  • Great app!!

    This United app is the best! Alerts you when itโ€™s time to check in, alerts you when to board and you can also track your luggage!! Another cool feature is this app can also guide you through any airport. Iโ€™m so impressed with all the features of this app! Helped making traveling very smooth!!

  • Not enough specifics

    Not enough information was provided which was specific to my fare class. I had to do external research just to find out if I had to pay for my carry on bag.

  • Buggy live flight following

    After a flight has ended, the live action report on the dynamic island does not go away, even after force closing the app. Please fix!

  • United baggage check-in

    The way the screen is set up. It would not let me put my address in and I had to wait a long time before I was able to get onto the place where I could sign in, but I finally did it. It was very complicated.

    • Bad info about carryons for transatlantic flights

      The app had info that our flight didnโ€™t include a carryon for us based on our ticket type. Our confirmation email said otherwise. After a long time with chat bots and customer reps we finally got to the bottom of it and for transatlantic or transpacific flights we are allowed. Ugh. Would have really helped if the info that pegged our confirmation email was linked to the applicable bag policy in the app

      App keeps telling me I donโ€™t have an internet connection when I do. Because it thinks I donโ€™t have a connection it wonโ€™t give me my boarding pass.

    • App seems to purposely make it hard to prepay for your checked bags at a discounted rate.

      Bags are cheaper to check in when you prepay for them 24 hours before your flight. But this app has a labyrinth of links that refuses to load for prepayment during this discounted period. But thenโ€ฆ once youโ€™re within 24 hours, itโ€™s all of a sudden very easy to pay for your checked bags at a regular rate. I already disliked United (this was the only available flight for my recent trip), but the audacity of this is infuriating and I will absolutely take my business elsewhere.

    • Live Activities Battery Drain

      I love the United app, but the latest update with live activities absolutely kills my battery. United should reduce the amount of information shown to reduce battery drain (e.g., the countdown to boarding, etc). Until then, I've had to turn this feature off, as I can't have my battery draining that quickly when I travel.

      I absolutely did NOT authorize a $25 charge for travel insurance (I NEVER have bought travel insurance, and NEVER will), yet now I see a charge for that! ROBBERY, pure and simple, no different than walking down the street and having someone pick your picket!

    • Make check in seamless

      I gave this 1 star because it seems I STIIL have to toggle around, find my confirmation code, remember it because I could seem to copy and paste it, search through a menu to find โ€œcheck inโ€ type in my code and my own last name before I could check in. REALLY??? Why do I log into and app, see my flight but not have a simple button that allows me to check in. If there IS a simpler wayโ€ฆ Make it simple to find.

    • Trouble with latest version (May 17, 2023)

      I travel out of the country frequently and with the latest app version I am unable to log on without first deleting the app from my phone, and reloading it(apple phone). I can log in only once before having to repeat the process when I need to check the app again. NOT convenient at all especially when Iโ€™m traveling out of the U.S. Such a hassle when phone data isnโ€™t always readily available. I donโ€™t feel confident I will have access to the app when I need it most.
      I find the app easy to use and offers what I need when I donโ€™t have this log in problem.

    • United Airlines experience

      I was so excited about my first trip alone-ever and the Springfield, MO airport employees were very friendly and helpful!!
      Then I made my way to the gate and the United desk was just as pleasant! I donโ€™t recall his name but the reassurance I got was fabulous!!!! I made a couple of mistakes booking my trip but info was so helpful for my return home from Denver!!
