It's great that you can use your phone to ride trimet
Great app a little glitchy but functioned
I am impressed with the online help
Trip planner and arrival times never work and won't get fixed
Purchase button remains grayed out after you fill the payment page
Please update your app to support Android Nougat today
And if I cancel sync it shows none of my available tickets
Now it just opens your web browser for the tools
Unable to complete ticket purchase without an account
Reboot phone does not help
I put in my information correctly but got an error message
Couldn't make it past start screen before crashing
But other interface stuff is worse
Description
The TriMet Tickets app lets you purchase and use tickets and passes instantly on your phone—anywhere, anytime. Just download the free app, register your debit/credit card in our secure system, and you're ready to go. WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS APP: • No paper fares to keep track of. • No need to carry cash, count exact change or find a ticket machine. • Buy and use fares instantly using a debit/credit card. • Store multiple tickets on your phone for future use. • Pay a single fare or multiple fares for a group of riders. • Register your debit/credit card(s) in our secure system. • Purchase tickets on your phone or on any computer via our website. HOW IT WORKS: 1. CHOOSE RIDER TYPE: Adult, Honored Citizen or Youth 2. CHOOSE FARE: 2.5-Hour Ticket, 1-Day Pass, 7-Day Pass, 14-Day Pass or 30-Day Pass 3. CHOOSE QUANTITY: You can buy multiple tickets to use later. (A $5 minimum purchase is required.) 4. CHECK OUT: Pay with Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express COMMON QUESTIONS: Do I need to be connected? An internet connection is required to purchase tickets, but you can use/activate your tickets offline. What if my battery dies? Just like with paper tickets, you're responsible for making sure you have a valid fare at all times, so be sure to plan ahead! IMPORTANT REMINDERS: • Activate your ticket before boarding. If you're at a MAX station where fares are required, make sure you activate your ticket (by tapping the "Use"button) before entering the station area. Otherwise, activate your ticket when you see your bus or train approaching. Your ticket must be activated before boarding a vehicle. • Watch your battery level... Just like with paper tickets, you're responsible for making sure you have a valid fare at all times. • We suggest you create an account before purchasing tickets, as this is the only way you can retrieve tickets if you get a new phone. (Note: Active 2.5 Hour and 1-Day tickets are not retrievable). COMPATIBILITY: Android versions 4.3 and higher. Sorry, the TriMet Tickets app is not available for tablets. • Note: We can only support unmodified, stock operating systems. Jailbroken and rooted phones are not supported. • A wi-fi or cell connection is necessary to purchase tickets, but not to use them.
