Ratings and reviews

This UTS App is a Nightmare for Travellers in a Rush! This app is the absolute WORST for anyone who relies on public transport. It constantly fails me when I need it most - in a hurry! * Unreliable Ticketing: Every single time I try to book a ticket on the go, the transaction goes through, but the ticket itself NEVER appears! This leaves me stranded and frustrated, scrambling for alternatives. * Slow and Buggy: Especially when I'm pressed for time, the app is sluggish and buggy.😡😡😡

The app is great overall, but there are a few areas for improvement. Occasionally, the GPS distance from the station is inaccurate, fluctuating between 30 to 50 meters. Booking tickets becomes challenging when the train arrives at the station, and new tickets are being booked for different destinations, often due to low GPS sensitivity. These issues hinder a smooth user experience and could be addressed for better functionality and convenience.

The app became quite reliable and stayed so for a long time. However, since almost a month it's having issues in finding out nearby stations. Also, a message involving the mock locations is popping up way too frequently. I didn't change my device and it was working all good until as recently as a month ago.
