OMG! What a miserable Metro app to represent one of the largest cities in the world. I want to use profanity to describe how bad it is to create an account that for whatever reason after creating the account the login and password is not accepted. I tried multiple times and it’s impossible to login. The app doesn’t have a proper recovery password and doesn’t accept the email. I don’t like writing negative reviews but this takes the cake - no NAILED IT WITH THIS APP. I’m so disgusted it’s ruining the vibe to want to use the new D-Line for the first time. Thanks TAP.

It won’t let me create an account.

My son came in town and used TAP LA to get from the airport to the east side of LA. He said it was easy to use it in his phone wallet and the trip finder worked perfectly. I have been using it in my Apple Watch since I got in town in April and I haven’t had any issues.
