New update wiped saved payment and does not save it, even though checbox to save is checked. No longer tells you if traveling in the same zone on the same day, a standard one-way ticket is all you need and not a return ticket. verified that is still the case on the website FAQ. Also, there is no map of train lines in the app.

Creating an account doesn't work from within the app. First time I created an account on my phone, clicked the confirmation email (I clicked it on my computer), then tried to login on my computer. Says "wrong password", so I reset my password and try to login again, this time it says "A technical error has occurred. Please try to log in again". No matter how many times I login, it still says that... What I ended up having to do was creating a second account all from my computer for it to finally work! Given I think this might be an error on the server-side or something, but this needs to be addressed ASAP. Another issue I found was that on the new purchase screen if you type too quickly in the departure text field the app will crash to a gray screen. Overall a frustrating experience and it makes me worried that the app will stop working when I need it to :(

I used to be able to purchase tickets with relative ease until about 2-3 months ago. There has been a serious of bugs that have rendered the app practically unusable and is even likely deterring passengers from using Belgian trains. Issues ranging from involuntary user log-out to an inability to search train schedules has rendered this app complete garbage. Will avoid using SNCB train at all cost until fixed.
