Was it not relatively fast then logging into the site? Also it gave the user convenience of using a Smartphone, well many people will think that they can probably use the website for booking the ticket on a smartphone, but we have heard that the website randomly crashed on payment pages many times. So it’s better to use the app.

PROS:

  • Convenience of Smartphone Booking
  • Material UI
  • Smooth Feel

CONS:

  • Slow at Times
  • Login-In Everytime
  • No Forgot Password Query
