Caltrain+ is a Caltrain schedule and trip planning app that lets you quickly and easily figure out which train to take to get you from Station A to Station B. Additionally you can view full timetables, service alerts, and a system map all from within the app.
To use Caltrain+, simply select the station you want to depart from, the station you want to arrive at, and the timetable (Weekday or Weekend), and Caltrain+ will show you a complete list of every matching train you could take along with its number, service type (i.e. Local, Limited, Express, or South County Connector), departure and arrival time, and trip duration. Optionally specify an “arrive by” time to filter the list of trains to only include those which will get you to your destination station before the specified time. You can also view the full list of scheduled stops for a particular train just by tapping on it.

Thank God for this new app!! I was a long time user of CaltrainMe before the pandemic but hadn’t even opened it since then because of working from home. With my office finally reopened and needing to commute again, I was so sad to discover that CaltrainMe was no longer working 😭 But then I came across this app, Caltrain+, and thank God I did! It’s a perfect replacement for CaltrainMe and does exactly what I need it to! Just like with CaltrainMe, I just pick my origin and destination stations and get a list of trains that I can take to get to work, and at the end of the day I can quickly switch the origin and destination stations with just one tap to figure out which train to take to get back home. Thank you so much to the developer for creating this app!! You’re a lifesaver!!
Best app for Caltrain

For years I struggled to pull up transit data. The official Cal train website always refreshed itself and constantly finding the timetable I needed was frustrating. Looking up my route via Apple maps would sometimes skip the current train if it thought I was too far from the platform. This is where Caltrain+ came in! It automatically scrolls to the next available train and makes it super easy to select my route. The only thing I wish they would add is favorite routes under the “routes” tab. This way I could easily switch between my usual routes. Regardless, I am so glad I found this app!

My new go-to when I commute. Wish it had a feature to geofence and alert me when I was approaching my destination. After a long day I’m not always alert. But that is a feature request not a ding against this amazing little app. Nice work.
Quickly fixed issue

I give it 5 stars normally because it’s really useful. But they also quickly an issue I had about notifications, which means they really earned this 5 star in my book.
- Added support for iPhone Duo
- Added an in-app tip for quickly switching the origin and destination stations
