NationalRail Smartcard Manager 4+

This app often gives “unspecified” error messages. These messages need updating with specific text so you know what the issue is.

The app also needs to be able to tell you when the whole Smartcard network is down for maintenance or upgrade as it has been on a number of occasions.

Validating the smart card is straight forward enough, and it seems to work better than it did when first brought out.
However, even when validation has been successful, it still shows an error message “sorry, we’re unable to read your Smartcard” - I know now to ignore this message because when I go through the process again, it says it has already been validated!
In summary, it works but can be confusing from the messages which pop up.

A necessary app for all Smartcard users as there is nothing else but just isn’t working. Everytime I attempt to view/activate ticket it successfully reads the Smartcard and then crashes/app closes. Normally after 12+ attempts the app stays open and finally displays info on the tickets held on card. Note this is happening iPhone 11 Pro, and app deleted and reinstalled multiple times. Finally there is no means in the app to feedback bug and the app support link here on the store simply opens up the generic national rail contact page.
