Data security and authorisations.
What permissions does SBB Mobile need and why?
Location
For connections from your current location, the GPS function must be activated so that SBB Mobile can find the nearest stop. This also applies if you want to have the nearest stop displayed in the timetable.
Calendar and e-mail
You can save connections in your own calendar and send them by e-mail (to friends, an external calendar). SBB Mobile requires read and write permissions to be able to import your desired connection into the calendar.
Access to the camera
SBB Mobile requires access to your camera to take pictures directly in the app for your personalised touch timetable.
Internet access
SBB Mobile requires internet access to search the timetable as well as for ticket purchases.
Memory
To support offline functions, e.g. station/stop list, connections (history) and purchased tickets, SBB Mobile requires access to your device’s memory (saving app-specific settings).
What’s New
Version 12.36.0
· General bug fixes.
· Vouchers can now be used as a payment method. Credit balances, payment methods and vouchers can be clearly viewed and entered in the new wallet function.
Ratings and Reviews
Time zone problem?
Dear SBB, thank you for a very useful app, which I used on our recent holiday in Switzerland, particularly for travelling from and back to the UK. I have just detected what appears to be a small problem with time zones. The travel time between London St Pancras and Paris Gare du Nord is about 2h 15m. However, for the journey from Paris to London you give the travel time as greater than 3 hours. I think the software is adding 2 h to the apparent time, rather than 1 h.
Best wishes und danke vielmals

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. I am very pleased that you like SBB Mobile so much and that you also used SBB Mobile for your return journey via Paris to London. This is actually a challenge for the timetable application within the app to display this correctly with the different time zones at all levels. We are working on this very issue. Kind regards.
Ok for timetables
Ok for timetables most of the time though it has been slow to update cancellations and thus offers invalid services. Big issue though is login and password reset fail.

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. SBB Mobile obtains timetable data from Timetable Data Management. As soon as delays and changes are recorded there, we can display them. The situation on site changes very dynamically in some cases and changes can therefore not be displayed in "real time". Thank you for your understanding.
Please check whether the "Block all cookies" option is activated in Safari. This must be deactivated for the login to work. Set the time on your device to "Automatic" if this is not already the case. If you are using a VPN, antivirus programme, an adblocker or a proxy server, deactivate these and try to establish a connection again. Login problems are usually caused by these settings. Kind regards.
Well design and easy to use
We downloaded this for our holiday. I created an account and could then add our Swiss Travel Pass to it which was very convenient.
The search results are clear and detailed. You can see all the detail you need at a glance including platform numbers which is handy for the quick changes. There are also more in depth details such as stops, train configuration so you know where on the platform to stand, live tracking and also things like if you need to walk a bit you can pull up a map with directions.
It covers trains, boats, trams and buses which are all easy to use with the help of this app.
