Important information:
From 14. 11. 2024, support for older generations of the ČítačkaTB application with version 1.x and 2.x will be terminated. Due to the fact that these older versions of the ČítačkaTB application work without an Internet connection to the bank, the application itself will continue to function even after this deadline, but the generated codes will no longer be valid.

Application ČítačkaTB is currently available for devices with operating systems from Android 6, iOS 14 and EMUI 4.

Frequently asked questions
A simple, yet strong password should contain a combination of upper and lower case letters, at least one number and possibly other symbols. A simple method to generate such a password is, for example, to use your surname, enter some letters in uppercase and add numbers or other symbols. Another method, for example, is to use first letters of a phrase, sentence or proverb which you remember, e.g. “Password to my reader”, i.e. “Ptmr” and add numbers or other signs to it.
