs for months after a flight?

pruss2ny

Its nothing sentimental...its just when i complete a trip the first thing i'm thinking is NOT "gee, i should go into my electronic wallet and delete that boarding pass"

so, 150ish flights per yr, and the passes stack up. By the time my ocd kicks in and i decide to clean house, i realize that i have to go into EACH pass, one at a time, and click in 3! places to delete the pass

a better question might be why didnt the developer make it easier to delete passes?

A huge gripe of mine as well. All of my other wallet apps perform fine, this is unique to United.

I have the same problem, but haven't always. I think it was introduced somewhat recently.

There also used to be a setting to clear out all your old BPs, which appears to be gone now… or maybe it just got moved…

I agree completely that the developer dropped the ball in this case. That said, my OCD kicks in soon as the flight shows up on my United statement.

I just updated to iOS 11 and it seems easier to remove all those old passes now. It's still one-by-one (unless they are grouped) but its quicker to power through multiple.

1. Open the Wallet App
2. Scroll to the Bottom and Choose "Edit Passes"
3. Click the Red Minus Icon

First, you may want to back up and restore the phone via iTunes, to see if that solves the problem (and which is good housekeeping practice for iPhones anyways):

• If you're on iOS 10 and want to keep it:

• If you're ready for iOS 11:

If that doesn't work, it's time to file a bug report:

https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

Hopefully with enough reports, and people pointing Apple to this thread, they get it fixed soon.

(Of course, an upgrade to iOS 11 may fix the problem anyways, but some housekeeping never hurt in any case.)

Hi @Ocn Vw 1K --

Somehow a thread on the iPhone Apple Wallet and electronic tickets:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unite...le-wallet.html

was, oddly enough, merged into this thread about the United app:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/28833997-post952.html

(Posts #952 and later)

One is a program developed by Apple and built into the iPhone and used for various credit cards, various sporting tickets, various restaurant loyalty memberships, various airline tickets, etc etc.

The other is a program developed by United Airlines for Android phones and iPhones to store United loyalty information and tickets.

It would be like merging a thread about Google Maps and a thread on the LAX app together, just because the LAX app will show you a map to LAX.

I think the merge should be undone.

Thanks.

Not sure I agree. Seems more likely that the United app misconfigured the pass file than that something is wrong with Wallet. Have not seen any issues with anyone else’s passes.

Didn't even realize this until I saw the release notes even though I took advantage on Sunday. You can now get LH boarding passes for connecting flights! Before you couldn't even get the UA mobile bp if you were connecting onward to LH.

Can someone help me understand how the app sorts award flights when searching for a specific cabin, in this case Saver J awards? I’m taking a long trip in a few weeks, and I’ll be relying solely on my phone for connectivity. I’m going to try to change one or more of my long-haul *A award flights after I’ve left, so I’ve been using the app to try to prepare myself, but I simply can’t make heads or tails out of the award search results. It’s as if all the flights are dumped into an unordered list.

I’ve used the “Sort” and “Filter” functions; the latter helps a bit, while the former seems entirely broken. Ideally there’d also be a control to eliminate standard awards from the list entirely, but that’s a pipe dream.

For example, when I search for Saver J SFO>DEL for September 25, even when I ask the app to sort by price, I see a dozen mixed cabin Standard J awards, then some economy awards, and then buried in the list a single all-Saver J award on OZ, exactly what I was looking for. (The desktop website displays this itinerary first, just as it should.)

Am I missing something? Or is the app UI a truly broken mess?

I just noticed that myself a couple of days ago^ This has been working the other way, as well, for a while: BPs for UA segments in the LH app.
