Extremely well done.

Best National rail app I have ever used by far.

Ne fonctionne plus

Bonjour, j’ai été très satisfait par cette application durant les deux dernières années.

Cependant il y a environ 1-2 semaines, elle a simplement cessé de fonctionner. L’application s’ouvre, et la majorité des boutons de la bande du bas fonctionnent. Toutefois, dès que par exemple on entre un trajet, les trains/bus disponibles sont affichés, mais IMPOSSIBLE de les sélectionner, ni de faire défiler la page. On ne peut même plus revenir en arrière. Ce bug est également présent sur d’autres onglets, rendant l’application inutilisable.

J’ai demandé de l’aide autour de moi et à des contrôleurs, qui ont essayé mais n’ont pas su me dire: pour eux tout fonctionne bien. Même une réinstallation propre n’y a rien fait.

Je mets une note de 1/5 tant que ce problème n’est pas résolu, car l’application ne fonctionne objectivement pas. Je remettrai une note de 5/5 si cela se résout.

Response from developer

Bonjour. Merci pour votre retour. Ce problème se produisait sur les anciennes versions du système d'exploitation (par exemple la version 26.0.1) et a pu être résolu grâce à une mise à jour vers une version plus récente d'iOS. Avec la version 12.58.5 de l'application, nous corrigeons également ce problème sur les anciennes versions du système d'exploitation. Il est toutefois vivement recommandé de maintenir la version du système d'exploitation à jour. Cordialement.

Erreurs, impossible d’acheter un billet

Impossible de prendre un billet, erreurs JIS 2001, JIS 2003, inacceptable que cette fonction de base ne marche pas…

Response from developer

Bonjour. Merci pour votre retour. JIS-2001 -> Aucune correspondance n'est disponible à la date sélectionnée. JIS-2003 -> Veuillez essayer avec un arrêt ou un autre lieu à proximité. Sans disposer des informations précises et sans connaître l'itinéraire souhaité, il n'est malheureusement pas possible d'identifier l'erreur ni de la résoudre. Cordialement.

Almost perfect

We used this app during our two weeks in Switzerland. The app UI is amazing and maps sync perfectly to one’s location and give an idea about all modes of public transportation for one’s destination.

Cons
If a train or bus is delayed, the message will display a delay but the tracker will continue to show the train/tram/bus moving on the map as if it is on time while one is waiting at the station to catch it. It only updates once you get on the train/tram/bus thus suggesting that there are two different tracking methods, one preprogrammed, where the trains continue along their route (while you wait at a station/stop) and the other one live which “activates” once you get on board. It will be helpful to just have live tracking.

Another con and this might be out of SBB’s control as it is a Swiss app after all, is not showing trains from France (TGV), Germany or Italy when looking up routes within Switzerland. These trains show up on Google Maps.

However, I would still highly recommend this app.

Response from developer

Hello. Thank you very much for the 5-star rating. I’m very pleased that you like SBB Mobile so much. We display real-time data wherever we receive it from the relevant mode of transportation (from the transportation company). This coverage is not guaranteed nationwide. We display trains from abroad that operate on the Swiss rail network according to schedule. Some trains are reserved for international travelers (ticket and seat reservation required), and in such cases, we actively direct domestic travelers to alternative trains. I hope you continue to enjoy your travels with our app. Best regards.

Fehler in der App zahlt der Kunde

Beim Versuch ein Ticket zu kaufen funktioniert Apple Pay ohne Angabe von Gründen einfach nicht, trotz mehrmaligen Versuchen an verschiedenen Tagen, in anderen Apps gibt es aber kein Problem damit. Als Alternative dann EasyRide genutzt, aber leider findet während der Zugfahrt ein App Update statt und danach ist kein EasyRide mehr aktiv. Dem Kontrolleur interessiert das natürlich nicht, er stellt nur das Bußgeld aus. Die App muss mit solchen Situationen umgehen können, dass die App upgedatet wird, während easyride läuft. Sehr ärgerlich!

Guten Tag. Danke für Ihr Rückmeldung. Ich bedaure die Problematik bei der Zahlung mit Apple Pay in SBB Mobile. Wenn die Zahlung nicht klappt, wird eine Fehlermeldung ausgegeben und ein entsprechender Code. Dieser Code für für eine konkrete Analyse helfen. Mögliche Workarounds: Erfassen Sie das in Apple Pay hinterlegte Zahlungsmittel direkt in SBB Mobile. App Updates werden im Hintergrund durchgeführt. Diese haben keinen Einfluss auf eine laufende EasyRide-Reise in der App. Ausser die App wird gelöscht oder ähnliche nicht erlaubte Vorgänge durchgeführt. Freundliche Grüsse.
