Any worthy national transport company must have a decent mobile application. And France couldn't be the exception, and its Société nationale des chemins de fer français, in other words, SNCF, has its own great official app.

This software for Android that has been translated into English, Spanish, and German, apart from obviously being available in French, is extremely useful if we're going to travel to France and use its huge public transport network. Ideal to travel France from North to South or even just to visit Paris.

A useful tool to use the French public transport for both long and short distances.

Once you download the APK, you'll soon see that it comes along with a simple interface, as usual in this kind of application, with a series of sections from where we can manage all our tickets and journeys.
