Ratings and reviews

TL;DR Bugggy and slow --- Takes forever to get my current location, sometimes fails. Unable to display platforms on a lot of connections. Sliding departures view is missing. Always loading the map in the background takes resources and slows the app down when the connection is not great (go figure in rural germany). Searching for a station takes too long to find the correct station. Prematurely starts searching for connections when you haven't finished entering details. Payment takes forever

I can't access the network plans section: the App keeps telling me that the talkback mode is activated (what it definitely is not). Rest of the App is working okayish. Sometimes it's loading a bit too long and shows kind of slow response.

It was working just fine a few month's ago- and now i can't even purchase my tickets [ i use paypal]. Plus, it tells me to select a town, but when i tap it, nothing happens. Edit: I managed to buy a ticket I hope the rest gets fixed about the location and all. Thanks for the help
