Latest reviews of Opal Travel app for iPhone and iPad

Good, but upgrades needed
Good, it works well. But needed some upgrades: - to check your Opal activities (= trips) directly in the app, without being sent to the website on the browser - also because this needs, every time, a new login. Doing it by the app wouldnt need a login (its always logged in) - a schematic map of the whole transport network of Sydney directly in the app. Now, if I want to know where a station is, I have to look for it with Google Maps - the possibility to see the intermediate stations between two places, only by tapping on the trip info (Google Maps does it!) Once that developers fix these things, the app will work very better!
Useless. Always logs you out
Useless app. Always logs you out and since signing back in is such a pain, theres no point of using this app.
Lacks custom options
Lacks many of the Options available on the website’s Trip Planner. I’m dumping it from my iPhone. I still get better info from the TransportNSW Trip Planner via Safari. Had high hopes, dashed.
Session ends too often
Why do i have to login every pretty much 1hr to check my left over amount. Please let us keep the login
The programmers must be sadists
The app intentionally disables the ability to paste an opal card number when adding a new card. Too much focus on flash. Too little on ease of use.
