Best Free Travel Apps for Denmark
The Best Travel Apps for Copenhagen in 2025
Here are some of the most useful apps to make your stay in Copenhagen smooth and stress-free. Most of them require internet access, so it’s a good idea to download and check them while you have Wi-Fi at your Danhostel or a café.
DOT Tickets / Rejsebillet
If you are travelling by bus, metro or train in Copenhagen and the rest of Zealand, the DOT Tickets app has long been the go-to choice. In 2025, however, the app is being replaced by Rejsebillet, which gathers all tickets and passes in one place. Both apps allow you to buy tickets, check zones and get travel information. Use them to plan your journey and avoid the hassle of paper tickets.
Rejsekort App
For those travelling frequently around Copenhagen or further across Denmark, the Rejsekort app is essential. It lets you check in and out on buses, trains, metro and light rail directly from your phone, without needing the physical card. The app is easy to use and gives you discounts outside peak hours, which makes it a great choice for budget-conscious travellers.
DSB App
If you plan to travel beyond Copenhagen by train, the DSB app is the best option. It allows you to buy tickets, find departures, and check real-time traffic updates. You can also buy discounted “Orange” tickets if you book early. Whether you are heading for a day trip to Roskilde or exploring further parts of Denmark, the DSB app keeps everything in one place.
The Copenhagen App
This is the official app from Visit Copenhagen and your digital guide to the city. It offers curated recommendations for attractions, restaurants and cultural events based on your interests. With an interactive map, you can save your favourite spots and plan your days with ease. If you want to discover both the highlights and hidden gems, this app is a great companion.
Copenhagen Travel Guide
If you prefer to have everything in one offline-friendly app, the Copenhagen Travel Guide by Etips is a good option. It offers sightseeing tips, daily itineraries and basic transport information. The app is useful if you want quick inspiration without having to switch between multiple platforms.
Apps for Attractions and Sightseeing
If you plan to explore Copenhagen’s many attractions, a few apps can make your experience even easier. The Copenhagen Card City Guide app is the official companion to the popular sightseeing card, giving you access to more than 80 attractions, museums and tours, often with public transport included. The app provides maps, opening hours and insider tips, so you can plan your visits in advance. Another useful option is Tiqets, which lets you buy tickets to museums and cultural sites directly from your phone and use digital entry passes to skip the lines. Both apps help you make the most of your time in the city without the stress of paper tickets or last-minute planning.
Other Handy Apps
Besides transport and travel guides, a few everyday apps make life in Copenhagen easier. MobilePay is widely used for payments in shops and cafés, while Too Good To Go helps you save money by buying surplus food at a discount. For maps and directions, Google Maps and Apple Maps remain reliable choices, and weather apps like Yr or DMI are essential for Denmark’s unpredictable weather.
