This might not be news to everyone, but since 2021, they stopped offering an alternative to the app. You can no longer print or screenshot the barcodes because they roll.

Super lame.

If can wrap your head around the tech, that person figured out how the codes are generated, and made a web page that could make them (without cracking or ‘stealing’ an unpaid ticket)

Smartphones dominate the world. But have we become smarter by using them?

This community is oriented for people who prefer either so-called “dumbphones” or “feature phones” in order to regain control of their life.

Here is a very simple set of rules to follow:

  1. Don’t be rude to others.
  2. Don’t harass or shame somebody for not being hardcore dumbphones fan. Everybody does it his own way.
  3. Keep this community simple: discussions must be dumbphone or smartphone-oriented, not about dogs or food.

All in all, enjoy your time here :D
