The train station parking lot near me switched to using Metropolis for app-based parking. It's garbage.

Are you running late for the train and need to pay after boarding the train? Nope, not possible. The old app let you do this.

Is it raining and you'd rather pay while inside your car before running to the (covered) train platform, instead of standing at the (uncovered) sign with the QR code and waiting for it to succeed? Nope, not possible. The old app let you do this.

What happens if you parked at the train station yesterday and scan the QR code? Well, the app pops up and shows you your receipt from yesterday. You cannot pay for parking unless you close the app and rescan the QR code. The old app did not have this problem.
