Ratings and reviews

UPDATE: constantly dithering trying to load the Top Up button so I can't actually top up my Octopus in a hurry when I need to. Super annoying since the Top Up function is practically the only useful function of this app. Disorganised app that doesn't offer much useful functionality for users.

One of the most basic things that this app should be able to do - check the balance of an Octopus card via NFC - does not seem to work without a data connection. There is no reason that this shouldn't work offline as Octopus balances are written to the card itself, and the third-party "Octopus balance reader" app on Play Store has been able to do this since 2010 - yet this "official" Octopus app just complains it can't read the card. Makes this app a bad choice for elderly family with no data.

The notification pops up with messages, but when you click it and goes to the App, you cannot find the message again. Normally the app should keep the pop up messages in the message area but it is not there.
