Ratings and reviews

Not good. Can't load the septa pass from the app. Have to login somewhere else. The app has outages leaving you at a stop wondering if a bus route has been detoured past your stop, a common occurance. When you are on the bus your location usually shows you just ahead or behind it. The buses update much slower than your location. It will show a bus about to arrive that has passed you. Just look up the schedule.

On the whole, it is a useful app that is easy to use. My one frustration has been with trying to buy a fare product using funds from the wallet. I had precisely $13 in the wallet. The anywhere flex pass is $13, but the screen says insufficient funds and will not let me choose that as a source for payment. I have to call SeptaKey customer services for them to execute the buy.

This is just barely useful. The biggest issue is that Favorite Routes/Next to Arrive shows only the next three trains, and to see any more, or to plan for tomorrow, you have to manually enter the same route into Schedules. This is INSANE. Another issue is that the app requires read permission for your files so that it can download and access new schedules. Why does it not just access a database for most routes and store your favorites in its local folder?
