This app works fine… until you actually need it. As long as trains run normally, it’s okay—but that’s exactly the problem. During disruptions, platform info doesn’t match the station, routes become unreliable, and updates come too late. I’ve missed multiple alternatives and ended up waiting hours longer than necessary. It doesn’t help in chaos—it reports it after the fact.

Incompetence of the highest level. I need to log in to buy a ticket and after going through the steps to reset some long-forgotten account, I end up with "a technical error has occurred". I just want to buy a ticket, the most basic functionality this app can offer. How you manage to put 20 broken steps in-between me and a ticket is beyond me.

Terrible. i have a banking app on my phone it cant seem to find, the old version had no problems finding it. I had to create a paypal account just to be able to buy traintickets, thats crazy. The search in the old app was better too, actually everything was. Bring back the old app. And in the meantime fix the payment flow. Would give 0/5 if i could, always have some kind of problem when I use it. Update: still terrible, now endlessly loading a ticket i already payed for, need it for tomorrow.
