The "Vremena" reporter checked how it works this morning, and the first impressions are that the application is intuitive and easy to use, as well as that the functions of the application announced by the mayor, Aleksandar Šapić, work well.
As of today, a mobile application is finally available to passengers of public transportation in Belgrade, through which they can buy a ticket and receive information about the arrival of the vehicle they are waiting for.
The "Belgrade plus" application is available on Google Play Store and Apple Store. The "Vremena" reporter checked how it works this morning, and the first impressions are that the application is intuitive and easy to use, as well as that the functions of the application announced by the mayor Aleksandar Šapić they work well.
In addition to all that, the time ticket of 50 dinars really costs that much now because there is no commission of a few dinars that is paid to the operators when the ticket is bought via SMS. about which "Vreme" already wrote.
To be able to use the app, you have to register through your email, and the app immediately gives you the option to do it through Gmail.
Payment option
The app offers you two payment options. One is through a payment card, by entering your card details. There is an option if you want the app to save your data so you don't have to re-enter it the next time you make a purchase.
Another option is "E-order - amount of advance funds", that is, to pay money to your account with which you will later pay for the ticket.
Here there is an option to pay the money via payment card or if you don't want to leave data, via a payment slip, i.e. you get a QR code that you can scan, as well as payment information via a payment slip.
When you select the "buy a ticket" option, which is located at the bottom of the application, a new window opens in which you can choose whether you want to buy a seasonal, weekly, monthly or annual ticket.
After you buy it, the yellow circle with the ticket icon at the bottom of the screen turns green, and by clicking on it, you get information about the ticket you bought, i.e. the time of purchase and until it is valid.
When the card expires, the icon turns yellow again. The receipt that you bought the ticket will also be sent to your email address.
Information about the arrival of the vehicle
When you start the application, if you allow it beforehand, it will show you where you are on the map and will give you the option of the nearest stops in your vicinity. It is also possible to search by stop numbers, as was possible on the previous Kentkart application.
When you choose a stop, you get information about which lines stop there and the expected time of arrival of the public transport vehicle for each of those lines.
The "Vremena" reporter checked how this option works at two stops and it turned out to be very accurate. At the starting station of line 16 in Novi Belgrade, the app showed that the bus would leave in three minutes, and it did.
At the stop in the center of Belgrade near Dom omladine, where several lines stop, vehicles also arrived within the time indicated by the application.
Another option that can be useful to someone is that the application can also show the exact route taken by the city transport vehicle, which can be very useful in situations when there are changes in the traffic regime or if someone does not know a part of the city well enough.
