Ratings and reviews

It's just not as user friendly as it should be. Feels clunky to use, and not as smooth as the older version. Screens seem to be used to take up branding or obvious information, rather than providing details on the job you're trying to do, such as quickly buying a ticket. Overall - just very poor UI, as if been designed by people that don't use buses.

It would be really nice if you made the application show the QR code of a ticket straight away after running the app. Now you have to press several buttons before you can show the ticket to the driver, sometimes it rains and tehere is no shelter and you cannot do it outside the bus, before the bus comes, sometimes you run to catch the bus, and it's not so easy to run the app when you get into a bus

Recently updated and the map is in dark mode (nothing else is) and it's impossible to see on a sunny day even at full brightness. Constantly begs for my location with two pop ups every time I open it, I know how to zoom in on a map. Would be much easier to just bookmark select stops and see upcoming busses from there. That's all I need it for. When clicking a stop on the map it will often show that stop for a millisecond before zooming to a completely different stop three roads down. Horrendous.
