- Critical reviews (from the reviews Google Play shows first, in any language):
  - 1★ 2026-09-15, Pete Hotchkiss: Slow to load purchased tickets. The app Devs need to learn what the word cache means. Tracking is faked, and shows trains having passed through stations they haven't. Forces advertising overlays into key stages of the purchasing process. Naga you to add "insurance" to your purchases.

Took me 45 mins to buy a railcard and since buying it there is no opportunity to use it. There is no way to apply it to purchases. The app just suggest I buy a railcard despite already having one. So I spent 35 q…
