Ratings and reviews

This is very usefull application. The application reduces our time, booking tickets through the UTS Application is very easy. No need to stand in long queue at station. Suggestions: Pls enable one option to book next further station ticket from season ticket destination. If want to travel few times in a season ticket month by travel on the same train.

The app can be reworked to be more user friendly. The most irritating feature is the GPS detects rights towards the end of booking. Can it now be a feature right at the beginning. Features like repeat payment selection mode are just time wasters. With such a large user group, the makers of the app.need to tale some serious view of the user experience.

My first thought is to give 5 stars. But it has a major drawback, which is the tickets cannot be booked within a certain range. If we have to book means, we have to search for the QR in the station, which is taking a lot of time. I will consider to give 5,if they made this app to book in station without any QR or other things.
