Train
can be late or on time, journey can be easy or complex. Sometime you know where
here to go, some time you do not know. Voyage-SNCF.com new features of mobile
app makes the train journey perfected. It shares travel information in real
life, and takes all customers’ specific needs into consideration and make it
into practical.
The
E-ticket function is very convenient for the smart phone users. You do not
worry about if you have taken the ticket or not. What you only need to do is
take your phone with you. In some degree it is a way of protecting environment,
because it saves the material of paper which made of trees.
For the
new feature of sharing Facebook, the SNCF might notice the importance of social
website, and realize mobile users tend to visit Facebook to communicate with
their friends and families. This new feature offers a platform for the travelers
to share their experience. As we know, friends’ recommendation is more persuasive
than advertisement.
According
to the alert calendar, it can remind the user time the travel schedule as some
people would forget the detail time of the journey, and this app is very
helpful for this kind of people. This function can make you know exactly the
time about the travel.
The favorites
feature is similar to the computer function of ‘favorites’. It can collect and
keep the record of the trip which you like to click.
In
terms to the good deals, we think it fits for the price sensitive client, but
if you have an opportunity to buy a cheaper ticket than others, why not? So
this feature will be welcomed by the consumers.
It
seems that ‘your reservations’ just likes the package for you bookings which have
all your detail of ticket.
The
SNCF director uses geolocation technology to give you directions to your
nearest station. This app has radio to broadcast regional service information.
What
makes we like this app is that it can be applied in all kind of smart phones, not
only exists in App Store, but Blackberry App World, Android market and Windows
phone. What is more，this sound app is free. We
believe this modified app will attract more clients for SNCF as it really convenient
and useful.
