Why doesn't it show journey anymore when you tap 'show journey' instead it shows a pop up on how "split save" works???? I didn't ask about that. I wanna see my journey, platform and timings etc. You have to refresh the app a random number of times for the "live tracker" to show at the bottom of the screen to show your journey. It's getting to be a bit too annoying to use now.

Have had a tough time with the application. First ticket I bought with them led me to a train that never arrived. Tracker insisted it had arrived a left. But the station even told me the train had been cancelled. I was never refunded. The second ticket indicated the platform to go to was 5; I ended up on the wrong train. As I write this message the tracker shows it going in a direction the train did not go. This is the first time I've ever had to write a review.

User interface is not optimal, also I don't understand why that simple app needs ~400 MB of storage. Additionally, at least for the BlaBlaCar coaches - either their integration is so bad, or they deliberately scam people by selling tickets knowing the bus can't make it: shortly after the purchase I received a notification that my bus was 59 min late - meaning they pretty much knew it in advance! - I had to buy another ticket and of course my first one was non-refundable.
