APP OF THE DAY: Flybuys

Flybuys
Cost: Free | Developer:Shine Technologies | Platform:iOS | Version 1.3| 1.2MB | 4.0+

Many of us have owned a Flybuys card, but never taken advantage of the rewards that come with it because it was inconvenient to keep track of. The Flybuys app eliminates this by offering a simple user interface that keeps users up to date with points and the entire scheme.

When launched for the first time, the app asks users a few questions to set up their account and logs them in.

Following this process, users are taken to the home screen which displays their points at the bottom and offers four menus above: rewards, bonus, stores, and messages.

The rewards tab is perhaps most useful as it allows users to browse a range of products that can be claimed, as well as stating how many points are required, and how long until the target is reached.

The store locator also comes in handy, as it offers a map of nearby stores which participate in the Flybuys scheme so you can choose where to spend your money.

The app comes at a time where Flybuys has had its own overhaul with the launch of its new website with which this version of the app has been made available.

Pros: Free, lets you take control of your account, rewards wishlist

Cons: Calculating the huge number of points you need to claim a prize can become depressing.

Verdict: Makes Flybuys convenient and easy to keep track of.
