Metro on line tickets apps
I found out about this app a month ago. I've used it for those moments when boarding a bus and finding out that my Q-Card was missing and I really needed to get to my destination. Therefore, applying for a paperless ticket was in order. It was quick and convenient for me to get a ticket to continue my journey. Kudos Metro for being a leader in allowing your users the opportunity and flexibility of using your app. Again ahead of your time.
Review
Always easy to use.
Ok but could be better
After having been on other trains I wonder why isn’t this app have a digital card I can scan in the train? I would say that level of accessibility will get you more ridership in the long run.
Wish it was a little easier to use
Regarding buses and description on each bus

Thanks for using Q Ticketing! You can still use the app to purchase mobile tickets for METRO local service and Park & Ride bus. This update now includes options for you to also purchase mobile tickets for services on Harris County Transit and Fort Bend Transit.
