Comparing the two transit apps to help you pick the right one for Austria.
| ÖBB | Wiener Linien | |
|---|---|---|
| Description | Austria's official national rail app for booking train tickets, checking timetables, and storing discount cards. Covers domestic and international routes. | Official app for Vienna's public transport covering U-Bahn, trams, and buses with real-time departures and mobile tickets. |
| Essential? | Yes | Yes |
| Pro Tip | Buy tickets in advance for heavily discounted Sparschiene fares. Prices rise significantly closer to departure. | A 24-, 48-, or 72-hour Vienna City card purchased in-app gives unlimited rides and is far cheaper than single tickets. |
