About this app

VGN timetable & tickets is the mobile timetable information of the transport association Greater Nuremberg (VGN). Whether you are traveling by S-Bahn, R-Bahn, U-Bahn, tram or bus in the network area - VGN timetable & tickets is your always available companion. You can quickly and easily receive connection information, current departure times and see which platform your train is departing from. Thanks to real-time information, you are always up to date, even with short-term changes or disruptions, with push notifications in the info center if you wish. Thanks to the P+R route guidance, you can always get to your destination in the best possible way with your car. Buy selected VGN tickets quickly and conveniently - and if you like - directly from the connection information. Incidentally, in Nuremberg every fourth single ticket is now purchased via this app.

Enter a stop, an address, a point of interest for the start and end, use your current position or select a contact (optional) and you will receive all important information for the next connections. Easily share your connection with friends or save it to the calendar.

functions
• Live information with real-time data
• Door-to-door connections
• Route planning with P+R parking lots
• Display of occupancy of the P+R parking spaces
• Update trip details while driving
• Quick access to the current ticket directly from the information desk
• Departures from any stop
• Price and tariff information for each connection
• Ticket Purchase
• Detailed maps and network plans
• Up-to-date information on timetable changes
• Configurable notification of faults


You have the option of allowing the app access to your contacts in the settings in order to use the addresses stored there as the start or destination as easily as possible. When a contact is selected, only the selected address is sent to the VGN information system. Our timetable information cannot tell whether the address comes from contacts or was entered manually. Therefore, the app needs authorization for contacts, among other things.

In addition, an internet connection is required to use all information functions and to purchase a ticket. Activation of the location function is required for the automatic use of a nearby stop.

The app was running fine but last few months it started to crush a lot. Also the UI is not stable anymore. Frequently Fading color, transparency of the text makes it hard to understand if it's functional or bug or a symptom of another crush. But the app is extremely helpful and important.

Update with automated search after changig either start or end of journey did not increase usability, it made it much more annoying to search for another connection for your current journey. Doesn't show delays or good connections, because most of the times you have to expect at least 5min delay with every bus, so no route with less than 5min change time works, you always miss your next connections. My recommendation: just use the DB App.

Extremely slow and unreliable. Application crushes each time when I tap to pay. I cannot even remove or change the payment details, so I am highly concerned about apps data privacy and overal liabilty. There are ticket machines in each bigger sub station, better buy them there, still possible to pay by card.
