My favorite app as a frequent flyer
The app is very accessible and works very well on my device. I has just re-downloaded it because it is such an amazing app. The AI has issues but besides that it is a pretty amazing app when I’m not sure something can get through the TSA I will check the app. I have to fly to school ever week so this gets handy when my teachers or AIDS give me something that I need to take home that I’m not sure will be allowed. I go and open my app this app and it will tell me sorry about the error anyhow very great app and easy to use with voiceover.
Doesn’t account for Ontario International Airport in California
For Ontario international in California 15-30 minutes actually means 60+ minutes
Bad App
Worthless. It does not tell you realtime waits
Expiration Date?!?!????
It used to show when my TSA precheck will expire but why does it no longer show in the app. Make it make sense. On the next update, please return to previous format.
Needs: Report Airport Security concern
Excellent app, easy to use with useful airport info. Just needs a button to “Report a Security Concern” quickly and discreetly like DEN, DFW and SEA have in their See Say Airport apps. Let’s all keep travel safe.

Not even close
Today said New Orleans wait was 15 minutes but was over 3 hours. There needs to be a way to report updates from passengers on the ground.
CLEAR CLEAR CLEAR
Maybe it’s time TSA also change policy for people too. People should wear clear clothes for fast security checks. How much money do people have to waste on luggage before they can fly. Because only TSA agents are GOD rest all people are nothing else but hardcore criminals.
App Review
I am so happy to have access to this information in an easy to use form. When I am unable to find what I need, I just message TSA and they reply. You need to leave adequate time for a reply when using the messenger app.
Not live reports
Maybe this used to work but it does not reflect accurate live times if you compare to airport websites which report actual live times. This is useless and just gives estimates based on history. And can be amazingly inaccurate
Wait time info is false
I tried this when going through AVL recently. Happy to see that wait times on the app showed under 5 minutes for pre check and scheduled accordingly. Reality was 105 minutes. Good news is that was reassuring frequently refresh to show under 5 minutes. Worthless.
Wait time accuracy is critical for this app
Need to focus on improving accuracy even if it is done for just 10 airports before making it available to all US airports. Same tech that is used for Google maps traffic can be used because nearly 100% people are carrying cell phones that are tracking locations / wait times
良いかもね
英語だけだからそこが難点。 完成度はほぼ100パー。
Horrible!
Wish I could rate this a zero. First of all, it says the wait times at all JFK terminals is the same. How can all 4 terminals have the same wait time! And the max wait time it displays is “greater than 60 minutes.” This could be 61 minutes or it could be 200 minutes…. No way to tell.
KTN number incorrect on app
Can’t correct on app
Not Real Time Info
The app is a great idea. I figured I can see how good or bad the wait at the security lines is. However, after using it I determined it is just giving you the collective average wait time for that time on that day - not what is actually happening. The average wait time for 3:00 on a Monday based on months or years of data. It’s still useful but not nearly as much as I hoped.
Great tool
It's a helpful tool for travelers .
WRONG
Said wait time was 60 minutes, there was no wait, it took longer to work thru the back and forth turns to get to security.
Way off
Was quoted less than a 15 minute wait for O’Hare security on 6/8 midday. Actual wait was 50 minutes
I’m not a tester, but it seems there are some bugs in the app
Over all, I would recommend the app. Currently there are some bugs that do need addressed. Example: if you go to the tab for ask TSA on the iPad, if you click on the tsa website. The app crashes. On a cellphone it goes to the website. That is just one example. To me not being able to access what you need could be a problem. That is why I give 3 stars.
Great app
This app is truly great. It has really good info on what you can and cannot bring, relevant and good advice and provides info on waiting times at airport. Brilliant!
Actually worthless
Has no relationship to reality. Don’t bother downloading as you can’t trust it.
TSA Digital ID?
SO they advertise this TSA Digital ID in airports. They say go to this app and set it up. Unfortunately you cannot. It is the typical disorganized federal government double talk speaking to themselves with all kinds of silly product names nobody else knows or understands as qualifiers for features. Long story short, TSA Digital IDs, don’t bother.
Good app, but...
Airports aren't updated that often. Loaded up this morning and Sea-Tac still showed the last update from last night. Best to phone or check the Internet on wait times. Don't rely on this app for accuracy.
Excelente
Si viajas mucho, tienes un viaje pronto o simplemente por curiosidad, esta aplicación es súper útil.
False times
App constantly states 0-15min wait times all day at DIA. My daughter nearly missed flight because times were actually 45min at 5am
Gives general wait times, not specific to your terminal
The only reason you would download this app probably is to check security checkpoint wait times. And that’s where this falls the most short. It only gives an average wait time across the entire airport. At the minimum it should give times per terminal. In places like DFW where each Terminal has multiple security checkpoints, even more specific information is needed. The funny thing is, some airport websites are able to give this information, so the data is available. Just not in this app.
Great, well thought out application.
Very informative, cuts out a lot of guesswork. Great for frequent fliers, or even first time visitors to the States - plus it's free! No reason not to download this. Highly recommended.
It lied
It said the wait at security was 15 - 30 minutes. It was over an hour.
Not accurate at all.
It does not update at all.
It’s not correct
The TSA‘s website is wrong if you go to your local airport website you’ll get the right time and there’s not our long weights at the max. They’re like 12 minute weights.
inaccurate wait times
was flying out of atlanta and the wait times are not accurate. I would not rely on this app for wait times! from my experience it seems that the individual airport website may have more real time information. i almost missed my flight, since the wait was around an hour, and showed 15-30 min on the app!
Useless
Not sure whether this app is poorly designed or I am just stupid. DFW web site shows wait times at each checkpoint in each terminal. This app just reports overall time range for whole airport. How is that useful?
No Precheck Operating Hours?
I was hoping this app would tell me what time TSA precheck closes, but no such luck
