Ratings and Reviews
Alternatives are better.
For a kiwi trying to get around Melbourne this app is more confusing than helpful as it can't visually show you where the transport goes on the map. You'd have to know Melbourne already a bit.
I found Moovit much better in that regard, and easier to use too. I'm sure there are others too.
PTV app
The App needs a serious overhaul. You can only register with an Australia phone number so no visitors or tourists welcome.
The app can not register payments from any cards from NZ so once again the service doesn’t cater for anyone not from here.
Sad thing as it would have been great to have been able to use the service. No top up services available at multiple stores. Only able to top up at train stations and very few tram stations.
So many unaddressed bugs
The worst one is when trying to view trips from a stop in map view. The whole app freezes and the only way to get it to close is by restarting my phone. No number of bug reports to PTV have gotten them to fix this issue. At least the old app allows me to see when my bus is coming!
