Thanks for the tip. Just downloaded it - much easier to use than the mobile web site from my brief play with it.

Same look as the iphone apps, with one added function - "Changed bag rules and optional services" above the "Click to Refresh".

Seems to be working correctly intermitently - it is able to push all my upcoming flights. However, occassionally the Reservations count goes to 0 and all my upcoming flights disappear - reappear only if I go to my account and click on Upcoming Flights to update the reservations.

I am glad it has finally been released, just downloaded it :D

However, it is having issues displaying the standby and cleared list on many flights... When I press on the Stand by list nothing happens.... Try viewing the Standby list for tonight's UA 456 LAX-IAD...

Good to see it is available, just downloaded it!

Thanks! just downloaded it.

its a rebrand pretty much of the CO app with access to the UA information... which is great!

Anyone familiar with the CO app will be at home here other than a couple of small changes.

Thanks. Nice thing about this app is once you sign in, unless you sign out, you don't have to enter FF# and password on next visit. Much better that other versions.

Nice, very slick so far.

hooray!! thank you, UA! Been eagerly awaiting this. The UAL mobile website is clunky on my droid.

Editing to add..... there is one thing that could be improved. It's great to see a booking tool on the app, but it returns only CO and UA operated flights. UA codeshares don't show up. Specifically, I'm looking at BOS-DCA, and all it gives me are connections via EWR and CLE.

Thanks!!!

It's about time. Welcome to the future, UA, it's been waiting for you.

In playing with it, I've noticed that you can't access or update your seat assignment under 'Reservations'. I'd definitely find that capability useful.

Cool, thanks OP. Dowloaded already and will check it out tonight :)
