Features & Capabilities

RuterBillett requests access permission to the following functions:

Recent reviews
Minimal and yet poor UX - all of the ticket options are grayed out while everything else is already selected including zones, stops, travellers and still is impossible to buy a ticket with no errors nor explanations being shown.

Definitely the most annoying app on my phone: Every time I switch from WiFi to cellular, the app stops showing results and I need to force-quit it. Every time I click "back" on a travel suggestion, the app forgets everything and I need to input my search parameters again.
