TfL info improvements with check in/out locations and times

my sister does this but do you now have to intervene if you see an issue?

When i was sworn in as an officer I would intervene regardless of it I was on duty or not

Once you have added your :monzo: :credit_card: to your TfL account, if you nickname it Monzo the :monzo: :credit_card: image will be displayed in the app instead of the generic MasterCard one :rabbit: :egg:

You can also edit the nickname in the app if you Upgrade to Pro :wink:

If you edit the card’s nickname on the TfL website, you might have to logout of the app and back in again, or pull down on the cards screen to refresh the list.

Editing nickname on TfL’s website:

Swapped name and it’s now showing :slight_smile:

Free upgrades for Monzo users yeah? :wink:

Great App. Where can I find it in the Google Play Store?

In case anyone else is wondering, you can set your card as a Monzo card by editing it’s nickname in the settings -

Does anyone still use this and has it been updated? It’s no longer in the app store and @gary has not been online for ages :frowning_face:

I still use it but don’t remember an update since I’ve had it.

Same, it’s a good app.

I like how it shows you your travel near real time so you know what you have spent…

I have an 18+ Oyster card which saves me a heap of cash but It is not comparable with the regular oyster website, it uses some outdated photo card website and you cannot use any of the normal apps even the official Oyster card app doesn’t work.

My kids photo cards work fine with just about everything. It’s only the official app that really has a problem with them. The website and other apps are fine.

Anyone still using this? seems @gary has not updated or been here since

Sorry for not replying sooner, @anon72173902 - I had to remove that version of the app from the App Store.

I’m currently working on a new and improved version of the app. If you’re interested, I can send you an invite to the TestFlight beta, so you can try it out before it’s available on the App Store.

If anyone else is interested too drop me a private message, the more feedback the better! :rocket:

Currently
Downloading CSVs of travel from the TFL website (https://contactless.tfl.gov.uk/) as shown below:
exporting_tfl

This is then integrated with the receipt API, as shown in https://github.com/monzo/reference-receipts-app

The code can be found in Developers group: https://community.monzo.com/t/tfl-receipts-importer/63639

In future
Integrate directly with TFL API. They detailed this in their blog post (https://blog.tfl.gov.uk/2017/09/15/how-we-built-the-tfl-customer-api/)
I don’t currently have time to work this out, but it seems like @gary has done this previously.

When finished, it should be a fairly clean setup process - authenticate with :monzo: then authenticate with TFL. The rest should happen in the background.
Ideally - this could provide the information in real time using the TFL API.

In future future
(With user permission), :monzo: could share card details directly with TFL (as is already needed when signing up for https://contactless.tfl.gov.uk/). This skips all the hassle and would let the user integrate the two directly in app.
