We have fixed a few bugs and made a couple of technical improvements, which should make the app a little bit better. Thank you for giving us feedback - and for using the app!

Luft nach oben

Tickets kaufen für den ÖPNV, Start-Ziel-Verbindungen mit Abfahrts- und Ankunftszeiten läuft perfekt.
Andere Mobilitätsangebote (Scooter, Bike) funktioniert trotz hinterlegter Zahlfunktion nur dann, wenn man sich per Vipps identifiziert. Das funktioniert ohne Wohnort in Norwegen oder Schweden nicht - und ist frustrierend.

Response from developer

Hei og tusen takk for tilbakemeldingen! Det gleder oss å høre at du er fornøyd med billettkjøp og reiseruter i appen. Vi beklager at autentisering via Vipps for andre mobilitetsalternativer oppleves som en utfordring for deg. Dette er en nyttig tilbakemelding som vi vil videreformidle til vårt app-team. Hilsen Maja i Ruter

Obsolete

Modern travel should be tap in, tap out - like in London. Apps like this are obsolete and make travel cumbersome, especially with guests from abroad. So I take Uber instead

Response from developer

We understand why many people like the simplicity of tap-in, tap-out systems 😊 Today, tickets must be purchased before boarding, either in the Ruter app or on a travel card. We appreciate the feedback and will make sure it’s passed on 💙🚇🚌 Br, Kasper

Put more buses you cheap bastards

Thanks for waiting for 3 hours and not even one bus would stop in the station

Hopeless for a foreign visitor

If you don’t have a Norway phone number, you can’t register. End of story

Response from developer

Hi! We understand the frustration. You should still be able to travel without creating a personal Ruter profile, but some profile features require SMS verification. If you don’t receive the code on a non-Norwegian number, you can still buy tickets in the Ruter app without logging in, or use other official ticket channels such as Entur or Vy. Thanks for letting us know. Br. Kasper @ Ruter
