User Reviews

Overall, users like the improved routing and the convenience of on-the-go ticketing, including multi-person purchases and the Favorites feature. However, recurring problems include payment failures and incomplete purchases, login and activation errors, app crashes, and timetable inaccuracies. Ticket verification can fail in poor signal, and some features still require work to ensure reliability. The app has clear value, but reliability and accurate scheduling remain the top issues to fix.

Pros

Routing is detailed and easy for multi-person ticket purchases.
On-the-go ticketing saves time and avoids lines at ticket booths.
The app UX has improved relative to earlier versions.
The Favorites feature helps plan trips quickly.
Once a payment method is saved, purchases can be completed with few taps.

Cons

Frequent payment failures and incomplete purchases; in-app payments often fail to complete.
Account/login problems and random technical errors; activation emails sometimes don't arrive.
App reliability issues: crashes, freezes, or not opening after updates.
Timetable/information inaccuracies: trains times wrong, not all stops shown, or hard to interpret routes.
Ticket verification can fail in areas with poor signal; tickets shown on phone or printed copies are often rejected.

Recent reviews

Worst UI of any transit app I have ever used.

Not all users of the app have perfect vision. Some of us for accessibility reasons increase the font size. This app doesn’t resize text boxes or input boxes. If your text is large enough everything will be a jumbled mess
