The app is extremely slow, then redirects to the website for most things, but then I MUST have the app to load E-tickets bought on the website, otherwise NS doesn't let me load them. The only positive thing I can say is that the app accurately represents the state of NS in general, with a lot of delays and too expensive for the quality of the service provided.

it is a very intersting app for me recentlyvisited Amsterdam. Firstly, the price is more expensive than I use debit card in 23%. Secondly, I bought tickets inside the app as a guest, but it was really annoying that no tickets popped up and costed me £52. Although I appealled this with bank but no invoice provided by NS as a guest, so I was rejected by the bank. I do not recommend visitors use this app.

I found the NS app to be excellent for looking up train times and buying tickets during a week's stay in the Netherlands. Because I was travelling with a family one great ticket you can buy in the app but not at the stations is a group ticket, only 34 euros for a one-way journey off-peak for up to three people. Yes, 34 euros total, not per person! A little more if there are more people in your group, up to 7 people. Note, this app can only be used for trains, not buses, trams and the metro.
