Super convenient, could be 5 Star – VTA EZfare Review

First of all, I’m not sure what the 1 star reviewer who says that this isn’t on the iPhone X is talking about, I’m on an X and this app works perfectly. I don’t typically carry cash or coins so this app has been a game changer. A clipper card is just another card to make my wallet fatter when I’m desperately trying to do the opposite. Since I already carry my phone, being able to buy a bus pass on it and not waste paper or have an extra thing to keep track of is simply wonderful. However, this app could use a few things. The Good: - Super convenient, I can buy my bus pass as I’m boarding and I don’t have to carry cash or coins - the interface and options are simple and straightforward, no excessive bloat For Improvement: - I wish I could buy and have a monthly or annual pass on the app - I buy the same ticket every time, having a “purchase again” option would save me taps and time and make me so much happier - Having active/unused tickets on the main screen instead of in a separate menu would be another tap and time saver Absolutely Crucial: - As you move forward, please keep the app as simple as possible, similar to how it currently is. - Adding Face ID authentication for purchases and logging in would be smart. At the moment, anyone who gets my phone while it is unlocked could buy or use a ticket and be cities away before I track down my stolen phone. Kind of Annoying: - what’s up with all the separate trip apps? I thought tapping those menu options would open functionality in this app. I’d rather 1 app instead of multiple. Just like cutting down on wallet size. Just to tell how great this app is: I was biking back from Hollister this weekend, the total trip distance would have been 132 miles, but, due to the high head wind and 80 degree sun brutally beating me, I decided I was content at 100 (actually 101). With no cash in my wallet and the closest bank miles away, this app let me buy a ticket and hop on the 68 and enjoy the lazy, AC chilled rest of the ride. Thank you VTA
