True Time
The True Time portion of the app that tracks the bus times NEVER works. It took 45 minutes yesterday for anything to load and the map kept reconfiguring to areas outside of Pittsburgh. Very annoyed.
Super buggy app
The app is very buggy and does not feel native on iOS. It shows my pass as inactive when it’s active, shows an annoying notification at the top that is not relevant, it asks me to top up when I have a monthly pass, and doesn’t allow we me to add my pass to Apple wallet.
Please add Apple wallet support so I don’t have to go into the app!

Apple pay takes your $$$
Be careful because if you use apple pay it won’t actually buy a ticket. It charged me and it says I have $0
Works well
This app worked quite well for purchasing single tickets. I was able to purchase the ticket using Apple Pay then scan it when entering the bus, no problem. The bus tracking didn’t seem 100% accurate, that’s a minor quibble though.
Worst
I hate this app so much. It never scans - just pulls up my apple wallet so then I have to keep going back. Holds the lineup because we’re all doing the same thing.
Apple Pay bug
Apple Pay should be disabled when qr code is showing to scan. Please fix this
Declines cars
This app will not take one of my debit cards the first time I tried using this particular card it works every time after that it’s declined it there’s been numerous times or that’s the only card I had money on and I needed to get on the bus and couldn’t becausethe app keeps declining that card
Not ready
Does not support children fares and scanner on bus keeps going to Apple Pay instead of recognizing the activated ticket.
The app is horrible, I had to bought it again
The app is horrible, I activated the ticket right before I board on the bus, but the QR code doesn’t work, so I have to bought a second ticket
Please fix Apple Pay
Great app but please fix it so that Apple Pay works as a payment option. Or remove that button option completely because it is so prominent.
Why? Just why?
Why do we need to add funds? I can pay for metered parking using an app connected to a credit card. Why not bus fare? Actually, why do we need an app at all? Other city’s systems accept Apple Pay - this technology is available.
Tap & Ride Feature not fully working
The app has the ReadyRide feature which automatically deducts the cost of a ticket from a saved balance. This works most of the time; however, some buses aren’t programmed properly and you’ll get an invalid error code so to ride the bus you end up having to buy a ticket instead. It can be embarrassing when you have a rude bus driver talking to you like you’re either an idiot or a degenerate trying to get a free ride. I have countless emails to/ from management who’s told me that it’s the device in the bus that’s faulty not the app/ phone. You need to be careful because sometimes if you have a ticket( daily/weekly/monthly) it will still deduct money from your account, essentially double paying. I have NEVER been refunded when this happens. Email customer service and all you get is apologies but apologies don’t get you to work.

Completely Inoperable
Won’t even open. Have sat for minutes with a black screen waiting for the app to load. Completely inoperable.
PLEASE FIX this bug
I use this daily to commute to work, but keep having issues with my Apple Pay displaying whenever I scan the QR code. I'll have the QR code ready, scan the code but it triggers the Apple Pay to display.
Occasionally Inaccurate
Sometimes struggles to accurately track buses
Developers need to go back to high school
I’ll write in simple terms because the app developers seem to lack fundamental education in their own field: Simple features not available. Clunky. Trouble using with iPhone. When QR code is on screen and phone near bus QR reader, cannot scan QR code because Apple Wallet is triggered to open. This delays getting on. Other passengers mad. Bus driver mad. Please be able to add annual pass to Apple Wallet. Get it? Simple enough language?

Brew
Works very well.
y'all owe me $
tried to buy a ticket. kept saying there was an error and to try again so i did. got no tickets but was charged for every attempt
Convoluted way to pay for one ride
Why do I even need this app? Why can’t PRT use same system as used in NYC and Chicago to tap phone or card? This is soooo convoluted and unnecessary. I also bet they spent a ton of money designing and implementing this convoluted mess. Sorry, I could not rate lower than one star.
Disfunctional app
As other people have mentioned, you can’t use Apple Pay or credit cards to add funds even though the app supposedly gives you that option. It’s paramount to false promises. Can’t track light rail trains on it either. Overall, not a user friendly app and basically useless to me. Shame.
