It works... straightforward and easy to book flights or change flights! But it could be better with notifications about gate changes, flight changes, delays, and when exactly they begin boarding. When purchasing a ticket, they should make it more "automatic" to find our love vouchers or flight credits. Should not have to navigate to my account to find them... when I'm logged into the app, there should be a drop down with all my love vouchers! Please fix this!

THE Best!!! Of all the apps ever used this one is the best. I literally just booked a flight for my partner in less than a minute and it takes even less time to book mine because my info auto populates. I'm so grateful for Southwest keeping me connected with my family. I've flown all the other major airlines. Southwest is the way to go. Their app makes my travels seamless. Flight status, hands free checking in, boarding passes and more all in this beautiful app. Thank you Southwest!

It is frustrating to manage your reservation in this app. Once you check in to your flight, your information should be easily accessible on the app home screen like with other airlines' apps. Instead I have to find it through manage reservations, where the app seems to have to look it up and slowly load an update on the flight status each time I want to check it. Very obnoxious and not easy to use
