I have also noticed that you have to re-enter a username/password each time you use it. The login screen is not mobile friendly and probably doesn't meet accessibility guidelines.
GWR also appear to have removed the option to pay via Google Pay/Wallet.

I usually buy my rail tickets from my local station but if I am making a longer journey with multiple split tickets and/or advance tickets, I use the GWR website.
However, it seems that following the GWR website update earlier this year, you are now limited to purchasing only one journey (single or return) per transaction. To book multiple journeys, you must complete them as separate purchases as the "add another journey" feature is no longer available.
This is a real nuisance, especially when trying to book a long journey using split tickets!

I discovered last weekend that the SWR website has been subjected to the same 'improvement'.

Other (far more user friendly) ticket purchase websites are available.

I don't think I would apply the word "update" because that suggests an improvement ...
What an unfortunate co-incidence that buying longer journeys in sections - a perfectly valid practise - has been made so much harder.
