Overview
- Viral posts claimed the UTS mobile app would be discontinued on March 1, 2026, but reporters say no Railway Board directive confirms this.
- UTS has stopped taking new season-pass bookings, yet existing monthly, quarterly, and annual passes remain valid on the registered device until expiry.
- The UTS app now includes a Transfer Ticket option that moves active season tickets to RailOne and carries over wallet balances.
- RailOne, launched in July 2025 as a unified rail services app, is already available for new unreserved bookings along with enquiries and other features.
- News outlets advise commuters to ignore the viral notice and wait for an official announcement from Indian Railways before making changes.
