### 1/5 — App Won’t Work

*2018-11-27, version 1.4.13*

Purchased an Opal card that is registered to me. App will not let me get past the first screen asking for card number and pin. Keeps saying invalid, but info is valid. I have since downloaded another app that works, but frustrating because I paid for this one and Apple has not refunded my money.

### 1/5 — Central ?

*2017-09-17, version 1.4.10*

The Opal fare calculator does not work. Central station not found?  Bugger!

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it says on the tin

*2015-07-11, version 1.4.9*

Looks great, shows me everything I need to know (even on my watch).

### 1/5 — The most useless app

*2015-02-09, version 1.4.4*

Thought it can top up my card. Only found out this app tells you how much you spent and that's it. Nothing else

### 5/5 — Good

*2014-12-22, version 1.4.3*

its help a lot!

### 5/5 — Great App!!!

*2014-11-26, version 1.4.3*

Great app, very useful for keeping track of my Opal usage.

### 2/5 — Worked fine until the current version

*2014-11-05, version 1.4.1*

Simply crashes on open after most recent update rendering it completely unusable. 

Tried deleting / reinstalling but no dice. (iPhone 6+)

### 3/5 — Perfect if it worked with NFC

*2014-10-12, version 1.3.2*

This is great for what it is. Would have scored 5 stars if the App could use the NFC in my phone as a card alternative. Next version? Being able to swipe quickly between my account's different cards is great. Travelling as a family, it would be perfect if one of the parents could scan on for everybody with this method rather than fumbling with 4+ cards. Using my business card for work trips would be simpler also rather than having to carry multiple cards.  Surely it would be cheaper for the operator also to implement this than having to send out actual cards.

**Developer response:** NFC support would be awesome and it's something I'd love to have too! Unfortunately there's no way to do that on iOS just yet and if it were possible it'd be something that only TfNSW could implement in their official app.

Anything for one less card in my wallet :)

### 4/5 — Well worth it!

*2014-10-07, version 1.3.1*

I'd give it 5stars if it updated faster, but it's still so much better than logging onto a website, signing in with the 16 digits and the password. I can see daily what I've been charged and when I'll earn my travel award. Fantastic!  Thank you!!
