The app is great
Feb 28, 2019 I read through the reviews and took issue with most of them. People qualify themselves as frequent fliers and then mention that this app is dysfunctional...as an Executive Platinum member (i.e.- I fly), I find this app highly capable. I find it useful in every way that I need it to be. I’m able to book revenue and award tickets, I’m able to select my seats, and when my upgrade processes I’m able to recheck my seat in the new cabin. I’m able to check-in and I find the app to be very useful in receiving flight updates. My company uses concur, and the moment my flight is reserved in concur it shows up in the app. I’m able to understand if my flight may be impacted based on the app-provided “inbound” flight, and I’m able to live-track my baggage in the event that I check bags. I’m not sure what people expect from an app, but in reading the reviews it seems that people are hoping that the app somehow will solve all of their travel nightmares, but I’m afraid those are classic weather, mechanical, and customer service issues.more -
Made whole trip convenient!
Jul 17, 2019 This app really made my travel experience easy not just in terms of getting flight and boarding info, but also navigating unfamiliar airports quickly. I didn’t need to enter any info to have my reservation front and center, and it filtered out legs of my trip that I completed (though they’re still accessible) The app has a map of each airports on the reservation, with their terminals/gates, and marks where the gate is in the map. You can also get directions if you want to. I had very short layovers and needed to get quickly to my next gate, and this app made figuring out where and how I needed to get there effortless. In addition it shows nearby airport restaurants and other things by name on the map. Also, when browsing restaurants, it pre-filters them based on where you’re at. It even has their menus, which I appreciated b/c I eat GF and wanted to know ahead of time if it would be a waste of time to eat somewhere. The map loaded fast too, and didn’t chug when I scrolled/zoomed. The confirmation reminders helped me not forget to do it, and the boarding passes added to passbook in the proper order (small detail but other apps have messed this up or don’t add all boarding passes for a multi-leg trip). Bottom line - I always felt the most relevant info to me at the time was present, was easy to find, and never slowed me down. Best airline app experience I’ve had. Don’t change anything!more -
Reliable information, very professional. No stress!
Jan 31, 2018 Unlike some others, I do find this app intuitive. Love being able to see inbound flight info, and updates for flight information is very timely. I feel like I have an inside track because in many cases, I have learned about gate changes and other info before formal announcements. Seat change requests are accurate, and I’ve never been let down. When traveling, we rely on having accurate information and having control, and this app helps me keep the stress level down because I never have to guess. Yes, sometimes the in-flight entertainment is glitchy, but I’m on a plane sharing a small network with many users so I’ve stuck to using data, only for work, and viewing downloaded movies or listening to downloaded music. There are too many other entertainment options out there these days for me to hold this against the app when that is not it’s main purpose.more -
Oct 27, 2020 I would give it 5 stars, but when you check in with app, you still have to go to the kiosk. If you check in online and take care of the luggage, you should be ablevto go straight to the counter.more -
Oct 17, 2020 3hr flight, entertainment option won't load, using android phone. Passenger next to me could also not get entertainment link to load. Others on plane were viewing ok. Not sure if droid issue.more

Oct 24, 2020 I used to love using this app. It was reliable with all the features I needed. However as of late I can no longer pull up my current boarding pass at the airport. I can see all kinds of prior BP's but not the one I would need at that time. This causes a scurry to get to a kiosk and print my pass. If this was corrected I would be back to giving 5 stars.more -
Oct 26, 2020 I can not even get myself signed in. It stops on my phone number telling me I must have 10 digits and I do and it will not recognize it. I have done this twice. I hope someone reads this and can help me or the app.more -
Oct 10, 2020 I updated the app today and it is no longer usable. Now it keeps stopping and closes itself shortly after it opens. I've force stopped the app, cleared its cache, restarted my phone... nothing has helped this problem.more -
Very Little Versatility
Dec 6, 2019 I would bet that I am in the top 1% of time spent using the app as I fly often. I have many ideas for how it can be improved, but the first would be to make it to where cash and miles redemption values are pulled, preferably shown simultaneously, at the same time like in Delta’s app. Second, multi-city search should be an absolute no-brainer. Third, adding a filter to flight results for departure time (slider), arrival time (slider), flight duration (slider), cost (slider), class (I hate that Basic Economy shows up as it makes Sorting on Price cloudy just like on the website), and connecting city (check boxes). Fourth, being able to add more the one origin airport into a search would be very convenient. Fifth, GoGo Entertainment App is a nuisance - buying WiFi and accessing entertainment during flight should all happen in-app (I’m sure this is the most difficult as info would pull from many sources.) Sixth, the boarding passes added to Apple Wallet should disappear on their own after a flight has occurred. All of the above should be the standard for an airline’s app, excluding the WiFi and Entertainment all in one place.more -
Amazing how bad this app still is
Dec 13, 2019 I use the app every week as i travel that much. Its amazing to me that after being at this for so many years, AA STILL doesn't understand what travelers need. there are many annoying things that i wish they would solve already. 1). I live in PR, the area to store my CC information does not accept PR as a state or territory for my address. PR has been part of the US for 100 years. I’ve reported it several times but they either ignore it or cant figure it out 2- the app used to have multi-city functionality, it was taken away, so, we are going backwards? 3- i often get an “error 504” when paying for tickets, its annoying as it forces one to have to start again 4- if one is traveling outside the US, it defaults to the local language, the Language chOice option is not permanent, it should allow language preference regardless if where you are. 5- luggage tags should be added to the electronic boarding pass. 6- there should be a “order of presence for CCs, meaning which ones to use first, second, etc. The list of suggestions can go on and go, but first, fix the problems.more

I love this app! By far the best airline app!
May 8, 2019 I didn’t realize how much I love the American Airlines app until traveling on a couple different airlines recently and I really came to appreciate it. I get notified immediately through push notifications when there are any delays, flight changes, etc. and it also updates all the information on the boarding pass in my Apple wallet. I expected this from another airline and didn’t receive it - got all the way to that gate and then customer service before finding out a flight was cancelled, which never would’ve happened on American! Everything, including same day flight changes is a breeze to do in the app, and I also have been able to reschedule flights easily: I got notified that my flight delay would cause me to miss my connection and was offered other flight times that I could book immediately. Huge fan of the app and of American!!more -
Great App, Continuous Development
Jun 24, 2019 I just opened my app in order to check in for my flight tomorrow from BOS to ORD. Upon refresh, I received a notice that they were looking for volunteers to take a different flight and wanted to know the minimum I would accept to switch. It said my choice had been noted and if needed I would be called to the desk tomorrow! Wow! That’s using technology to prevent fires instead of always fighting them. There is bad weather across the country and they are really working to prevent as much pain as possible at the airport tomorrow. I have one suggesting and this app will be simply the best in breed. For upgrades, please put the number of seats available along with the number of people checked in. That way you have a bit more of an idea if an upgrade is even possible. Currently, you can see your name of the list but not how many seats are available to begin with. Delta does this and I love it!more

Hmmm..
Oct 25, 2018 I don’t understand so many of these reviews complaining about so many things that I’ve 100% been able to do on this app. I can load all the boarding passes for connections on my trips (you do have to add each individual one to your wallet, but that’s not hard). The app is fairly up to date with my flight info usually. I can check in to my flights through it. I never have to look up my trips with record locators (I do always book my flights through the app though, so maybe that’s why). I love that it tracks my checked luggage, fairly accurately too. I can’t speak to the in flight entertainment, I never bother to use it. If the plane doesn’t have in seat screens, I just use my Kindle or Surface Pro to watch downloaded Netflix or Prime Video stuff. I travel frequently, almost always on AA, and it has made traveling easier for me.more

Reliable app, bad video integration
Dec 1, 2017 Seems like most people don't know how to review an app and instead review customer service issues 😄. Here's an actual app review. Been using consistently for over a year now. Used for 70+ check-ins, TSA points, and boarding. App is reliable, updates changes in flight information quickly, sometimes even before the pilot has informed passengers. A recent update broke the "clear expired passes" feature which was useful as I am a frequent flyer that uses iOS's wallet feature a lot. Using the app for in-flight entertainment is quite atrocious. UI loops that bring you back to square one and very infrequent experiences without glitches. Most of the time it just plain doesn't work. Maybe it's the plane's servers, but c'mon...WestJet got it right, why can't American!? The most recent update killed compatibility with iOS 9. Yeah, I should update, I get it. But really, how hard is legacy support?more -

Oct 6, 2020 The app continues to be full of bugs and not provide accurate information. The latest: Last night after receiving notice that my flight had changed and I needed to confirm it, I received an error message when linking to the app stating "Error showing flight information" , and today when attempting to review options to change my flight the app showed "We didn't find a match" for changes to my selected flight, but a human at AA customer service confirmed the route has three options available.more

Least Useful Airline App. And Airline.
Feb 4, 2019 Not living in a city that is a major hub for one airline, I frequently switch between American, United, and Delta. After booking with my company’s travel department my flights on United and Delta automatically show up in their respective Apps, along with boarding passes showing my Pre-Check status. To get a boarding pass in the American App, you will have to enter your confirmation number in the app to view your reservation, and it won’t show Pre-Check status. My Pre-Check number is in my profile and shows in the app, but according to American, because we don’t book directly with American they are unable give me boarding pass in app showing that I’m Pre-Check. This requires a trip to the Kiosk where I have to check in and manually enter my Pre-Check number and get a printed boarding pass. Push notifications are so far behind you won’t get a notice your flight is boarding until you’ve already (hopefully) landed at your destination. The one bright side is easy access to terminal maps in the app. But this app and this airline are in desperate need of an update in user friendliness.more -
Oct 20, 2020 I tried to enroll and when I press submit it says a valid phone number is 10 digits. I put my right phone number which is 10 digits and it still won't accept it. I can't enroll unless it's fixedmore -
Becoming less useful esp on the Watch
Oct 8, 2019 I usually give an app 3 stars if it at least does the minimum across all platforms. This app does not execute it’s features at an acceptable level. Forgetting about the missing features (well documented in other reviews), the watch app is horrendous. It no longer has complications for Apple Watch (not Series 5 paired to to XS Max, anyway). The complication functioning correctly is incredibly important on travel days to keep current with changing gates and departure times. For as a long as I’ve been using the app (across multiple phones and watches now), the watch would usually display incorrect times after connecting in a different time zone. For example, when I go from Florida to someplace else and connect in DFW, the change in time zone wreaked havoc on the app. I would frequently be onboard my 2nd segment and the watch was telling me how long until my 1st segment had to land. That is just nuts... but that is if it would give me flight info at all. Approximately 25% of the time, nothing would update and / or I couldn’t even get my flight to come across from the phone to the watch. Seriously, AA?!more -
Terrible app
Jan 19, 2019 Terrible app, this isn’t very functional compared to the United app. I dropped United last year and I am a frequent flyer and now Platnium pro. The WiFi functionality in the air to stream just doesn’t work well in the app. How you have to switch back and forth multiple times going from ur WiFi settings to the app in order to play a video. U should simply be on the WiFi and then be able to select entertainment and be able to select the video all in the app. The upgrade list isn’t well done and isn’t able to be seen in real time except right before boarding. Interactive maps are terrible. Push notifications for boarding, or modifying push notifications to 15 min before boarding so you can leave the Admirals club and make it to your gate on time. Also it is a pain when ur boarding pass expires when in the air, a big problem when ur flight is delayed. I get better notifications from Kayak about my American Airlines delays and baggage claim then I get out of the American app. It is truly a disappointing app.more
What’s Groovy
App runs pretty well. My biggest frustration is that sometimes I have to go to the full web site for seat selection. This is normally happening after my travel agency issues my ticket and I think there is some kind of lag before I am allowed to make changes in the app.
I am normally insulted by the offers to upgrade to first class because they are not reasonable. It’s almost like a reminder that I am not wealthy and I am sure most people feel this way. Once it was like $1,500 for one way!
I do occasionally put in for an upgrade. It would be nice if the app told you when first class was checked-in full so you would not have to wait until the last minute to grab a drink from somewhere (especially since they are not serving drinks in coach). Maybe a stoplight system like they use for Jetnet that shows when you have no chance.

What’s Subpar
The app can't keep up with changing gates and changing flights. I recently took a AA flight and due to weather, I had to change flights. I was able to do so, but the app would not update to the new flights. I had to go to a AA kiosk and get a paper copy of my boarding pass. Furthermore, when my gate changed, the app did not keep up. I had to use a non-AA app to find my new gate.

I’m able to book revenue and award tickets, I’m able to select my seats, and when my upgrade processes I’m able to recheck my seat in the new cabin. I’m able to check-in and I find the app to be very useful in receiving flight updates. My company uses concur, and the moment my flight is reserved in concur it shows up in the app. I’m able to understand if my flight may be impacted based on the app-provided “inbound” flight, and I’m able to live-track my baggage in the event that I check bags. I’m not sure what people expect from an app, but in reading the reviews it seems that people are hoping that the app somehow will solve all of their travel nightmares, but I’m afraid those are classic weather, mechanical, and customer service issues. -
Made whole trip convenient!
This app really made my travel experience easy not just in terms of getting flight and boarding info, but also navigating unfamiliar airports quickly. I didn’t need to enter any info to have my reservation front and center, and it filtered out legs of my trip that I completed (though they’re still accessible) The app has a map of each airports on the reservation, with their terminals/gates, and marks where the gate is in the map. You can also get directions if you want to. I had very short layovers and needed to get quickly to my next gate, and this app made figuring out where and how I needed to get there effortless. In addition it shows nearby airport restaurants and other things by name on the map. Also, when browsing restaurants, it pre-filters them based on where you’re at. It even has their menus, which I appreciated b/c I eat GF and wanted to know ahead of time if it would be a waste of time to eat somewhere. The map loaded fast too, and didn’t chug when I scrolled/zoomed. The confirmation reminders helped me not forget to do it, and the boarding passes added to passbook in the proper order (small detail but other apps have messed this up or don’t add all boarding passes for a multi-leg trip). Bottom line - I always felt the most relevant info to me at the time was present, was easy to find, and never slowed me down. Best airline app experience I’ve had. Don’t change anything! -
Reliable information, very professional. No stress!
Unlike some others, I do find this app intuitive. Love being able to see inbound flight info, and updates for flight information is very timely. I feel like I have an inside track because in many cases, I have learned about gate changes and other info before formal announcements. Seat change requests are accurate, and I’ve never been let down. When traveling, we rely on having accurate information and having control, and this app helps me keep the stress level down because I never have to guess. Yes, sometimes the in-flight entertainment is glitchy, but I’m on a plane sharing a small network with many users so I’ve stuck to using data, only for work, and viewing downloaded movies or listening to downloaded music. There are too many other entertainment options out there these days for me to hold this against the app when that is not it’s main purpose. -
I would give it 5 stars, but when you check in with app, you still have to go to the kiosk. If you check in online and take care of the luggage, you should be ablevto go straight to the counter.

3hr flight, entertainment option won't load, using android phone. Passenger next to me could also not get entertainment link to load. Others on plane were viewing ok. Not sure if droid issue.

I love this app! By far the best airline app!
I didn’t realize how much I love the American Airlines app until traveling on a couple different airlines recently and I really came to appreciate it. I get notified immediately through push notifications when there are any delays, flight changes, etc. and it also updates all the information on the boarding pass in my Apple wallet. I expected this from another airline and didn’t receive it - got all the way to that gate and then customer service before finding out a flight was cancelled, which never would’ve happened on American! Everything, including same day flight changes is a breeze to do in the app, and I also have been able to reschedule flights easily: I got notified that my flight delay would cause me to miss my connection and was offered other flight times that I could book immediately. Huge fan of the app and of American!! -
Great App, Continuous Development
I just opened my app in order to check in for my flight tomorrow from BOS to ORD. Upon refresh, I received a notice that they were looking for volunteers to take a different flight and wanted to know the minimum I would accept to switch. It said my choice had been noted and if needed I would be called to the desk tomorrow! Wow! That’s using technology to prevent fires instead of always fighting them. There is bad weather across the country and they are really working to prevent as much pain as possible at the airport tomorrow. I have one suggesting and this app will be simply the best in breed. For upgrades, please put the number of seats available along with the number of people checked in. That way you have a bit more of an idea if an upgrade is even possible. Currently, you can see your name of the list but not how many seats are available to begin with. Delta does this and I love it! -
I love how the app makes it possible to have my boarding pass on my phone but it frequently has errors and does not update quick enough at times.

Very convenient, smooth, fast, and clearly visible.

Love the app. Easy to get boarding passes. Notifications are accurate and up to date

Great app on day of travel
Not sure what the poor reviews are about... certainly more about service issues than the app itself. As a weekly AA flyer, I find the app to be very helpful and intuitive. I don’t need to dig all over like the United app. Everything is on the home screen and it’s dynamic to what I most need at that time. Favorite features are the ability to order food from restaurants at DFW and a few other airports - need more! - and see the terminal maps to plan out a quick connect. Rebooking is great when it works, many times though the rebook option doesn’t show up in app timely for me. I get the text message about a cancellation or delay and race to the app and the rebooking shows sometimes but not others. Otherwise very positive experiences with the app! -
I love how the app tells me what I need to know when I need to know it..especially which baggage claim area to go to.

We are American!
It’s always great with American airlines because they listen. I have always taken the time to communicate with American Airlines and noticed that it does work overtime. I appreciate the constant upgrades that American brings to make it better and better each time. It’s a parent did American wants to be number one and I realize they’re not perfect, they are working hard to make it the best American Airlines possible. I appreciate this so good and hopefully some integrated parts will make this a better experience. Knowing how much time it takes to develop and tweak apps and sites, I appreciate the time invested to continually give us a great experience as we fly across this country with American Airlines. Thank you once again for serving us with excellence.

Hmmm..
I don’t understand so many of these reviews complaining about so many things that I’ve 100% been able to do on this app. I can load all the boarding passes for connections on my trips (you do have to add each individual one to your wallet, but that’s not hard). The app is fairly up to date with my flight info usually. I can check in to my flights through it. I never have to look up my trips with record locators (I do always book my flights through the app though, so maybe that’s why). I love that it tracks my checked luggage, fairly accurately too. I can’t speak to the in flight entertainment, I never bother to use it. If the plane doesn’t have in seat screens, I just use my Kindle or Surface Pro to watch downloaded Netflix or Prime Video stuff. I travel frequently, almost always on AA, and it has made traveling easier for me. -
Good and getting better
I’ve recently switched to flying primarily American based on the routes I fly most. Especially after reaching Gold status, when more things opened up in the app, the app experience has continued to improve. I love that I can now book my main cabin flight using my corporate card and then pay to upgrade to first using my personal card. The only issue that I run into consistently is that when I pay to upgrade my flight, I always have to re-enter my card details. The UI suggests that I should be able to use a card on file, but none of my payment methods are listed. Fixing this would make upgrading a snap!

Reliable app, bad video integration
Seems like most people don't know how to review an app and instead review customer service issues 😄. Here's an actual app review. Been using consistently for over a year now. Used for 70+ check-ins, TSA points, and boarding. App is reliable, updates changes in flight information quickly, sometimes even before the pilot has informed passengers. A recent update broke the "clear expired passes" feature which was useful as I am a frequent flyer that uses iOS's wallet feature a lot. Using the app for in-flight entertainment is quite atrocious. UI loops that bring you back to square one and very infrequent experiences without glitches. Most of the time it just plain doesn't work. Maybe it's the plane's servers, but c'mon...WestJet got it right, why can't American!? The most recent update killed compatibility with iOS 9. Yeah, I should update, I get it. But really, how hard is legacy support? -
Never consistently logged on. At times won't acknowledge your log in... responds with error messages.

I used to love using this app. It was reliable with all the features I needed. However as of late I can no longer pull up my current boarding pass at the airport. I can see all kinds of prior BP's but not the one I would need at that time. This causes a scurry to get to a kiosk and print my pass. If this was corrected I would be back to giving 5 stars.
-
I can not even get myself signed in. It stops on my phone number telling me I must have 10 digits and I do and it will not recognize it. I have done this twice. I hope someone reads this and can help me or the app.

I updated the app today and it is no longer usable. Now it keeps stopping and closes itself shortly after it opens. I've force stopped the app, cleared its cache, restarted my phone... nothing has helped this problem.

Very Little Versatility
I would bet that I am in the top 1% of time spent using the app as I fly often. I have many ideas for how it can be improved, but the first would be to make it to where cash and miles redemption values are pulled, preferably shown simultaneously, at the same time like in Delta’s app. Second, multi-city search should be an absolute no-brainer. Third, adding a filter to flight results for departure time (slider), arrival time (slider), flight duration (slider), cost (slider), class (I hate that Basic Economy shows up as it makes Sorting on Price cloudy just like on the website), and connecting city (check boxes). Fourth, being able to add more the one origin airport into a search would be very convenient. Fifth, GoGo Entertainment App is a nuisance - buying WiFi and accessing entertainment during flight should all happen in-app (I’m sure this is the most difficult as info would pull from many sources.) Sixth, the boarding passes added to Apple Wallet should disappear on their own after a flight has occurred. All of the above should be the standard for an airline’s app, excluding the WiFi and Entertainment all in one place. -
Amazing how bad this app still is
I use the app every week as i travel that much. Its amazing to me that after being at this for so many years, AA STILL doesn't understand what travelers need. there are many annoying things that i wish they would solve already. 1). I live in PR, the area to store my CC information does not accept PR as a state or territory for my address. PR has been part of the US for 100 years. I’ve reported it several times but they either ignore it or cant figure it out 2- the app used to have multi-city functionality, it was taken away, so, we are going backwards? 3- i often get an “error 504” when paying for tickets, its annoying as it forces one to have to start again 4- if one is traveling outside the US, it defaults to the local language, the Language chOice option is not permanent, it should allow language preference regardless if where you are. 5- luggage tags should be added to the electronic boarding pass. 6- there should be a “order of presence for CCs, meaning which ones to use first, second, etc. The list of suggestions can go on and go, but first, fix the problems. -
The app continues to be full of bugs and not provide accurate information. The latest: Last night after receiving notice that my flight had changed and I needed to confirm it, I received an error message when linking to the app stating "Error showing flight information" , and today when attempting to review options to change my flight the app showed "We didn't find a match" for changes to my selected flight, but a human at AA customer service confirmed the route has three options available.

Least Useful Airline App. And Airline.
Not living in a city that is a major hub for one airline, I frequently switch between American, United, and Delta. After booking with my company’s travel department my flights on United and Delta automatically show up in their respective Apps, along with boarding passes showing my Pre-Check status. To get a boarding pass in the American App, you will have to enter your confirmation number in the app to view your reservation, and it won’t show Pre-Check status. My Pre-Check number is in my profile and shows in the app, but according to American, because we don’t book directly with American they are unable give me boarding pass in app showing that I’m Pre-Check. This requires a trip to the Kiosk where I have to check in and manually enter my Pre-Check number and get a printed boarding pass. Push notifications are so far behind you won’t get a notice your flight is boarding until you’ve already (hopefully) landed at your destination. The one bright side is easy access to terminal maps in the app. But this app and this airline are in desperate need of an update in user friendliness. -
I tried to enroll and when I press submit it says a valid phone number is 10 digits. I put my right phone number which is 10 digits and it still won't accept it. I can't enroll unless it's fixed

Becoming less useful esp on the Watch
I usually give an app 3 stars if it at least does the minimum across all platforms. This app does not execute it’s features at an acceptable level. Forgetting about the missing features (well documented in other reviews), the watch app is horrendous. It no longer has complications for Apple Watch (not Series 5 paired to to XS Max, anyway). The complication functioning correctly is incredibly important on travel days to keep current with changing gates and departure times. For as a long as I’ve been using the app (across multiple phones and watches now), the watch would usually display incorrect times after connecting in a different time zone. For example, when I go from Florida to someplace else and connect in DFW, the change in time zone wreaked havoc on the app. I would frequently be onboard my 2nd segment and the watch was telling me how long until my 1st segment had to land. That is just nuts... but that is if it would give me flight info at all. Approximately 25% of the time, nothing would update and / or I couldn’t even get my flight to come across from the phone to the watch. Seriously, AA?!

App is not updating when flights change. This has been happening on off for months. What is the solution???

Not too good
The app makes it easy to view your reservations, but when you try to make changes like add seats or bags, it rarely works correctly. I tried to add checked bags to our first flight and was charged the $60 though it did not work. I later tried to reserve 2 seats for a flight through the app and I was charged the $38 on 2 different debit cards that I tried without it working. I had to call American Airlines both times and was told I need to wait for the charges to “drop off,” but I had to pay again in both instances to have the checked bags and reserved seats. Would have been nice to use the money that had already been taken out of my account to make the reservations but when you call AA, they claim that they do not even see charges made. All in all, very frustrating when you cannot use the money you are supposed to still have in your account until the charge “drops off.” Will not be using the app to make changes like these ever again. -
Lacks important features
Frequent flyers need specific features which are just lacking in this app. It needs the ability to see ALL open seats on the flight you are on. It only shows the ones in your class. You can not tell how many seats are available for an upgrade which is something you really want to know. You have to act like you are booking a new trip on the flight you are booked on to see available first class seats. The upgrade list is not available to view until inside the 24-hour mark. Why? Other airline apps show this all along. The app will only show Admirals Club locations at airports OTHER than the one you are at if you have location tracking turned on. It will never show locations at the airport you are in. That is the only airport you care about at that moment. The only way to see the current airline locations is to turn off GPS in the app. Just bad programming. The ability to see alternate flights should be an easy thing. If your flight is delayed or cancelled I’d like to quickly and easily see options without acting like I’m booking a whole new flight which shows all flights for the day including ones that are already gone earlier in the day. There needs to be some thought and consideration for the basic needs of their frequent flyers on this app.

Terrible app
Terrible app, this isn’t very functional compared to the United app. I dropped United last year and I am a frequent flyer and now Platnium pro. The WiFi functionality in the air to stream just doesn’t work well in the app. How you have to switch back and forth multiple times going from ur WiFi settings to the app in order to play a video. U should simply be on the WiFi and then be able to select entertainment and be able to select the video all in the app. The upgrade list isn’t well done and isn’t able to be seen in real time except right before boarding. Interactive maps are terrible. Push notifications for boarding, or modifying push notifications to 15 min before boarding so you can leave the Admirals club and make it to your gate on time. Also it is a pain when ur boarding pass expires when in the air, a big problem when ur flight is delayed. I get better notifications from Kayak about my American Airlines delays and baggage claim then I get out of the American app. It is truly a disappointing app. -
They purposely don't seat you together so you're forced to.upgrade. Seat assignments change everytime i check our boarding passes. Baggage fees are ridiculous. Everytime i try to upgrade my seat or purchase baggage, the app crashes despite me using the note 20 ultra. Planes are old and seats are extremely uncomfortable. All together a bad experience. Will not be flying american ever again. A giant ripoff

App has serious limitations much like American Airlines
The app did not allow me to download multiple boarding passes. I was able to download mine but not my 9 and 6 year old daughters’ passes. I went to my laptop just to see if I could get them. I had to enter unique emails for each traveler in order to receive the boarding passes electronically. Thank goodness my daughters have email accounts I thought sarcastically. The point here is why go through the hassle?! Just get the passes printed at check-in. The other issue is the constant searching for my trip with the record locator. If I have a profile in the app and online, why doesn’t the app or the full website version keep a record of my trips associated to my profile? Why do I constantly have to input my record locator to view my upcoming trip? Much like American Airlines, this process was inefficient. The airline lost my consistent business years ago. I took this trip as the low cost option against my better judgement. I guess one gets what one pays for. -
worst airline app ever!!! I have changed my password about 12 times, system validates and then upon login...system says login failed

When I opened it in my tablet, with Android 7.0, got a message saying that the app is not compatible with my device, even if in the same page it is asserted that it works for versions of Android 4.4 and above. No instructions on how to fix the problem. The fact that the app has to devote an entire page to explain in which devices and browsers works or doesn't tells me that AA is not putting a lot of effort in developing an user-friendly app. I won't count on it for my in-flight entertainment.
