    Short answer

    Yes. Matkahuolto, the national service for coach travel and parcels, has a Matkat app that sells tickets for long-distance buses and trains, local transport and ferries. You can also buy tickets online or on many buses. Some bus companies sell their own tickets in their own apps.
