Why are the new Myki readers so awful? I'd argue them to be worse than even the first-generation readers with a bad read.
The entire device basically gets locked out on a bad read for about a minute. If your Myki doesn't read properly, or your phone is acting up, a few retries could lock out a big chunk of the station gates.
Yeah, it is slowing me down massively each time. I use a card through google wallet and it used to be so smooth. I am hoping when they enable credit cards I can just let it use my main card and leave it at that.
