Ryanair - ticket printing

My eldest teen is going to Italy with a friend later this week and travelling with Ryanair. This is the first time I have used this company and I cannot for the life of me find any 'tickets' to print off. I've printed off the emailed booking/payment confirmation and the boarding passes for them both. Can anyone help - is this all we need?. The 'help' section of Ryanair gives no info on tickets and their live chat has been unable each time I have been on their site.

    The boarding passes are the tickets

    Both the tickets and boarding passes are contained in the electronic booking confirmation. You don't need to print anything off at all.

    You clearly have no clue about Ryanair. With Ryanair you must print your own boarding passes, but you don't need anything else.

    Most other airlines all you need is the booking reference, nothing else.

    @obviously the best, I have flown many times with RyanAir, most recently about 3 months ago from EMA to Carcassonne, and can assure you that as with at least two earlier occasions I have used the RyanAir app on my iPhone to hold my electronic tickets and boarding cards. You do not need to print out boarding cards for RyanAir flights so long as you have the app on a mobile device.
    Your rude reply is unfortunately becoming symptomatic of the attitude of many on here to other users on these forums like me who are simply trying to pass on our travel experience to someone who asked for it.

    As they said, you can get mobile boarding passes on the Ryanair app for most routes (last time I looked some were excluded - I don't know if they still are). No paper required.

    You don't even need the booking reference for most airlines - they just scan your passport and find it via that. So much easier (I can't recall ever actually being asked for a reference, the just automatically take the passport).
