Problem with Railcards bought from The Train Line

I am finding the digital version takes far longer to use when buying a ticket.

I could get a screen shot and save it as a photo on the phone to make it easier to locate rather than use the trainline app but I'm not sure if that would be accepted.

I avoid the Trainline because I object to paying an unnecessary booking fare.  Instead, my Senior Railcard is stored (easily) on the Railcard App.  Two taps, and the digital card is displayed.  Might it be worth seeing if you can load your card that way?

When you say your card in stored in the Railcard App, do you actually mean the Trainline App?

Mine is stored on the Trainline App (and stored locally on the phone) but I still have to put glasses on to power up the phone, locate the Trainline app, navigate the menu to find the digital card image to show the cashier when I buy a ticket.

I am talking about buying a ticket at the train station, not buying it through Trainline on the web, so there is no booking fee involved.

There is a railcard app on iPhones, which is offered by National Rail - or the railcard could be a digital card.
