So I used one ticket in the morning (while on the way to work) and another ticket in the evening (while returning home) and I still have 2 tickets which I can activate and only used tickets have expired and unselected tickets are still available for activation!!

And of course I waited for a day to post this reply after checking the status post 00:00 hours
Shame they expire.
Today I used and activated only one ticket and showed it to the conductor. The other 3 tickets are yet to be activated

Let us know if other 3 tickets expire at 0:00 AM
I'm curious about this too. Often go into NYC around 8 or 9 PM, then leave at 1 AM or the following morning. Hopefully it sounds like they can be used another day.

I really don't see how they could implement this in the app without a lot of modification (separate ticket type etc) to mee they just look like 4 individual tickets

Yeah, it will have some server side implementations. APP is just a GUI, a lot of information will be hidden. But you are right, they should point it out in the APP, otherwise it just tricks customers who do not read terms carefully.

I also see many other promotions with the same terms (check the Atlantic City one)

Yes. As long as you are traveling the same route and can produce the ticket if asked. They don't check once they stick the ticket stub in front of your seat.

It's a $hithole.
Born and raised 15 min outside NYC and glad to be out, but Warren and Sussex counties have a lot of beautiful areas. Lots of state parks, farmland, etc. The taxes will forever keep me on the other side of the border though.
