Start and End point changed by system

The updated app is buggy. When I use the Journey Planner and enter 2 stations (eg, from Wellington to Waterloo), the system will show me inaccurate info. When I then pick “Leaving now”, the Start and End points changed automatically to Station Village Complex and Taita Railway Station. I prefer the previous design of the app cos it just worked. :(

Don’t know when the last update was done but clicking into the app today to check for train replacement buses and there is now an advert for a football match that I can’t click out of and doesn’t disappear. There appears to be a 6 second countdown but the screen is just frozen. Really not helpful when I’m trying to find important information about my journey. It’s a pretty bad app anyway but making it not work at all is next level uselessness.

You leave 15 seconds early. At least wait until the actual time before you leave. You’ll should add on the platform card readers to be able to tag on for multiple people.

Ap was working ok till the latest improvements update. Now when you try to look at real-time location of a bus on the map , and then navigate back to the stop o information it wants you to “pull down” but the layout means you just keep pulling down the iPhone Lock Screen image. And then you have to fully close the ap and reopen to get back to the stop. Rubbish.
