Prague Metro Ticket Question

Hi everyone,

My family and I are traveling to Prague later this year. I have been reading about the metro system and wanted to confirm some things to make sure I understand properly:
1) My children (ages 8 and 12) do not need to tickets to ride mass transit within Prague as long as we have appropriate identification for them
2) My wife and I can use the PID Litacka app to purchase our tickets, which will be valid one minute after purchase
3) My ticket will allow me to ride all on subways, trams, trolleys, and busses within Prague, and maybe the funicular

Is there anything special I need to know about the transit system?

I thank all of you in advance for your responses and valuable input!!!

You need to activate the ticket yourself 1 min prior to boarding.

1 &3 day pass includes funicular.. otherwise, a single ride is 90k via the app. New rate is 100k. ( Not the standard rate for all other modes).

You can use the regional.train as well within the central done. For ex. the train station to Slavia stadium is included.

Use the PID search function if you are going beyond Prague proper.. for ex to Karlstejn or Kutna Hora....you'll get a 2nd QR code for outside the zone. Kids need to pay for beyond Prague. It seems a little cheaper than the train company app.
