Yeah there's no way I'm using my phone for this stuff even if I had that option. I don't trust batteries, wireless networks and modern software enough. I do use Google Pay, but I always have the physical card just in case.
- sneak 5y agoSuica on an Apple Watch is one of the most convenient things ever in the Tokyo metro or at a konbini.

- sneak 5y agoYou have to tap it to exit, the Tokyo metro is not flat fare. Loading the card into an Apple wallet transfers everything into the device, the card doesn't work after that (IIRC).
