Works okay for buying standard tickets. the travelcard however is god awful. Ridiculous delays between available tickets and activated tickets being detected on the card. I've also had multiple workers on the trains tell me they never received any training regarding this app, meaning they can't help at all. absurd that such a company can have such a poor app. If there was an alternative, I'd take it in a heartbeat. Edit: 1 year later, same issues still occurring. Terrible.

Hiya, apologies for this issue. For travelcard, can i check if you mean London travelcards or the Smartcard, and for delays, is this for all tickets or flexi seasons, it should take 5 minutes after purchase for the app to be ready to load a ticket on to the card so it'll be be good to know how long this is taking too

Unable to buy a ticket for a train if it is in a few minutes time in the future. Generally the app just frustrates me. I literally do the same journey twice a week but there is no quick buy or buy again option for previous journeys (or if there is I haven't seen it). 26/9/25 update: can now buy a ticket within minutes of a train. Still no buy again feature t! Upping to 3 stars.

Hi Simon, sorry for the inconvenience. We're actually looking into selling tickets on the app closely before the train departs, and the feature is currently with our smart ticketing team for review. At the moment, we sell E tickets about 5-10ish minutes before so this would bring a big improvement.

Very easy plus it remembers you have a Railcard. It gave me a special offer too! It's worth checking often because there are promotions and special offers that are easily missed. Very easy app, took 2 mins to book!! Updated August 2025: I often use another app to book but I always double check. Delighted to save an unexpected £6 on a rival app. Also app shows live time travel which is so useful! Disabled assistance with Greater Anglia is generally excellent 👌🏻
