Android Pay is great when it works but it fails too often, about one week every 3 month at my local supermarket. Last error since a few days "you can use only one card" on the terminal ! I understand that not all bugs may originate from Google but you should help improve the ecosystem. Pay should be reliable or it's a toy. Edit: Thanks for the link on the FAQs. The solution there is "Try again". I tried 2/3 times in a row without any success on 2 consecutive days. It used to works great. That's one sale point (2 different card readers).

Saw a promotion at Olive Garden to get a $5 discount by downloading and using android pay. Did all the steps only for it to give me an error message every time. Numerous waiters and managers stopped by to try and help to no avail. Ended up using Samsung Pay with no issues. Disappointed since I always root for Android vs iPhone.

Needs a way to add nickname at top of cards, or actual card image. I have three debit cards from the same bank, so all 3 images are the same in the app. Very confusing. I have 3 Cap One cards, but at least those images all look like their different card front. Would also be nice to be able to remove some from the home screen, but still have them verified in the app for occasional use. And would also be nice to rearrange the ones showing on the home screen, in addition to having one marked as the default card.

Hey I just bought a pixel 2 but why this app keeps disabled itself? Every time I have to enable it manually from the play stores. Is it a bug or something wrong with my phone?Is it because I am using a China Unicom Sim roaming in Australia?
kirsten galliher
So much faster at check out. Our chip readers are very slow. This was great. It was also nice that I just had to unlock my phone to use it. You don't have to open the app to use. Very convenient! I'll be using it wherever it's available.

I have samsung s8 and not able to use Android pay. The app say you can not (not able to add card) use this app on rooted device and my device is not rooted. I took it to Samsung store and they don't know what to do. I have spoken with google customer service and they said they can't do anything.

Ok, but not great. App has required me to re-authorize my cards 4 or 5 times now. Most of the time I didn't know this until I went to make a payment, so I ended up having to pull out my card anyway. So now I just don't even bother to try anymore.

It "USED to be" a Great app! I have a Droid Turbo 2 running latest version and it "USED to" work great a couple updates ago. Now, no matter how I toggle the settings, clear cache, default, restart, etc. It always wants me to unlock twice! Unlock phone, scan, error, pops up an in-app lock, unlock AGAIN and then it works. Please fix!

Rating four stars because, well... I used Android Pay the other day, and the transaction went fine, but.. it didn't give me my Justice League stamp :(.. I was going to go see the Justice League movie tonight, but, maybe now I shouldn't, because it'll only remind me of the disappointment.. I just don't know if I can ever fully trust Google again... ):
Full Review
Graham Johnson December 16, 2017
Usually works fine for payment as long as you make sure your screen stays on long enough. Every now and then it just fails for no reason and this means you can't depend on it. Recently it wiped the installed cards and since then the Justice League promotion has stopped working. Loyalty cards bit doesn't really inspire confidence as it often doesn't get the name of the programme correct, it wants to scan bar codes on cards that don't have them, or it uses a different bar code format to the card.
Full Review
Kevin Chapple December 16, 2017
Great app. Can we not have an OPTION to be able to 'Make payment with phone locked and sleeping'? So, instead of waking, and unlocking the phone, it may be used to make a transaction with the phone locked and sleeping. Saves a little bit of fumbling around at checkout....

On a T-Mobile unrooted Nexus 6 and I am also getting the "Something went wrong, Not found" error when trying to add my Amex back into the app . Used to work just fine and started receiving errors when trying to use it. I removed my card to try and re-add it, now it just keeps throwing the error. I can add loyalty cards just fine. Would love to use it if I could.

Can not get this working anymore. Got an email saying if I used android pay I would receive £10 Google play credit however for some reason after my last update it now thinks my phone is rooted. So guess I will be missing out on the £10 credit. Going to use Samsung pay

I have a Samsung S4 running android 5.0.1. I have turned NFC on, unlocked my screen and nothing happens when I tap or hold the phone to the store reader. I have added my HSBC card and have no other issues with my phone. Disappointed...(and embarassed when I couldnt pay at my local pizza hut!). Good thing I had my card handy but then again...whats the point in installing this?

Lisa Frederick Crawford December 20, 2017
Used for 1st time today. Worked seamlessly in about 1.5 seconds on Samsung S8+. But after reading over 100 of the reviews, I can tell Google isn't reading the reviews they respond to by what they say in the response. That is really sad.

Steven Zulim December 20, 2017
Would be good if it wasn't for annoying promotions like the Justice League one. At least make this ad stop showing up after the first time I decline? Showing promotions instead of a confirmation page takes the app from good to bad.

Kathy Hay December 15, 2017
I like the virtual cc#, the receipts are nice. What I don't like is having trouble using cards other than my default. WHAT I HATE is being required to password protect at the top level and not at the application. There are still not enough vendors who use this technology to make it worth the inconvenience of having a password protect at the top screen. I probably will delete the application until things change. Update: Oktober 31. Deleted the application. Will wait until I can have the samsung app. Update Dec 2017. I'm now using a pixel 2 so I have no choice but to use Android pay. The app is very straightforward and I have no problem with that the problem is it's not accepted everywhere I had a lot easier time using my Samsung pay but I find that place is either they say they use Android pay and it doesn't work or they don't accept Android pay. These are large chains in large metropolitan areas so I find it remarkable that they're limited to Samsung pay. it would be really nice if Google would put out a list of vendors that accept Android pay or don't so that you don't get to the register and find that your app isn't accepted or it just isn't working.

Works great!! Update: unfortunately Android Pay joined Google's infamous list of spammy apps. Your credit card doesn't spam you. Stick with it and avoid getting ad notifications.

Victor Borisoff December 18, 2017
The last update with the super hero game makes the app very confusing. Can I open out? Otherwise Feels more secure then giving away cc. Can I use it to pay online?

December 19, 2017
Android Pay is easy to verify, firstly. So far, it works great on the terminal at my local Asda, as well as the first time using it. By paying £0.80 I got an envelope to open and won a 500ml Coke as well. It may be a one off - but I'd use it daily simply for the ease of use. You can't drop money if it isn't physical currency, as long as you know how to look after your phone. I haven't had it long enough to give 5* but if I don't get the 'error messages' people are talking about I will.

Matty Hallmark December 17, 2017
I love the app and i use it all the time. I only gave a 1 star review to get your attention. On samsung galaxy s8 the app allows me to pay from the retina scan screen before the phone is unlocked! Notgood! That means anyone can use my phone to pay without unlocking it.

Hi Matty. We hear you! At this time, to help ensure customers' payment information is safe, participating payment networks/banks approve unlock methods for Android Pay. The product team is exploring options.
Chris Kiley December 19, 2017
Everytime I pay for something with my phone, I am filled with joy. One thing that could improve the app would be the ability to add notes to transactions to keep track of what the money was spent on.

Love the info you get about where and when you paid for something. People do say the delay between paying and the money coming out of the account is the biggest issue using this method of payment.

It'd be 5 stars if it weren't for lock / unlock problem. Why do I need to password protect my phone if I have to unlock it again every time I pay? Why can't I unlock before I get to the register so I don't hold up the line?

It's a really cool app I'd give it 5 stars. But the one time I used it...the card reader said insert chip...and at that point you mind as well not have the app because the need to still put out your actual card

The app is totally unusable with this error - and I understand that it's because I am using Cyanogen on my OnePlus One but really, this should not prevent use of this facility unless you provide explanation as to why you believe Cyanogen to be "unsafe". Very disappointing.

Jan Harabor December 13, 2017
I've always had both Android and Apple pay enabled and functional in the same time. Last month I decided to use my Android phone (and Pay) as primary. I don't seem to be able to switch between debit, credit and loyalty cards without unlocking my device. I wish there was a function like on Apple Pay whereby double tapping the home button you are able to switch between cards with the device locked. Until paying with this app becomes a seamless and hustle free experience I'll probably use my iPhones a little longer than I hoped to.

Pretty nice way to pay :) l would only like to see an option to need unlocked phone even for small amounts. l will continue to explore what all this app has to offer.
