This app is a joke! It is a half-baked attempt to do an “even we have an app” marketing juggle. The app doesn’t contain search function and an IDIOCY with no Fandango account login and storing Credit Cards ON THE PHONE (?!) just start it all off. Dare I mention that, even after you store your Credit Card on the phone (IF you are a moron) – the app doesn’t even has a PIN, much less a PASSWORD to protect against unauthorized use?! Anyone with 5 minutes to spare and casual access to your phone (kids, friends, coworkers) can buy you a week’s worth of Phantom Of The Opera (that alone would kill me). I had it on my phone for a whole of 2 minutes and it was OFF and GONE!
The Fandango app does not load correctly. No icon appears on my phone. I have reset the phone and tried to install numberous times.
