Yes, I can now pay with my phone, but I still need a separate app, money pool, etc.
Does Android require installing an app? On an iPhone, I simply selected to add SUICA as a card to the wallet (and I was able to transfer an existing card balance). It's a separate money pool, but that's exactly the same as any stored-value card. And I can now add money to the card using Apple Pay, without going to a station etc.
I'm not saying that this is the bee's knees, but it might be an easy win to improve the experience.
