### 5/5 — Única e inigualable

*2025-10-24, version 4.0.3*

Llevo más de 1 año usándola, es la mejor que hay en el mercado. La recomiendo a todos, es rápida e incluso me ha funcionado sin tener cobertura de datos.

### 1/5 — No la ocupen para bip

*2025-10-23, version 4.0.3*

Se cayó esta mañana. Tenía dale qr activado y dejó de hacer qr. y decía error. Tuve que abrir mi tarjeta bip en otra app y perdí el dale qr. quien me devuelve todo lo extra que tendré que pagar en pasajes? No tienen forma de contactarlos para dejar un reclamo. Pésimos!

### 5/5 — Bypay?

*2025-10-19, version 4.0.3*

¿Cuando se podrá vincular la tarjeta de bypay que funciona en Rancagua?

### 5/5 — 👏🏼 Mucho mejor que RED y mercadopago

*2025-10-06, version 4.0.3*

Recomiendo agregar el widget en pantalla bloqueada para estar siempre a un touch del QR. Automáticamente sube el brillo de pantalla al mostrar el QR y al ocultarlo vuelve el brillo a tu configuración 👏🏼

### 5/5 — .

*2025-10-02, version 4.0.3*

me salvaron la vida

### 4/5 — Excelente app pero…

*2025-09-26, version 4.0.3*

Me encanta la app, pero desde iOS 26, no deja editar las tarjetas por lo que solo quedan con los colores por defecto 🥺

### 5/5 — Muy funcional

*2025-09-24, version 4.0.3*

Esta buenisima

### 5/5 — Excelente!

*2025-08-29, version 4.0.3*

Subirse a la micro y al metro en 2 clicks, y cargarla con plata es facilísimo también

### 5/5 — Me salvó!

*2025-07-30, version 4.0.3*

Usaba la app de Banco del pato hasta que me bloqueo la app y encontré esta app y pude crearme una bip en 4 minutos. Me salvó con la cita del doctor.

### 5/5 — Práctica

*2025-07-14, version 4.0.3*

Cómoda de usar pués sabes el saldo que tienes. Como dicho antes es práctica.
