App is garbage ever since the Atmos update / Hawaii merger. Just signs you out all the time or you can't log in.
★★★★ Wayne Yokogawa 6/28/2026 v8.11.0
cannot obtain today's arrival time. cannot input flight number
★★★★ Deepak Venkateswaran 6/27/2026 v8.11.0
Alaska/Hawaiian is well in its way to joining Delta and United to the bottom and their app certainly shows just that.
★★★★ Lilly Danaher 6/25/2026
my username and password no longer works after the update, it's asking me to call a number that has a hold time of over an hour...
★★★★ Kevin Heaphy 6/24/2026 v8.10.0

★★★★ J Michael Bland 6/24/2026 v8.11.0

★★★★ Ellis Tarn 6/22/2026 v8.10.0
awful app
★★★★ Steven Schuetz 6/21/2026 v8.10.0

★★★★ Jesse G 6/20/2026 v8.10.0
don't fly this airline
★★★★ Alan Seeling 6/18/2026 v8.9.0
I "up graded" to premium. I gave up my window seat. Advertising indicated more entertainment, drinks and more leg room. It turned out my row had NO windows seat, and no drinks or more noticeable leg room. A $70 scam.
★★★★ Thai V. 6/18/2026 v8.10.0
i hate this app! it logs me out every time so i have to put in my account info everytime i want to access my trip info. what is the actual point of it if it just acts like the website??
★★★★ Christopher Davis 6/17/2026 v8.10.0
worthless, can't sign in. how do you break a fancy web browser app and not have it fixed after 3 months?
★★★★ Yogi Kalkunte 6/16/2026 v8.9.0
Does not work most of the time re check in or manage trip or adding bags or seat changes
★★★★ Christina Alford (Bug) 6/14/2026 v8.9.0
useless flight data
★★★★ Malcolm Veach 6/14/2026 v7.6.9
can't get past the login screen, it's an endless loop of verifying your human than taking you back to the login screen. absolutely useless
★★★★ IBLEED OIL 6/13/2026 v8.9.0
App is crashing the night before my flight is anyone else having this issue , PLEASE FIX THIS!!
★★★★ Tom Zhang 6/12/2026 v8.9.0
app is completely broken, cannot open without signing in, and trying to do so will get stuck in a loop
★★★★ Joseph Leprince 6/12/2026 v7.6.9
Useless. Nothing works, can't log in, all it is is a gateway to a browser, and even the website is trash. after check in, you try to view boarding passses and it keeps requiring check in, which is already done. It's all hot garbage...
★★★★ J V 6/12/2026 v8.9.0
Won't let me add required travel documentation to check in for my international trip.
★★★★ Robert Uehara 6/11/2026 v8.9.0
I am unable to login. While I can type in my login credentials, captcha is unresponsive. I wish they'd stop using captcha and move on to security keys or authentication apps. update: found out that this app's captcha has issues with foldable phones. I was able to get through the captcha by connecting my phone to a TV.
★★★★ Kirsten Ramos 6/11/2026 v8.7.0
difficult and slow
★★★★ Sheryll 6/10/2026 v8.9.0
cumbersome. never works as it should
★★★★ Tas Singh 6/10/2026 v8.9.0
This app is the worst. You have to contact support for receipts because the app and website don't work. I tried to leave bad feedback, but you can't because it asks for a confirmation code that doesn't work, so I can't even leave feedback.
★★★★ Federico Galvan 6/10/2026 v8.9.0
hard to log in
★★★★ Jodie Banks 6/10/2026 v8.9.0
the app became very hard to use after the merger. not clear where anything is, just takes you to a web browser for sign-in.
★★★★★ Ku Si 6/27/2026 v8.11.0
It's 2026, make receipts available immediately. It shouldn't take 48 hours and a prayer that the app decideds to work.
★★★★★ Adam Ross 6/23/2026 v8.10.0
Marketing notifications disabled in settings, but the app still sends multiple ads telling me to preorder my meal (3 times so far for a single flight). Can't disable ads without disabling all notifications at the system level.
★★★★★ Zara 6/22/2026 v8.10.0
my mom's phone couldn't login. she had to use my phone high key LAME
★★★★★ Greg Findlay 6/19/2026 v8.10.0
Not ready for flights to Europe yet
★★★★★ David Benedict 6/14/2026 v8.9.0
impossible to pre-order food. app keeps asking for my payment method and won't accept and save my input.
★★★★★ John Doyle 6/12/2026 v8.9.0
The app took money for a checked bag and then it won't show as paid for.
★★★★★ Parker Pochant 6/10/2026 v8.9.0
Glitchy. Was not able to check in, kept getting "Something went wrong."Unable to chsnge flights when one was canceled because "Something went wrong." App was almost unusable.
★★★★★ Malo Sega 6/9/2026 v8.9.0
frustrating
