### 1/5 — unnecessarily changed app

*2026-08-25, version 4.4.14*

changed the app to a “new” version which doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Disaster update

*2026-08-10, version 4.4.14*

The updated app is almost unusable. Clearly no usability testing. Even the ticket officers on the train can’t use it. 
Usability - making it easy and obvious for people to use - is basic for a train ticket app. It also fails to deliver consistent results when I search for tickets! Price changes each search. Whatever costs were saved by cutting user testing will be lost via lost ticket revenue.

### 5/5 — SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE NEW ONE

*2026-08-07, version 4.4.14*

I genuinely never had any issues with this app version, whereas the new app won’t even show you your return ticket… seems like an unnecessary change that inconveniences and annoys more than improves the ScotRail experience. #BringItBack

### 1/5 — Badly broken

*2026-08-06, version 4.4.14*

Showing me tickets that are not mine!

Keeps saying download new app, already have , still broken.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-07-30, version 4.4.13*

The old app was fine. This is a poor replacement with less functionality and far from user friendly. Why can’t I save the ****** thing in my apps. It’s such a hassle to use. Back to LNER and Trainline.

### 2/5 — Still new app not working

*2026-07-30, version 4.4.13*

App not allowing railcards to be added

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2026-07-25, version 4.4.13*

So easy to use

### 1/5 — Journey check doesn’t work

*2026-07-22, version 4.4.13*

Try to do a journey check. Asks me to move the slider to the right then when I do it throws an error.

### 5/5 — Top Performance

*2026-07-22*

I had some trouble getting the app up and running, after that it’s been smooth sailing ever since.

### 4/5 — RIP

*2026-07-21, version 4.4.13*

This is is powered by Trainline but with slightly less functionality eg Apple Wallet but it saves the TL booking fee. This would be handy when you need your ticket out of signal. 

Annoying that expired flexipasses don’t disappear and that it sometimes remembers railcards you don’t want to use.

Overall a pretty good app with high reviews but which is now being discontinued.
