Launch the search; several custom-made routes will appear on the screen. The "Options" menu will allow you to choose which type of itinerary you wish to see first (fastest, with the shortest walking distance or with the fewest number of connections).
You can choose the transportation means that suit you best (metro, tram, bus or train) at any time by tapping the "Options" menu (below the destination field). The other public transportation operators in Brussels have also been integrated in the STIB-MIVB app.

Can I use the "MyBOOTIK" account I created on the website stib.be to connect to the mobile app?
Yes, you can connect to the mobile app using the same email address and password as on our website stib.be. All information already available on your MyBOOTIK account will then be readily available in the app.
How do I manage my MOBIB card(s)?
Go to the "My MOBIB" section and add a personal or Basic MOBIB card.
This will allow you to look up your personal data linked to your card, edit them and also receive a notification when your season ticket is about to expire.

I am trying to add my MOBIB card to my account, but I am getting an error message saying that my card is already linked to an account. What should I do?
You card has probably already been linked to an account on our website. There are two possibilities:
- You can log into your STIB-MIVB app using your existing web account (MyBOOTIK/stib.be).
- You can remove the MOBIB card you wish to add to your mobile app account from your MyBOOTIK account. In order to do so, go to stib.be, log in with the account your card is linked to and remove the card from the account.
In case you do not remember the account your MOBIB card is linked to, you can request the connection to be undone on our website stib.be.

The website will offer you to send a notification to the account your card is linked to, in order to undo the connection. Once this is done, you can add your MOBIB card on the mobile app.
