The SNCB Lab App is open to everyone.

What is SNCB Lab App?  

It is a copy of the SNCB App that allows you to discover and evaluate new features before they are (perhaps) integrated into the official app. Thanks to the SNCBBS Lab, you get the chance to try out some of our ideas in advance and give us your feedback. Your feedback will help us further develop the future of the SNCB app. 

How does it work?

SNCB-NMBS Lab works exactly like our official app, with two exceptions:

  • You cannot buy tickets through this test app.
  • You get the chance to test new and innovative features that are not yet available on the official app.

What can be tested?

  • Platform Zones: Since September 2025, at Brussel-Centraal, you can see where to stand on the platform before your train arrives, thanks to zone indicators (A to I) on the platform, also indicated under the “composition” tab.

What has already been tested?

  • "Train Composition & facilities" allows you to see the composition of the train as well as the facilities on board
  • "Don't Miss My Stop" allows you to set a notification so you don't miss your stop. 
  • "Widgets": components that you can add to the home screen of your device and will provide you with information without opening the application.
