What's New in Ride East Mids

1.24.0

November 3, 2026

- Bug fixes - Minor improvements

User reviews

Decent

The NCTX bus app is just way better when the bus is on a diversion it disappears from the map but when it’s back on normal route it appears again so can’t plan ahead. Also it’s not very accurate at live tracking.

Frustrating

This app could be so good, but it’s so temperamental when it comes to payments. It says that the payment has failed about 50% of the times I buy tickets. I’ve even bought a ticket on it successfully then tried to buy an additional ticket for my child and it’s rejected my second payment. Live chat say there is a bug and I need to keep removing and reloading my payment details. It’s just too frustrating, I’ve gone back to buying a ticket on the tram platform…

Response from developer

Sorry about the failed payments, and the mixed message from live chat. This usually isn’t a bug in Ride. Card issuers (banks) run their own fraud checks, and several purchases close together, like a second ticket straight after the first, can be flagged and blocked. Removing and re-adding your card works because it prompts your bank to check the card again, but these steps should save you from doing that each time: approve any alerts in your banking app, and wait about 2-3 minutes between purchases. If it keeps failing, please email support@rideeastmids.com with the times of the failed payments, and we’ll look into it for you.

Bad QR codes

The app doesn't work on an iPhone. It creates QR codes that won't scan. I've tried the app twice, and twice it failed. I'll just use the NCTX app. I'll delete this one.

Response from developer

Sorry your ticket wouldn't scan. That's frustrating, especially twice. We took your review seriously and tested scanning on several devices over the weekend, but couldn't recreate the issue. On iPhone, a few things usually sort it: turn brightness up to maximum, wipe the screen, and hold the phone flat and steady with the QR code facing the bottom of the green reader. If you don't see the green tick straight away, slowly move the phone slightly closer or further away until it reads.

Regional Live Data

It has a friendly interface. Good real-time transit status: buses, ebikes. As far as I’m concerned there are no moving icons for trams and trains. Not a big deal, but to have the bigger picture, would be good if you could still see all the moving transit Icons when zooming out few more levels.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! We’re actively reviewing how we can incorporate NET and train live updates in the Ride app. If you notice anything else, please share it via Account → Help us to improve.

Live Tracking is Fake

Advertisement claims the app can track buses live, which is not true. The 34C has a diverted route on university campus but the ride app “tracked” the bus on the original route. The app claimed the bus was across campus when it arrived at my stop.

Response from developer

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. While Ride does track in real-time, your feedback has highlighted an issue when deviated routes are being used. We will look into this as a matter of urgency and will update you via our blog (transportnottingham.com) on options and our approach to resolving this matter. Thank you for your feedback!
