SNCF Connect is the application of the SNCF (Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français / French National Railway Company) which results of the fusion of two apps : OUI.sncf and L’Assistant SNCF. The first one deal with booking train tickets (regional, high speed, or European train), while the other was to plan your door-to-door trip, import all of your bookings regardless of where you bought it, see the timetables of your favorite stations and so goes on.

SNCF Connect is the only app now that can do both of the scope of those legacy apps.

It is also the first travel commercial app in France.
