A service also available on some Samsung smartphones
Following the latest update of the experimental Navigo LAB application, it is now possible for users of compatible Samsung smartphones** to test the service regardless of their telephone operator. This new feature is a further step in the continuation of the experimentation with a view to the generalized opening of a stabilized service to the general public.
As a reminder, the Navigo LAB application, set up by Île-de-France Mobilités in partnership with the SNCF, RATP and Optile, is accessible from the Google Play Store for a limited number of downloads. It is therefore available to customers with:
– or an Android smartphone with an Orange or Sosh NFC chip*
– or an eligible Samsung smartphone (**), regardless of the associated telephone operator
Following this experiment, the service will be enriched and available directly in the Vianavigo application. Then in a 2nd phase, in the RATP, SNCF and Transdev applications. The exact dates of these outings will be sent by the Île-de-France Mobilités teams.

A list that is likely to evolve with new smartphone releases.
