You don’t need this app

Go to Apple Wallet and click add card. Select transit and then Suica. Load it up and you’re done.

Useful app but the worst UX ever

Been using this app for a year linked to Apple Pay and face id. This software, inexplicably decided on a day I was in a rush to stop using Face ID and lock me out. When trying to reset it asks for name, DOB and a code. No problem I hear you say. The UI doesn’t give any indication as to what order for DOB, what character set and to my horror it wasn’t saved in my passwords on iPhone. Now I can still use the Suica but can’t charge from Apple Pay as I can no longer get in. The support is poor and there is no help onscreen.

Language Problem

Non Japanese speaking people should have an option to change the language in English which is the universal language
