### 5/5 — Indispensible

*2025-10-10, version 4.056*

An incredibly important app in my life; I use it to ride buses from multiple agencies. It's a pretty stable application, too. I like it.

### 5/5 — No hiccups!

*2025-09-07, version 4.056*

Some people say to take a deep breath and then swallow or to have somebody scare you to rid you of hiccups — I say if you’re trying to get RT passes anywhere in the greater Sacramento area use this app. I’ve had zero issues/ hiccups while using this app! 
Kudos ZipPass, kudos.

### 4/5 — Fine app

Very convenient. Thank you

### 5/5 — Penny

*2025-08-03, version 4.056*

So convenient and easy. Like getting 20 Sac Go Paratransit tickets at a time and only 1 credit card entry. No need to carry cash, and always have my phone; do I can always purchase quickly and not need to wait postal service to deliver.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Need a compass to navigate this app!

*2026-03-28, version 4.056*

Can’t find how to buy my pass !

### 1/5 — Need to be able to cut and paste code

*2026-02-18, version 4.056*

Need to be able to cut and paste code

### 1/5 — No SacRT bus fare

*2026-02-17, version 4.056*

I could not purchase SacRT bus fare on ZipPass.

### 1/5 — App needs improvement

*2025-12-13, version 4.056*

Do not ask me why I cannot update my credit card. Do not ask me why no one at SAC RT is making this an urgent issue. I missed my bus to work because I could not get this application to save my new VISA DEBIT CARD.

### 1/5 — Piece of junk

*2025-09-17, version 4.056*

You can’t change your email, though it says you can. When adding payment, it offers only autofill, but puts the values in the wrong field. Essentially unusable.

### 1/5 — Won’t accept @icloud addresses

*2025-02-21, version 4.056*

Like the title says.  Can’t use this app.  2nd time writing this review since apparently the 1st was removed.

### 1/5 — App Doesn't Work

*2024-10-24, version 4.056*

I'm confused how this has 4+ stars it doesn't work, when I try to pay for my ticket it declines. No matter what card I use. 0 stars make a convenient app that conveniently doesn't actually work.

### 1/5 — can’t sign up and sign in

*2023-08-09*

I've been trying to sign up for this app a whole morning, but it keeps saying "your email has not been verified", but I've never received any verification email. Then I try to follow the instruction choose "forget password", and I can change my password but still can not log in, and I even can't sign up with this email address because it says there's already an account use this address. Please help solve this issue, this is so important for me.

### 1/5 — impossible to sign in

*2023-01-19, version 4.056*

I tried restarting the app, restarting the phone, restarting my connecting, time on my phone is updated automatically. nothing works

"The time on your device is incorrect. Please set the time on your device to the current time and log back in."

### 1/5 — Inefficient

*2019-12-03*

The app is alright, other than the fact I cannot have my passes on Apple or Samsung wallet, never mind any other options. This was supposed to make life easier but it’s not easier. Connect card should be on here... it should be upload able to apple wallet, I should be able to use my phone to scan the darn machines rather than carrying yet another piece of ‘earth unfriendly,’ and wallet-stuffing plastic card. The machines should be on the actual light rail rather than on the platform (that way someone dashing on the train can still pay). All in all, the systems set up by Sac RT and affiliates are alright, just far from being an efficient use of people’s time and money. It feels like a piecemeal effort rather than a wholistic approach to efficient digital systems for public transit. Nice job, but, you’re far from done.

**Developer response:** Hello DottieDiamond,
We are sad to know that your experience on the app was not satisfactory.  Any additional suggestions or feedback can be sent to support@bytemark.co and we will look into it at the earliest.
