I can't transfer it into my wallet from my iPhone to my new android. I'm still waiting for clipper to update me as a senior.
★★★★★Ashley Davenport· Aug 15, 2026
The clipper card company is the best option for paying to travel on any of the bus lines in San Francisco and the east bay of San Francisco as well!
★★★★☆Jenna Brown· Jul 18, 2026
It works, but never stays logged in, even with "remember me" checked. In fact, it starts logged in, then logs out after opening! Then you can log in again...

At first when updated in Google Play there were many pages that appeared blank or missing data and nonfunctional, for example, I could not set up auto reload or add a new payment card, or update security settings or profile information in the updated clipper app. The solution is to clear the app cache and data in Android apps management. Then load the app and login. The missing pages will then appear and function properly.

It is not letting me add my Senior/Disability card. The card I have on it isn't showing my actual balance on it. P.O.S. app.
★☆☆☆☆Henry Read· Aug 29, 2026
Terrible. I have to delete and reload it every time I want to do anything. But I do ride transit in the bay, so I do need it no matter what a glitchy mess it is.
★☆☆☆☆C.E.P.L Sealund· Jul 27, 2026
Horrible app, hard to use and never really works the right way. Not easy to add cards or update your account, always have to log in via web browser. Total waste of storage space since you add your card to wallet directly.
★☆☆☆☆Kiana Ramirez· Aug 21, 2026
Every time I open the app its so slow just add money in my clipper card. I have places to go. I hope guys fixed this problem.
