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).

Ratings and Reviews
Amazing app, pricing is tricky
This app is incredibly useful if you are new to Swiss public transport!
My only negative feedback is that the prices shown in the app default to assuming you have a 1/2 off travel pass. I didn’t realize this so I calculated the cost of my trip based on the first prices that were displayed. Which unfortunately incentivized me to not buy any travel discount. All my math was based on the discounted rates and I ended up spending significantly more than I would have if I bought a 1/2 off travel pass.
Also look into other options like the day pass (which you need to buy in advanced)
Developer Response ,
Hi there. Thank you very much for the praise and the positive review. I am pleased that you like SBB Mobile. By default, we display departure prices, which always include the Half-Fare travelcard discount or even a supersaver ticket. You can see the actual price by entering the relevant details in the ticket options in the purchase flow. I wish you continued good travel with our app. Kind regards.
The best transportation app I have used
This official Swiss public transportation application has everything one wants and more, but in a very simple and easy to figure out user interface. First of all, you may create an account and enter your credit card info so that you don’t have to worry about buying tickets.
You can search for departure and arrival destinations by date and time and get a ton of options for train connections with timetables and platform numbers so that you will not have to worry about anything. You can also drag and drop your favorite destinations and buy tickets in advance or while you are onboard the train.
The greatest feature though is called Easy ride. You don’t have to buy a ticket. You just swipe to hop on and swipe when you hop off. Once you have reached your final destination, regardless of the number of trains or buses you have changed, the app calculates the lowest fair and charges your credit card directly. You can view past trips, repeat routes, set a home location and get the best options to get there, etc.

Excellent App
I have had this app for a while, but it proved it's value this past weekend. I was stuck out of the country during the European flight stoppage due to the volcanic ash and was able to use this app to help me get back home. Not only was I able to see what my train options were, but it also provided me with real time updates on the status of the train.
This came in very handy during the last leg of the journey when the conductor kept making announcements in French that I did not understand. I checked the app and by checking the details of my train schedule I found out what was going on - the train was so delayed that it was going to be end its route as soon as we arrived in Basel, Switzerland instead of completing the journey to Zurich. The app even had the information of the train that I was supposed to take to finish the journey.
This app is a must for anyone living in or planning to visit Switzerland.
