Split APKs Installation Guide

Some apps are distributed as Split APKs (multiple .apk files packaged together) to optimize resources. Standard Android installers cannot open them.

1. Download Split APKs Installer (SAI) from Google Play Store.
2. Download the app archive (.apks) using the download sources listed above.
3. Open SAI, click "Install APKs", choose the downloaded archive, and click Install.

What's New

'More' has been replaced by 'MijnNS', giving you direct access to your personal MijnNS environment.
The journey results now show the departure platform alongside the travel time by default. Prefer to see the number of transfers or fare information? You can change this via the gear icon in the top right.

★☆☆☆☆

I am unable to log into the app, even though I can log in on the website. Also, the app lacks in-app registration, and registration through the website from mobile is a painful experience, and keeps switching back to Dutch. I was unable to accomplish my goal (registering a bike). It seems silly that you need to install a complicated phone app to take a bike on a train, and you can't simply add a bicycle tariff from a normal kiosk at the train station. Not tourist-friendly.

Great helpful app! The developer responded to my earlier review regarding how to change the text to English! "Please go to 'Meer', select 'Instellingen and select 'Taal'. There you can change the language setting of the app from Dutch to English." I did this and it works! You just need to press one of the menu items at the bottom to refresh the screen. I had already found it very helpful. Now I would give it 6 *.

The payment system, going via a lousy third party site, is not functional. Out of seven attempts with two different cards, five failed, one got through immediately, and one got through after green minutes, when i was already on the train, with a paper ticket. No refund of course. Now I use the app only for train schedules.

It's a very useful app, but also a painful flaw. The loading screen should not exist when opening the app, I almost was thrown off the train because of it. The wifi on the trein was broken and I had poor cell service at the time the ticket validator came through. I had purchased a ticket, it was stored on my phone, but rendered inaccessible unnecessarily because the loading screen... As they were about to escort me off the trein the loading screen fortunately cleared.
