Accessibility Comments

The app is pretty simple to work with. Selecting departure and arrival stations is quite easy, and the date picker is set up very nicely with each month being a heading.
The only struggles are that VoiceOver does not announce if elements are selected or provide clear information on how to change the number of passengers or toggle if a wheelchair accessible seat is needed.
When adjusting the number of passengers, you have to use the VoiceOver actions rotor, but VoiceOver will not notify you of this even if you have it set to do so.
There is an option that says Premium Fairs, but VoiceOver cannot select it. If you want a premium trip you will have to select that option on each ride.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Button Labeling

Most buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

There are some minor accessibility issues with this app, but they are easy to deal with.

Other Comments

They say you can keep your tickets in the app, but I could not find them there and had to access them from the email link they sent me.
