Where Does the BVG Fahrinfo App Store Tickets?
BVG Fahrinfo keeps tickets, favorites and offline timetable data in private app storage on Android and iOS, linked to your account.
Last updated
The official Berlin transport app runs under de.eos.uptrade.android.fahrinfo.berlin on Android. Tickets, saved places and route history sit in private storage. The same vendor builds several German city apps, so the package suffix matters. Local files hold cache and session while ticket rights sync through the account. Keep the login, not the files.
iOS uses the standard GUID container. Ticket validity is server checked, so a local folder copy never transfers a usable ticket. Keep the account login, not the files. Log into the same account on the new phone and pull tickets from My Tickets. Clear cache from system settings for stale timetables. Full storage clear logs out and drops downloads, while favorites return after login.

Frequently asked questions
Do my BVG tickets transfer to a new phone?
Tickets bind to account plus device. Log into the same BVG account on the new phone and re download from My Tickets. Screenshots count on buses but inspectors prefer the live ticket view.
How do I fix stale BVG timetable data?
Clear cache from system app settings. Full storage clear logs you out and drops downloaded timetables. Favorites sync with your BVG account when logged in.
