### 1/5 — Muy mal App

*2020-02-03*

Aquí cobran ., el servicio debería ser gratuito siempre

### 1/5 — Decepcion

*2019-07-06*

Muy mal usar una suscripción mensual por algo q es gratis en la misma pagina o en otras aplicaciones

### 1/5 — Es con suscripción de pago pero no lo indican

*2019-07-04*

Después de tanto tiempo usándola gratis ahora dentro del app te pide suscripción. El problema no es pagar sino que no indica en ningún lugar, a esta fecha, de qué hay que realizar pagos porque aún se mantiene como app gratis y no indica compras dentro del app a pesar de que esta “actualizada”.

### 5/5 — Buena app

*2018-12-21*

Muy buena app, muy accesible, espero que se mantenga así, porque las personas con discapacidad merecemos eso acceso a la información, gracias

### 5/5 — Best Panamanian app ever

*2018-12-19*

This app is so helpful because I can see my bills, and do not forget to pay them, specially the water and waste service.

### 5/5 — Muy buena

*2018-05-28*

Solo les falto poner la del servio de Internet y Cable....

### 3/5 — Sometimes yes Sometimes no

*2018-05-25*

The app often works quite well but it takes a long time for the balance to update after it has been recharged. That means that the balance it gives may or may not be accurate.

### 5/5 — Buena app!

*2017-10-16*

Excelente! Actualiza a tiempo real!

### 4/5 — Me Encanta ( lleva una Recomendación )

*2017-09-26*

Está App es muy buena muy funcional llevo el control de mis tarjetas y las de mis familiares pero me gustaría que mejorarán si es posible Que digan en qué estación del metro fue utilizada la tarjeta y si en algún momento es posible cuando es en metroBus decir si fue en una zona Paga o la ruta del bus ... eso ya es a futuro pero la de la estación del metro creo que si es posible 
EXELENTE App me encanto la Última actualización 🙌🏻🙌🏻🇵🇦
Ah y con respecto al PanaPass Tambn si es posible decir en qué punto fue usado

### 5/5 — Essential app for keeping track

*2017-08-15*

This is a very great app for keeping track of my balances to avoid getting on the bus or metro only to be declined and a big red light causing embarrassment.

Easy to use and almost instantáneos updates of all my transport cards. I highly recommend this app!
