Yeah, you should nag that dude about it... Everything on your phone seems completely normal. Last week I couldn't log into omny.info because apparently the servers were down, I had a couple of friends also attempt to log into their OMNY accounts and had the same error, didn't know about the issue until I notified them with photo evidence about what was going on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah something is up because I make sure my phone is unlocked and opened with the app. I checked my Google Pay and it has five taps from the today from that trip, and none of them went through. Just says "Pending", but they don't show on my actual credit card account at all. Meanwhile, I purchased a weekly express bus pass right after I got off of the BxM2 with that same card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had read or interpreted incorrectly that there wouldn't be a mobile app and was wondering about that. Will have to see if Wageworks beats the mobile app (full or beta) with an actual contactless card or mobile wallet support. Hopefully they do an open (to the public) beta of sorts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virtual OMNY card was what they dropped in the last update. Also the no ADB update is ambiguous, here's how it literally reads in the document. If they left out a bullet then it could mean it will launch in December. Otherwise only SBS will have it.

But does that mean the mobile app wouldnt directly support tap do you know/think? If it’s like hop fastpass, maybe a physical card can be added and provisioned in a wallet for use, but a virtual card cannot be provisioned from scratch? Guess we’ll have to wait and see what it all looks like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of thing is really common in Japan to mark paths for the blind. Japan actually installs it on regular sidewalks, not just at train stations. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamen Rider Posted December 5, 2020 Share #946 Posted December 5, 2020 I think we are officially at the point where it's easier to list the stations that are NOT online according to OMNY's master list. & Eastern Parkway-Brooklyn Museum Rockaway Blvd, 104th Street, Aqueduct-North Conduit 9th Ave, 62nd Street, Bay Parkway Avenue I Entire Sea Beach Line Bedford Ave, Livonia Ave, Rockaway Parkway 121st, 85th, Flushing and Hewes are in active on the Jamaica El. The needs all four to be complete, the needs the last two and the needs 121st officially. Ether way, less than 25 stations away from completion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has been said before, the plan was always to roll out OMNY in stages because they are focused on reliability and security, so they are still on schedule with the implementation of OMNY, and they are going in the order that works with their timeline. Simple as that. I will say that so far, the subway stations I have used OMNY at have worked. I would rather they have it done right, then rush it and it turns out a mess, which is what seems to be the case with the express buses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious why they do some sections and then leave some stations alone. It stands out like a sore thumb when you have one stop go unfilled on an otherwise, fully OMNY-enabled line. I know for Eastern Parkway, they're redoing something at the station so it would be a waste to install and then take it out and install it down the line. You have stops that are still not done even though they've announced the line was fully-OMNY enabled.

HOWEVER, on the BxM9, some express buses come from College Point Depot, and those buses don't have OMNY readers. When I inquired about it a few weeks ago, the response was that they were sorry about the mix-up, and that it would be fixed soon, as Queens will eventually come online. Long story short, there are a number of reasons. Some related to the timeline, some related to people rolling this out that don't necessarily use the system as much as some of us do. I'm sure when they rolled out the ads for OMNY being in the Bronx, they didn't even realized that College Point runs some buses in the Bronx, but I can tell you that as early as last week, I've been told that the plan is for Queens and Brooklyn buses to be rolled out with OMNY by the end of this year, so that means the remaining subway stations can't be far off either.
