### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-08-16, version 11.0.7*

Can’t sign up. Can’t sign in. Can’t get a confirmation code. Can’t buy a ticket without signing in. Awful.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with US numbers

*2023-07-07, version 11.0.7*

Doesn’t work with a US phone number - never sends the text. Used my Portuguese number and it worked fine.

### 1/5 — Can’t use it to buy a ticket

*2023-06-29, version 11.0.7*

Doesn’t send text messages to US phone numbers. So I can’t use the app to buy a ticket.

### 1/5 — It works from e-mail not app

*2023-06-27, version 11.0.7*

The app develop needs to check the algorithm for UX entry rules for definition of using or recognizing country code either +1 or  +01 or get rid of separate country code data entry completely.  I tried everything and never received a pin and never got into my account from the app.

### 1/5 — No code

*2023-06-09, version 11.0.6*

Verification code doesn’t come through so can’t buy a ticket and app is useless.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-06-09, version 11.0.6*

Need a verification code sent to a cell phone to activate the app. As pointed out in other reviews, the code never arrives. Text messages are working fine on my phone so all good from my side.

### 1/5 — Didn’t send a one time code, therefore useless

*2023-06-04, version 11.0.5*

Useless

### 1/5 — Can’t buy tickets

*2023-06-01, version 11.0.5*

I can’t buy a ticket without logging in or creating a profile. I can’t create a profile without a text message confirming my number which never comes through even though my phone does work and every other text arrives. So App is Useless!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Text verification does not work

*2023-05-20, version 11.0.5*

Never received a required code to sign up. Useless

### 1/5 — Does not send text message

*2023-04-28, version 11.0.4*

Have tried using on multiple trips over the past year, it always fails to send the one time verification code to a US number, has never worked.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-04-03, version 11.0.3*

Like previous users and reviews, this app does not send the SMS verification code necessary to use this to purchase tickets. Technically, it’s a piece of junk. The only use I can see is having a timetable at your fingertips, but you still have to go and buy a ticket manually because the app won’t send the verification code via SMS. Back to the drawing board.

### 1/5 — Simply doesn't work

*2022-12-12, version 10.4.5*

Not sending SMS code. No help from support agent apart from the advise not to use the app but the website.

### 1/5 — text verification doesn’t work

*2022-11-19, version 10.4.5*

Verification text never showed up. Cannot buy ticket.

### 1/5 — Can’t even start

*2022-08-27, version 10.4.2*

I’ve downloaded, deleted, re-installed, and have been trying all day just to create an account and log in.  It says it will send a code via test message. Twelve hours later and I’m still waiting.  Pretty useless.

### 1/5 — Unable to set up from US to prepare for trip to Norway

*2022-06-22, version 10.4.1*

Tried to set up an account to use the app.  Unable to receive a one time code even though phone number identified as a US #

### 1/5 — Not working

*2022-06-15, version 10.4.1*

I wish I could just buy it on the website. But the only way is through the app. When I got to the point where I am supposed to receive an SMS with the code. Well the code never came I tried several phone numbers and gave up.

### 1/5 — Crashes immediately

*2020-07-10, version 8.0.3*

The app crashes immediately

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Requires an SMS to buy - no good for travellers

*2026-05-31, version 11.9.4*

We travel with a data-only eSIM so as to avoid high mobile rates from our home provider. Requiring an SMS confirmation ( with no email or WhatsApp alternative) effectively makes this app useless for that situation.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for US number

*2024-05-05, version 11.2.3*

The app will not send a text to a US phone number

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-04-20, version 11.2.3*

Just like everyone else says, USA phone numbers don’t receive the code necessary to open an account. Completely useless.

### 1/5 — No text message

*2024-02-23, version 11.2.1*

I have the same issue as other users. In order to buy tickets, you need to create a profile. In order to create a profile, you need to enter a mobile number. However, at least for US numbers, these codes won’t arrive, rendering the app completely useless

### 1/5 — Add USA support

*2024-02-10, version 11.2.1*

Please add a way for the SMS to get to a US phone number. I can't create an account without it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for me

*2023-11-04, version 11.1.0*

I have an American number. To buy a ticket, you need to create an account. To create an account the app needs to text you a code. I tried 5 times and never get a code. So the app is useless for me.

The Ruter app for public transport in Oslo works great. I can buy tickets on the app. Why can’t Flytoget work for me?

### 1/5 — Couldn’t purchase on app

*2023-09-27, version 11.0.7*

Couldn’t complete purchase of a ticket because the verification message never arrived to my US phone number even though my phone is working fine and I’m receiving all other texts.

### 1/5 — Can’t buy tickets

*2023-09-26, version 11.0.7*

Confirmation # never comes after entering mobile details.  Without this, I can’t login and buy tickets.

### 1/5 — US customers cannot purchase tickets with US phone

*2023-09-07, version 11.0.7*

The company confirmed that a customer with a US mobile number cannot use the app to purchase tickets.   Tickets may be purchased on the website.  The app requires texting a code to a mobile phone, and despite displaying a US option, this is not functional.

### 1/5 — Completely Useless

*2023-08-23, version 11.0.7*

Downloaded the app upon arrival in Oslo in an attempt to streamline ticket purchasing, but ended up wasting time. I never received the activation code to create an account and purchase ticket, so I ended up hanging to use a kiosk. If you’re going to force folks to have an account to purchase tickets, this critical weakness needs to be corrected. App has been deleted.

### 5/5 — So handy

*2025-09-24, version 11.5.16*

Great service - I particularly love that I now can print my bag tag on the train too. Something for other airports/cities to learn from (maybe this idea came from somewhere else?)

### 5/5 — No problems  :   )

*2020-04-27, version 8.0.1*

Use it every time we visit Oslo, it works great and is updated regularly,  :   )

### 5/5 — Even Greta Thunberg can figure this out

*2019-09-24, version 7.1.0*

Can’t speak to earlier versions but this version works great. Any idiot can figure it out, and quickly.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-04-10, version 6.3.0*

Very handy to use as a foreigner coming to visit Oslo often

### 4/5 — Flytoget app

*2020-03-01, version 7.6.0*

Seems difficult to edit

### 3/5 — The app is efficient but

*2024-06-11, version 11.3.1*

I had problems after I purchased my tickets. The app didnt let me check on the specific train and it seemed to switch to another station

### 3/5 — App

*2019-04-14, version 6.3.0*

Not sure about it so far but I think there is a problem where everyone gets stuck on the loading screen. Please fix this.

### 3/5 — Great App - lost iOS wallet integration

*2017-11-27, version 6.0.5*

Does what is required.
I think iOS 11 has dulled down the iOS wallet integration but that’s a small issue

### 3/5 — Great App - But No Amex

*2017-01-16, version 5.4.0*

Great app, works really well as a way to speed your trip from Oslo airport to the city ... GBS main failure in the app is that Amex is not supported as a payment method, although you can use Amex to buy paper tickets - please sort out to get 5 stars
