5/5Easy
Very easy to use even when I couldn’t read the language!

Micki C13 · 6 Aug 2026
2/5Directions are almost never the best
Wife and I are in Amsterdam, so I grabbed this app and she stuck with Google Maps. Half the time you type in a place, it can’t find it. You have to go into the map, find a train or tram stop nearby, and then route to that. The problem is though, my wife found a faster route almost every single time through Google Maps and it was using a route this app didn’t even show me as a possibility. Every time the app spit out a result that was 4 changes and 30 minutes of walking, while she found a tram or bus line that was just a straight shot. Can’t buy tickets though the app either, we had to walk to Centraal and buy paper ones. No reason to use this app other than for an interactive map.

2/5Needs improvement
Glad I bought a paper (72h) ticket given some of the reviews. But just for navigation this app needs a lot of work. The “map” doesn’t even show transit lines. The actual train map is buried. So I can’t see which direction the various (tram) lines are heading and Amsterdam has a very confusing layout. It also doesn’t even show all of the tram stops on the map. Like you can see the Google maps version underlying the interface but there is no “Tram” label to click on to see which trams service that stop. Google maps does a much better job.

1/5Payment
Wanting to purchase a 2 day pass from the tram conductor I was asked to download the app to buy it there. I did, the app wants your location, to send you notifications and your email address. It interrupts “Hide My Email” so I need do it manually copy and paste my alias and move on. I find the ticket I want and when I go to pay instead of paying with Apple Pay and being done it spawns a Safari page outside the app and asks for my credit card number, and details. So much less secure and cumbersome. I’ll just go buy a ticket at the ticket office. Why even have an app?

3/5Why
For the love of all, just make it easy not confusing for travelers. Fix your machines and let the normal travelers/tourist purchase tickets like the rest of the world. Place the machines to purchase on the trans and buses. Even the ticket machines in the train station are broke and cash only.
