Features & Capabilities

In the UL app, you can search for your trip quickly and easily and buy tickets for our buses and trains.

Search travel: • Quickly search for your trip from your current position or by choosing where and when you want to travel. • The search results show various travel options and possible walking distances to the stops as well as a map that makes it easier to find the right one. • Save your most frequent trips as favorites. Use the heart in the search results to favorite a trip. • Keep an eye on the bus and see where it is directly on the map.

Buy ticket: • Buy a 75-minutes, 24- or 72-hour ticket in just a few seconds. • Pay easily with Swish, credit card (Visa or MasterCard) or travel funds. • If a ticket reader is on board, tap the phone with the ticket towards it, otherwise you will show the ticket to the bus driver or train host.

Traffic disruptions: • Any traffic disruptions or delays are displayed along with your search result.

You need an internet connection to be able to buy tickets and apply for travel. The app also needs to have access to the mobile's location function to be able to suggest travel options from your current location.

See you on board!

User Reviews

Multiple reviews point to a country-restriction barrier: signup requires a Swedish phone number, SMS verification often doesn’t reach US numbers, and there’s no email backup. Combined with the app’s rejection of foreign cards and occasional setup crashes, the app becomes unusable for international visitors. These recurring issues dominate user feedback.
Pros
Cons
  • Account signup is blocked by country-specific verification (requires a Swedish phone number)
  • Verification codes/SMS do not reach users with US numbers, hindering international signups
  • No backup verification method (e.g., email) leaves international users with no alternative to verify the account
  • Foreign payment methods (credit cards) are not accepted, making purchases impossible for many foreigners
  • App reliability issues during setup (the app can crash, buttons may be unresponsive, or refuse to start)

I think y’all are too harsh on this app. Granted you must have a Swedish account to buy a ticket but I still found it very useful. I went to the UL bus terminal at the central station and bought a week long pass. Used the app to check routes and times each I needed to go somewhere. It was perfect. Times and routes were accurate. I loved the in-app map option to show you exactly where you are and where to go for your next bus. Don’t sell this app short without giving it a try. One must utilize any tool in a way to accomplish their goals and not just whine about how imperfect it is. Perhaps the real issue is outside the phone.

You need a Swedish phone number to buy any ticket

I couldn’t set up an account, because I never received a text message. If an email confirmation would work, that would be fine, but there was no backup method to make an account. The driver said he was unable to issue a 72-hour ticket. It seemed promising but didn’t work at all.
