Comments on RIPTA Wave for Android

★★★★★ Thomas Machado · Jan 29, 2025

Works great love the transfer times seems there equipment is not always working, so it doesn't scan it, but they see that understand and still let me on overall Rita is a great compassionate company who cares for the people

★★★★★ RODY FINLEY · Feb 18, 2025

The app is great, so convenient, and beneficial to anyone who uses this app. If you're living in Rhode Island and Rita is how you get around, you need to download this app. The app is on your phone that you take with you everywhere, so you'll always be prepared to hop on Rita. Check the Rita bus schedule and check the approximate time that the bus will be heading your way. I love it. Go get the app.

★★★★★ Trevor K · Nov 26, 2025

This is just a review for RIPTA customer service in general. They were very helpful on the phone today after I added a day pass to my account and then accidentally deleted the Wave card on that account, which also deleted the day pass. They were able to completely recover my virtual card and day pass within a few minutes! Nice people too.

★★★★★ Jo-Anne Harris · Jul 3, 2025

I have no problem taking the bus but sometimes the bus is overwhelming and the drivers just drive right by me, and I don't like that at all especially in the rain or snow ugh.

★★☆☆☆ rocco d'errico · Sep 6, 2025

Always errors. Ripta service is horrible unless you live in Providence. They cut service for other cities. The bus is never on time you always miss connections.

★☆☆☆☆ Brook Simmons · Jul 21, 2026

App has multiple cards and technical issues so not user-friendly. If you try to delete a virtual card you will just get error pages which is why people are probably losing their money. They removed the resources to contact customer support as when you click on it the web page says 404 Not Found. How is it 2026 and RI still can't fix this issue. It also should not be difficult or such an obstacle to get in touch with customer service

★☆☆☆☆ Mick Mayer · Apr 17, 2026

Doesn't work most of the time, won't let you purchase credits for rides and often doesn't work when scanning on the buses. It literally doesn't do what it's designed for.
