I saw some guy use his phone to go through the MTR terminal in Hong Kong.
Does the Octopus app have this function with NFC?
I'm guessing the guy just had his Octopus card in his phone case.

You can also use an Octopus enabled SIM Card....

I do have Octopus Sim Card but sadly my phone does NOT have NFC
So yes, Octopus Sim Card (CSL, 1010 & Sun Mobile) + phone with NFC = Beep
Hmmm, I misread this title and thought the OP was asking if you could play the MTR barrier beep sound with your phone so you can jump over the barriers and not pay...
This sounds like a great idea for buses/mini buses to fool the driver to thinking you have paid. HK'ers are great scammers so I would not be surprised if there is an app that does this already
Personally, I have decided that when Alipay becomes available at the MTR and you have people holding up their phone screens with QR codes to the gates, that's the time when I leave Hong Kong and never come back.
You can use Alipay on some minibus routes already.
Alipay QR payment will be available for MTR by mid 2020

Misunderstood, I thought there was an app u could use on your phone like a car horn to get people to move out of your way on the MTR.
