So I can't scan any of my ORCA cards, very frustrating

Works well, I live in the SF Bay Area and it works great with my clipper card, haven't had an issue with the app, and it's super useful

Works fine on ezlink singapore (with transactions history) and octopus Hong Kong card (balance only) and passmo Japan card (with history). Not sure about others.

Worked well when I first installed it, later had to turn NFC off and on to get it to read my Clipper card, now it won't work at all.

Bay Area Clipper card works just fine. Hold the card against your phone for a few seconds and your card details should pop up. I'm running a Pixel 3a.

No longer works with SF Bay Area Clipper card. Used to work fine. Presuming a new version or OS upgrade to Android 8.1 broke it.
