Good

Never accepts credit cards

Lacking Mordern Features

No E-Tickets,
no Apple Pay,
having to enter account details manually, autofill on fields doesn’t work
Filtering tickets greys out others, doesn’t reduce the list.
Looking at later or earlier times takes ages to load.
Requires full calendar access to save journey to calendar, this is unnecessary

Requests cookies but the app works when rejecting all, why use cookies then?

Definitely the worst railway app. Same prices on LNER or GWC, only went on here hoping I could pick my seat which I can’t.
