BudapestGO Erfahrungen und Bewertung

Seit Jahren treuer Begleiter, wenn ich in Budapest bin. Liveinfo, wo und wann der nächste Bus, Straßenbahn, oder Metro kommt. Routenplaner ist sehr hilfreich, falls Fahrrad, oder Auto in der Garage bleibt.

An sich eine gute App; oftmals hat sie aber extrem lange geladen, sodass man keinen Zugriff auf gekaufte Tickets hatte. Auf der letzten Fahrt ließ sie sich gar nicht öffnen und genau dann sind wir nach der Fahrt in eine Kontrolle gekommen (Zufall?!?), wo wir weitere 60€ zahlen mussten, da sich die Tickets vorher nicht validieren ließen. Dringend an den Schalter gehen oder die nächste Bahn nehmen, da bei bereits bezahlten Tickets keine Kulanz gezeigt wird!

App ließ mich im entscheidenden Moment hängen und ich musste ein zusätzliches Ticket am Automaten ziehen. Offline Version dringend nötig

Absolute Schrott-App. Unübersichtlich, umständlich und nicht hilfreich. Selbst BudapestGO der DB ist besser.

… weil BudapestGO (und auch die HP) beständig behaupten, das Captcha würde falsch eingetragen. Es gibt aber gar kein Captcha!

I keep trying to register with many emails and all of them fail to receive the verification email. I have been checking in spam and everywhere else, but nothing

Update: Developers responded quickly and fixed email verification, now everything works perfectly well!

Terrible app. Yesterday it double charged for my tickets and today while trying to use it, the validation option did not come up even though there was an internet connection. I do not recommend!

This App is absolutely precise and does help a lot. Simply perfect! :-)

Be aware that a single one-way ticket cannot be used when using a tram and then the metro. You need to use two tickets instead. If you change, however, metro lines, a one-way ticket is enough. The ticket inspectors systematically wait at typical tourist metro stops to check if you have followed this unintuitive rule. If not, you receive a 30 Euro punishment fare without any mercy. The rules of the public transportation system appear to be installed in such a way as to trick and cash out „stupid“ tourists… Edit: Thank you for the reply! Of course, in the end it‘s the fault of the customer who did not follow the rule, I agree. However, these rules seem to be not communicated in such a way that tourists know of them without extensive checking of websites. There is something definitely wrong with the system if many tourists fall into this trap. I suspect that this is the case because inspectors systematically check tickets at metro stations of tourist hotspots. Don’t blame the customers for not following the rules when many customers fail following the rules without bad intentions. This lack of clear and salient communication also applies to the app, so I disagree that my review has nothing to do with the app. That the rules have been implemented for decades is no argument when considering tourists. Tourists do not have the chance to learn about the rules for decades because they might only visit once. For me, this whole experience with your ticket inspectors was so negative that I might never visit Budapest ever again. Your lack of minimal understanding and perspective-taking that you show in your response also does not help in this respect. Let me try to end this communication in a constructive manner: In the app you could add explanations at a prominent location under the title „common misunderstandings - check if you are a tourist or a newbie in Budapest“. If you think that’s silly, reconsider the current rules for a more inclusive transportation system…

mehr gibt's eigentlich nicht zu sagen. Die Vorgängerversion war gut. Einige Annehmlichkeiten fehlten, die scheinbar mit dem Update nachgereicht werden sollten. Absicht gut, Ausführung leider mangelhaft.

Update 2 hónappal későbbről: A jegyvásárlás fizetése még mindig több mint egy percig tart. Mi a fene tart ennyi ideig?! Az apple készülékeken van apple pay. Gyors, olcsó és egyszerű. Miért kell egy rosszul működő, saját megoldást kendácsolni a jól működő és kényelmes helyett? Az alkalmazás elég jól használható! Mind a tervezés, mind a járatok élő helyzete nagyon jól működik. Talán csak az apple watch integrálása hiányzik a közelben lévő járatok indulásáról. Viszont a fizetés időtartama botrányosan lassú! Közel egy perc mire a tranzakció lezárul. Eddigre a busz simán elmegy, ha akkor akarok gyorsan jegyet venni, amikor jön. Ez máshol jelentősen gyorsabban megy. Ezt jó lenne mielőbb javítani

Eddig teljesen jól müködött. (Iphone 12 mini, ipad pro) Egyik napról a másikra elkezdett lefagyni, illetve kilép. Ha offline inditom, semmi baj, de így meg értelmét veszti!
FEJLESZTÖK JAVÍTSÁTOK!!

App instructions are misleading and get you directly to a fine. Once you follow them and board on front door, there’s no code to scan, and ticket inspectors are already waiting for you. The most confusing public transport system in Europe that is even worse with the app.

Rendkívül tetszik a modern és letisztult új arculat 🤗

Rendkívül felhasználóbarát alkalmazás. A legjobb benne az, hogy a járművek GPS-én keresztül pontosan lehet látni, hogy melyik éppen hol közlekedik. Gratulálunk a fejlesztőknek!

Szuper aplikáció! Ha német nyelven is elérhető lenne, tökéletes lenne...

Some bus driver do not accept this app even when written that the ticket is valid. I bought a 15 day ticket. At 23:30 at kispest the driver of the bus (148) did not let me in. Was the last Bus for the day. Never again!!

Worked once and then the underlying payment processing system wasn’t communicating properly with the bank. Error message not readable or disappearing immediately. Glad they still have machines!

Why do I need to create an account for payment? Just provide PayPal or Apple Pay …

This is my second review because Apple felt the need to remove my original negative post for no given reason.

This Budapest Go app is very confusing to use and it does not allow for easy payments like Apple Pay or Paypal, rather one must register on a third party website a credit card. Then when you use the journey tab to see where to go there is no way to buy the requiered tickets. You must first switch to ticket tab and imagine which ticket or tickets you need to buy for selected journey in the other tab. once you register your credit card details on the third party website you can buy the tickets but then realize you must vaidate them by scanning non-exisiting qr-codes on the metro doors.

I travel a lot and this is worst ticket app I’ve ever seen in couple of years. You can’t use Apple Wallet, you need write your card credentials in some shady WebView instead, it “forget” these details when you try to pay next day..

Purchased my tickets, getting my money works but by validation I only get "Unknown error"

This way this is just a scam app, totally useless.
