Best UK Rail Operator App

By far the most efficient rail operator app for purchasing flexi season tickets. The only operator I can find that allows flexi season tickets to be purchased via the app and stored on the mobile app itself. Every other operator requires one of the new smart cards when purchasing flexi season tickets. And I use this app despite being for a West Midlands Trains flexi commute. Works a treat and really convenient app better than the rest. Plus the addition of Apple Pay works for me too. Really good work put in here on the development of this app and delighted to write a review in respect of it.

Northern Rail App

The BEST train-Rail app. This app displays in ‘real-time’. If your connecting train is late etc. it even offers you alternative trains for your final destination. Also, this app lets you view in ‘real-time’ the progress of your connecting train. Easy interface to book your ticket either via e-ticket from your smartphone or ticket collection at your departing station. 10/10 for ease of use.

Developer Response ,

Hi. Thanks for the feedback, it's great to hear you're enjoying the app. #GoDoYourThing! Northern

Rough ride but finally arrived

This is finally a useful app. I used this a few years ago and it was bad. In so many of different ways bad. But now the opposite is true. Today is the first train I have been on since COVID started so I thought I’d give it a whirl and yes it is finally useable! Is it prefect? No. But can I buy a ticket quickly and efficiently without swearing? Yes! For me Apple Pay is a great addition. If this was a startup story it would’ve a great success story of learn, improve, release, repeat. Since it is profit generating, massive organisation that should have done this 5 years ago then this is a good example of how not to do it.
