### 2/5 — Unpraktisch

*2025-07-27, version 5.22.4*

Die App ist extrem einfach gehalten, dadurch umfasst diese keinerlei Busfahrpläne oder ähnliches. Sobald man ein Ticket kauft läuft auch die Zeit ab. Man kann es nicht zu einer beliebigen Zeit starten, wenn der Bus abfährt beispielsweise.
Bezahlung hat leider auch anfangs schlecht funktioniert.
Busfahrer sind unfreundlich und sprechen kaum Englisch. Will man aus Bergen raus, muss man schnell damit rechnen mal eine Stunde zu warten, da wenig Busse überhaupt fahren.

### 2/5 — SMS verification issues.

*2025-07-09, version 5.22.4*

Looks like an easy app to use, but SMS text verification never arrived. We had to buy tickets from the driver, instead.

### 2/5 — Can you combine Billett and Reise?

*2024-10-18*

During our trip to Norway, I couldn’t help but notice how intuitive and useful Ruter was in Oslo. Being able to purchase tickets and also map out your travel was extremely helpful. However, once in Bergen, we had to use the Skyss Billett and Reise apps, separately, to achieve the same purchasing and planning capabilities. Please combine them so it’s closer to the Ruter functionality.

### 1/5 — Payment issues

*2022-09-29, version 5.9.0*

Outdated payment system, poor integration with Vipps. Got a fine/gebyr on the bus because of payment errors. Probably should learn from the Ruter or Kolumbus app.

### 1/5 — Does Not Work!

*2022-09-13, version 5.9.0*

Will not process credit card to allow you to pay for a ticket, which makes it impossible to use. I tried using a local phone number as well as my US number, neither worked.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-08-04, version 5.9.0*

It requires the mobile number to be verified but text message with code never arrives

### 1/5 — For Norwegians only

*2022-07-02, version 5.9.0*

You have to have a Norwegian phone number in order to use the app. Useless for foreign visitors.

### 1/5 — Not able to register as new user

*2018-04-26, version 4.4.7*

Tried more than 10x to register as new user and until now still did not received the code via mobile.

### 1/5 — Does not work with Canadian number

*2016-07-13*

I can't set up an account as it is not sending me a one time password.

### 1/5 — SMS code never arrived

*2025-09-04, version 5.24.1*

App requires a verification with a code via SMS, but that never arrived using a Czech number (+420).

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-08-06, version 5.22.4*

SMS code did not arrive

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-07-25, version 5.22.4*

SMS code never arrived

### 1/5 — SMS not come

*2025-02-14, version 5.22.4*

Cannot log-in due to SMS issue.

I tried to send SMS by apps, websites and ticket machine at bergen. ALL FAILED. Issue is not only on this apps, I believe…

### 1/5 — Was probably pretty good in 2019.

*2024-05-17, version 5.21.0*

Honestly pretty glitchy. Seems like a very old app that no one is actively updating. I‘ve tried to add 3 different cards (1 debit and two mastercard), and it gets denied every time. Used the same „denied“ card to buy my ticket from the machine…makes the app unusable.

### 1/5 — Tickets expire!

*2024-03-24, version 5.21.0*

I was planning ahead for a trip in 2 weeks and wanted to see the price. Made the mistake of purchasing the tickets today and they expire today. This was not made clear in the app. I have applied for reimbursement and if I receive it I will change this review

### 1/5 — SMS code

*2023-09-28, version 5.13.1*

SMS code for country number (Japan +81) didn't receive and I cannot log in.

### 1/5 — US users cannot verify without local SIM card

*2023-09-26, version 5.13.1*

Current as of Sept 2023, you cannot receive the SMS verification code while in Bergen with a US sim card. 

If you create/verify your account back home before coming to Norway, I imagine this app will work fine.

### 1/5 — Unable to verify number

*2023-06-25, version 5.11.2*

Couldn’t verify US number

### 1/5 — Won’t work without international phone plan

*2022-11-17, version 5.10.1*

I’m order to link a card, you need to verify your phone number through SMS, which won’t work over WiFi.

Das Menü ist einfach und klar; man kommt schnell zu Ziel: ein Ticket!

### 5/5 — Very easy to use for tourism.

*2025-08-12, version 5.22.4*

No difficulties to understand how it Works.

### 5/5 — God brukervennlig App

*2025-02-03, version 5.22.4*

Tusen takk

Hilsen en informatikker med fokus på bruk av gode verktøy

### 5/5 — Schnell und Übersichtlich diese App

*2024-10-08, version 5.22.4*

Immer wieder gern ! 👍

### 5/5 — User friendly and uncomplicated

*2023-08-15, version 5.13.1*

I don’t understand all of the one-star reviews. The registration process is simple—I used a  a US phone number without issue—and adding your credit card payment details is straightforward.

### 5/5 — Simpel und gut!

*2023-08-12, version 5.13.1*

Die App ist sehr easy zu nutzen, sodass man schnell an das benötigte Ticket gelangt. Die Zonen sind sehr gut auf der Karte dargestellt.

### 5/5 — Great App For Foreigners In Norway

*2022-07-30, version 5.9.0*

Excellent app! Works for any foreign visitor; just change the country code and your phone number works! Really helped us get around and I bet they’ll add iWatch functionality soon!

### 5/5 — Läuft einwandfrei!

*2019-05-04, version 5.2.6*

Alle wichtigen Informationen über Tickets und Preise, sowie Zonen sind gegeben. Leider ist die Zahlung nur über Visa/Mastercard möglich.

### 4/5 — SMS works fine

*2024-05-21, version 5.21.0*

I don’t understand the bad reviews/issues. I was able to get a text and sign up in under 2 minutes using US number and cc. 4 stars as I haven’t made a journey yet, but everything seems straightforward and simple.

### 3/5 — Could be more convenient

*2021-10-16, version 5.9.0*

I don’t like carrying my phone, should be able to pair to my Apple Watch. Seems like a really basic feature that is missing.
