User Reviews

Overall, SBB Preview is praised for providing useful, accurate travel information and a generally reliable, personalized experience across languages. However, multiple reviews flag recurring usability and reliability issues: login problems where users can’t stay signed in or don’t receive codes, intrusive privacy/ad banners and policy confusion, and geolocation problems such as slow location fetches and location-missing notices in timetables. Some also note missing features compared with the standard app. The app remains helpful for planning and travel, but these recurring issues affect core usability and should be addressed to improve user satisfaction.
Pros
  • Useful, accurate travel information and easy to use.
  • Generally reliable and useful for frequent travelers.
  • Personalized experience and language support improvements.
Cons
  • Login/sign-in issues: cannot stay logged in or receive login codes.
  • Intrusive privacy/privacy banners and ads; cookie popups and policy confusion.
  • Location/geolocation problems: slow location fetch and location-missing notices in timetables.

The new requirement for Bluetooth to be turned on makes the app unusable, because it burns through my phone's battery. It's unsustainable. Before the requirement for bluetooth was added it was a good app.

right now when you activate myride the qr code crashes and you cannot show the ticket with myride. Even worse they will then send you a ticket and ask you to pay a fine even you did nothing wrong. You will need to discuss at counter with that good luck.... Update: they cancelled my fine but the app still cannot open the qr code and that's problematic. Tried uninstall and reinstall and it still doesn't work re update: now it works. Thanks
