4. registration & purchase
Faster than at the ticket machine or at the service counter; available every day; independent of opening times, wind and weather. It couldn't be more simple!
Registration before your first ticket purchase is particularly easy: enter your e-mail address, password, first and last name & done.
A BVG / Fahrinfo app account already exists? Perfect! Then log in directly without registration!
Beautiful design, but at least half of the time that I try to buy/activate a ticket, the nearby stops list on the “start location” selection screen never populates, and a search returns no results, despite the map loading correctly. This makes the app highly unreliable to actually use. Problem still persists as of September 2019.
I am logged in, but not seeing tickets already purchased in my account.
After having issues with different app I decided to give a try and get another with better ratings. This app will help you if you are already in Berlin and your phone privacy settings are set to minimum. I tried to book 2 tickets, I’m son traveling to Berlin and tried to get to train as soon I arrive. I wanted to book Single Berlin ABC ticket, still I was asked to enter starting station, unfortunately the app doesn’t allow to type the station you must know Berlin well to know where the airport is and click on the map. Since I need ticket in few hours, I tried to adjust departure time unfortunately this is not allowed. Hopefully Berlin station are still equipped with working ticket machines or counters where tickets can be bought without hassle.
When I try to activate one of the remaining tickets, the location won’t fetch any stations. However single ticket purchases work fine.
I just had to buy a new ticket in a bus since app refused to fetch a ticket.
This App makes getting around Berlin so easy. The functionality is sophisticated- the app suggests your local stop when you only need a single ride and with one click your off. My first purchase I made an error and purchased my ticket too far in advance and the customer service team refunded my ticket with no fuss. Excellent user experience!
Idea is good. But I never know what to expect at each step in the app
The app works and looks great. The only feature missing is an Apple Watch companion app. It will make commuting in Berlin even easier!
