FareBot for Android
Please fix the issue with Oneplus 3. My Suica card barely works with your App on my Oneplus 3. It works great with Oneplus 1. The Suica Reader app from the developer "yanzm" works flawlessly on my Oneplus 3. I really like your Farebot app but this way i have to swipe at least 20 times until it reads my Suica card properly.
I moved to Japan about 1.5 years ago, but it took frustration, a cold, laziness, and random Reddit surfing in a mind challenge to "Hack Transit Card" to find this app! The simplicity and the completeness of the app is impressive, though, and I encourage the developer to keep up the great work!
'Reads' my Clipper card then gives me read failure msg. Compare to Fare Card Reader - that app worked first time with no glitch.
Works great with Orca cards in Seattle. Annoying that the app is opened anytime your phone comes in contact with an NFC chip. Developer: if you add an option in the preferences to disable this and only read cards when the app is open, I will gladly give it 5 stars.
Jakarta Commuter Line service has been using FeliCa card for almost two years. Can you add support for this type of card? I might be able to help you to send a card sample.
Now I can see how much I have left in my clipper card before heading out. One thing: this only reads the cash portion, not my BART high value discount balance. Is there any way to get access to that information?
I like the app but its annoying that I can't place my phone on my wallet anymore. Also I wish the app looked nicer
Before I had heard of this app, I would have to go all the way to a BART station to check my Clipper balance, quite a tedious journey. Now, I just tap my card against my phone and I know my balance, when it was last refilled, and the last few times its been used. This is one of the few smartphone apps that legitimately makes me feel as if we're finally living in the future.
NFC switched on. still nothing after validating my balance manually the day B4. Bal. is $17. appallingly little instruction for an app.
I'm living in dubai, its detecting my NOL card but only displaying raw data, a msg at the bottom says that the card is not supported. Pls make it work with NOL card
Now it can't read the new versions of ezlink in singapore. Please fix the problem soon!
A little finnicky. Liked 2 of my Clipper card, refused to read the other. Could be because the HTC On is a little finnicky itself with the NFC reader.
Using Samsung S4 and was not able to detect Singapore cards. Kindly fix it. Thanks (:
Hi there, any chance we could get this to work with Translink's looming Compass card? That would be just lovely.
Great simple and functional app, worked fine for me with a Galaxy SIII checking on a San Francisco Golden Gate bridge special edition Clipper card. SIII users who haven't used NFC before should note that the reader is in the back center of the phone, so just hold your phone and then hold the face side of the card against the back center and it should pick up.
My friends always come to me to see what's left on their cards cause they have iPhones and never know what's left in their cards
Works great with Clipper cards on my OnePlus One. Does exactly what it claims. On Clipper cards it shows your current cash balance and recent transactions, including refills/top ups and refunds. It does not explicitly show monthly passes, but you can see when passes are loaded under 'refills', so you can easily figure out if you have a current month pass loaded. It took a few tries to find the best place to tap the card - on the OnePlus One it works best to tap at the bottom-back of the phone.
Works perfectly on my Clipper Card. Slap the card on the back of my phone, the app automatically opens, and all my balance pops up. With one tap I can see all my transaction data and trips.
CodeButler, awesome. Should add instructions though to hold card to BACK of phone after turning on NFC. I kept tapping my card in the screen that says tap card. Not very intuitive. And I'm a Smarty. Who was a retard for a moment there.
The app only lets you know the balance on your cards and when it was used and which bus lines you used. It would be tons better if it allowed you to add money to your balance. But you get what you pay for I guess. But it does work well for what it is supposed to do.
Great app, and wonderful for quickly finding out what your ePurse value is, but I've been getting a ton of "tag was lost" errors on my Galaxy S5 - might take half a dozen or more attempts to get it to read. Tried it on multiple cards with the same results (both in and out of the case) - any idea why?
What a useless app. Of course I know how much is on my bus pass, it's useless that all you can do is know what you already know, and can't actually load your bus pass. What is the point?
Love how it gives me my current value and my trip and reload histories. Also love how NFC auto-opens the app when I scan it. My NFC is not always on so this feature is useful. No need to look for the app!
I liked it becaus it worked but it is not any longer
Won't read my Clipper card.
On Asus Zenfone 2, it can read a regular Adult EZ-Link, but not a Passion Card EZ-Link. Worked with both cards on Samsung Galaxy Nexus though. Curious to know what are the reasons and if it's possible to fix it in future updates.
Works, but it'd be awesome if it could export the decoded data (stops and times) instead of just the raw card data.
Doesn't work for my Dutch OV card days need key. Where to get that?
OMG! This is the best Mifare transit card app on the Google Play store! Love it! I will use it often. I have used almost every other NFC reader app, I settled on NXP's TagInfo app and have been using that for years. If I only knew about FareBot, I would have converted long ago
Shows trips you took and how much is left on the card. Very useful and impresses fellow riders.
This is a very simple application that works well with an NFC enabled phone. Nice to be able to quickly know what my balance is. Also useful for expensing some of my trips because it has all the historical data.
Worked perfectly on HTC EVO and EVO LTE. Will not work on HTC one M8. Please fix asap!
Had worked flawlessly before, but I just tried checking how much was on my card and it isn't working anymore.
works perfectly on my Nexus 5 for Clipper cards. Wealth of info that I no longer need to login to the Clipper site to see. Good work! You should update it for Material Design :)
Would be 5/5 if I could replace my orca card with my phone.
Doesn't work with new SF Clipper cards!
Now I almost always get an error message and am stuck not knowing what my card's balance is
Needs to stop taking in all NFC signals when app is closed.. Interferes with other apps that uses NFC
They would get a lot more downloads if it was clear that this works for the San Francisco bay area. I was able to get my balance, a few days of transit info. in which I had used both BART and AC Transit, and a few auto-load's all by just using this application and the Near Field Communication (NFC) to read my card.

Works perfectly on my Nexus 4 with a Clipper card. Shows my balance, my travel history, and my payment history. (A little scary, actually, to know that anybody can read your card and see where you've been). Also: no ads, no bullshit! Thanks, codebutler!
