Tools of the day go to the mobile passport people who decided to make it a pay service.

i believe you only pay if you want it to save your passport data.

you can still use it for free.

Or if you don't upgrade the app (on Android you can download the old version).

Agree about Mobile Passport, but even worse were the EWR jackasses who put foreign citizens on the Mobile Passport line causing us to wait 45 minutes.

I nominate myself for bumping 12+ year old threads just to be a PITA forum troll.

Do you also say "Go home leg, nothing will break on the plane and boarding will be smooth"


But people can not be upset about this. The developer of Mobile Passport is not funded by the government or by airlines. This is all on their dime, no ads or targeting crap on the app. How long would any of us do something for free before needing to generate revenue?

So that company has just been operating at a 100% loss out of the goodness of their heart?
