Just tell him to logout. :confused:

In the original post he clearly states that he did ask them to log out. Guess you didn't read the whole post. :rolleyes:

I am not sure it will force log him out when he updates the app when there is a next release.

The OP has indicated multiple times that he doesn't trust his friend to take that action.

It never has before.

You can change seats, cancel reservations, change flights, cancel checkin, and more without logging in anew.

I trust my friend to not make any reservation or seat changes or attempt to book something under my name. But I do not trust him to logout at my request. Our friendship is complicated, OK?

What's done is done.. it's my fault for logging in to his phone but at the time I needed the help. Opinions on my choice of logging in to his phone or that I should just get him to log out are not needed in this thread..both are obvious and I completely get it. I was just wondering if there was a possible way to force a log out. Thanks to all who have replied.

And on another note..this message is a long time coming.. mahasatmatman has been a key contributor in this forum for a long time. He took a hiatus awhile back and when I noticed he had been gone awhile I sent him a private message just to see what was happening..and he replied it was just a choice of his to take a break for his own reasons.

I noticed he's been back for some time now and I just wanted to say welcome back, mahasamatman. You have a lot of good info to share with us. I haven't been to any DO's and have only casually met a couple FTers by chance over the years so my experience with community members are here in the forums...and having experienced and helpful folks like mahasamatman around makes this a great place to visit.

Why does he even have the app if he doesn't use it to check his account?

Because I do all the work for him. He cares, but knows that if I'm looking out for him he has no worries.

Gotcha. Thanks.

Sometimes I book his reservations from my account, sometimes his (but even when I book from his account I save to mine for easy access)...he's Silver and he travels alone and/or with other people frequently...when he flies with me I book in my account. I have his login info as well.. in fact I created his United account. He relies on me to book his travel, and I enjoy doing it as I do for many of my friends and colleagues. I'm a go-to guy for it.

And really it's not that big of a deal that he can see my bookings..but I also book travel for other people including business travel for people he doesn't even know..and when I do I save those reservations to my account. So he can see everything.

Again....I am not worried about any kind of fraud or dishonesty from this friend. I would just like to have the control to be able to log him out. If that doesn't happen life goes on and everything will be fine.

There are other situations that I can envision where it might not be OK...like an abusive spousal relationship and they have access to each others' info on their phones. I don't know. It just needs fixing.

United Android App - Reservations don't update
 

I'm currently running the United App (V2.0.18) on Android (Galaxy S5), and I've noticed that my existing reservations don't seem to ever update to reflect changes.

I had a change to a flight (changed from Wednesday to Thursday) and noticed the change shows up on the website, on my iOS app on iPad and on my wife's iPhone.... but no amount of hitting refresh on the Android app makes the reservation update.

Same goes for making seat changes on another reservation. While the seatmap in the app accurately will reflect my seat, the actual reservation page never shows changes.

Am I the only one experiencing this?

Works fine for me. Try logging in and out.

Same version on my HTC One M8 and as I flew over the weekend, it updated my Boarding Pass and Reservation when my CPU cleared at about T-2.

I did notice that that the Account Balance did not update until I drilled into my activity. The refresh did not do it. I had to drill into my activity and when I returned to the home screen the Account Balance was then updated.

Tried that, no luck. I ended up having to "clear application data" in the app manager. After that the reservation loads correctly. Hopefully this will solve the issue going forward.

If you report this it would be an easy fix to apply for the app guys.
Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind for now.

I noticed the same issue awhile ago (Android - Samsung Galaxy 4). Logging in and out was the only way to fix it, but that did work.
