๐Ÿ†• New in Metrodroid.
๐Ÿ“œ MIFARE Classic: not compatible with all devices - you need a device NXP NFC chipset to read this.
๐Ÿ— Encryption keys are required to read this card.
๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ CEPAS not compatible with all devices (ISO 14443-B).
๐Ÿ†” Only the card number can be read.
๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช Encryption keys are downloaded from the operator.

You require a NFC-compatible device to read cards.

Some agencies have encrypted cards. You need to acquire encryption keys to read them, which are generally unique to each card. Sorry, I can’t help you with this.

Metrodroid and its authors are not affiliated with and public transit agency. Other agencies’ cards using Cubic Nextfare or ERG on MIFARE Classic may also work.

For more details about permissions required, please see the privacy policy.

This is a fork of Eric Butler’s Farebot, with support for additional cards and bug fixes.

Comments on Metrodroid for Android

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… Adrian Silo ยท Aug 25, 2019
Metro droid is an excellent NFC smart card reader, with a strong focus on transit cards. Using a supported card with Metro droid is easy, and it's even possible to view info that's stored right on the card itself. As a fork of Fare bot, Metro droid provides additional supported cards, and even some NFC based cards that are not specifically used for transit. In any case, Metro droid is a useful NFC reader to view the info stored on many different transit cards and other NFC based cards.

I bought Pasco passport in Japan, and now I'm able to check my balance anytime I want to. Very useful app.

After June update, stopped giving the balance to my Clipper Card. That was the reason for getting this app. Uninstalled.

Cannot scan any ezlink card or flash pay after the recent update
โ˜…โ˜…โ˜†โ˜†โ˜† A Google user ยท Oct 6, 2017
It doesn't work with Ez-Link because now Ez-Link uses CEPAS which the app is described to be incompatible with all phones.
