Information about the new app
We have a new app now. The app follow the requirement for universal design, which makes it easier for more people to use it. Here you will find out what the new app means for you as a customer.
The new app has several advantages

What does this mean for you?
- For a short period, the old FRAM app will work at the same time as the new FRAM app. On 1 November, you can no longer buy a ticket in the old app, but can use the ticket you purchased in November. However in December, everyone must switch to the new app because features in the old app will be turned off.
- You cannot transfer a ticket from one app to the other, so if you have a valid ticket in the old app, you must use it there before you can switch to the new app.
- In the app, you must expect a little extra time the first time, to create a new user.
- You will recognize the menu and we have the same tickets as before.
- You can also save your favorite places and departures as before.
- Buying a ticket for the fast boats through travel search will be available later. But you can buy the ticket through the "Tickets" menu.
- The app has been given a dark blue background on the icon and takes over the name "FRAM". And the old app with a white background on the icon has been named "FRAM (old)".
