  1. [R3] GoPass 3/5 · US Ratings: Kindly make available weekly ticket and by weekly ticket Thank you Also let the process of adding credit card details be simple
  2. [R7] GoPass 2/5 · US Once a year user: There is no way to buy a child’s ticket so I had to pay for two adults tickets. The stupid cash machine wouldn’t accept my money. There is no frequent asked question section.
  3. [R9] GoPass 3/5 · US SENIOR DAY PASS: I couldn’t find where to buy a senior day pass. It did not appear anywhere on the menu.
  4. [R23] GoPass 5/5 · US All around EXCELLENT: Easy breezy to buy transit pass and plan my trip. Love the Report a Problem button too, easy to report any concerns about my ride! Kudos! 🙏
  5. [R1] GoPass 1/5 · US Too many steps& no senior dart price of $3.: Overcharged me by $3 as I was only offered a $6 day pass. Too many steps to pay. I should be able to tap and pay with a credit card in 2 seconds like most modern cities. The machines at the stops are not a simple tap and and don’t work easily. This needs to be fixed with all the tax money dart is collect from or sales tax.
  6. [R2] GoPass 4/5 · US Would like fewer clicks: Great train ride, would like easier pass buying
  7. [R12] GoPass 3/5 · US Why u dim my screen??: This app keeps trying to dim my screen when using/activating the 3 hour pass to get on the bus. I tried to tap my phone near the ticket scanner and nothing happened but the driver manually accepted my pass after I manually maxed my brightness so he could see it. Weird.
  8. [R13] GoPass 2/5 · US Not user friendly: The app is hard to find schedules and info about finding trains and routes. Everytime we try to use it at the airport we get backed up because there are no signs inside the terminal. There should be instructions on how to get off the skyline and out of the terminal to access the train. I am always fumbling to find the correct ticket and pay.
  9. [R16] GoPass 1/5 · US Ride Disappears: Sometimes, the ride I’m taking vanishes without a trace, and despite my best efforts, I cannot track it. I need to depend on the notification it sends when it’s approaching. It has a lot of bugs that need to be addressed
  10. [R19] GoPass 1/5 · US Payment keeps failing: I tried and tried to process my payment with a new CC and now the app says try later without any indication what is wrong and after how much time to try.
  11. [R21] GoPass 3/5 · US Useful but Bad service: This app it great for convenience definitely and the layout of the app is great but the functionality however is terrible it always glitches many times it say my ride had checked me in me when it has not, many times when I’ve scheduled my ride the details do not pop up but it say my ride is booked so I just have to trust it’s the car when they say my name and it’s also caus
  12. [R22] GoPass 2/5 · US App: App run slow
  13. [R11] GoPass 5/5 · US Trinity express: One of the best deals in Tarrant county!
  14. [R15] GoPass 3/5 · US Low down: Taking away the am and pm passes was extremely wrong
  15. [R4] GoPass 2/5 · US Inefficient directions/wrong times: Pros: buy passes easily. That’s it. Cons: gives weirdly inefficient directions and incorrect times! I have typed in my route multiple ways and it still tells me wrong information. For example, I’m trying to depart T&P Station and arrive at Victory, taking the TRE. It says I have to walk 11 minutes from T&P station to…T&P station. Or it tells me to do that walki
  16. [R18] GoPass 3/5 · US Need improvement: You can buy fare on it but I wouldn’t trust it to plan your routes.
  17. [R24] GoPass 3/5 · US Safety and Difficult to navigate: Have seen several light rail transit system apps, DART is difficult to navigate, especially with schedules of trains and buses that can help you map your trip from different train/bus stops. No real time updates. Overall safety of DART has been poor where homeless people always present in the trains and DART security pays no attention.
  18. [R30] GoPass 1/5 · US Gps system is trash: When you try to plan your route out it’ll give you a bus stop saying the walk is 5 minutes when it’s 10 or 15 min walk. So obviously by the time you get to the stop the current bus you needed to get on has been long pass by. And you’re stuck being late sometimes by an hour because of this horrible gps planner. You have to plan out in advanced and check yourself for mistakes .
  19. [R5] GoPass 5/5 · US Great: Could be better if they find a way to add tap and pay
  20. [R36] GoPass 1/5 · US Update made app worse: Can’t book in advance. When you input the information to leave early, it automatically books you a ride ASAP. Please fix this bug. Highly inconvenient. Thanks.
