Worst Airline App Ever! Your boarding pass should be the most obvious thing to find and always readily available. Good luck finding it!!! Every time I close the app it says I have no trips planned and it requires me to search for my flight again (Even after creating an account- which was also ridiculously long and not easy)

App works properly, great to have when flying. Can track your flight and see your boarding pass. If you're flying Southwest, download the app. Would recommend. The only reason I deducted a star is that they canceled my flight and I never got an email telling me. If I hadn't been flying with 17 other individuals, I wouldn't have known to check my app or website. It just disappeared from my account like it was never there. The only way I knew, was by entering my confirmation #.
