This app was always the best for years and I depend(ed) on it for years for all of my Tokyo train travels. After the most recent "update" suddenly it doesn't work at all! It just says the app is no longer supported. It's here in the iOS App store and still looks to be supported but just no longer works on my iPhone 13 as it has for the past 2 years! Komarimasu! Tasukete kudasai! We need this app and there is no equivalent! What gives?The support team graciously replied to me explaining the situation. There was a 2 hour glitch but now everything is back to it's normal, wonderful usefulness! They replied to me to explain the very temporary glitch that I just happened to encounter.I very highly recommend this app for traveling in Japan. I have been here for 50 years and this app is by far the absolute BEST!! Thank you Japan Transit creators and support!

If you are comfortable with kanji, even if you can read or write it, but can differentiate between the station names, this app is better than others out there, including Google maps, Hyperdia’s app and website, and Navitime. You can list the in between stations, it recognizes romaji, and you can quickly reroute train scenarios if you miss the starting train or transfer or get to one earlier than expected.

We used this app to plan Shinkansen trips between cities. We used it to take the subway, train and bus in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Sapporo. It was invaluable. I felt 100% confident in planning my day and had the freedom to change plans.

With the most recent update that added an English interface to the app, the entire timetable seems off. I’ve been taking various routes for years now and the app used to show me those, now it’s saying that those same routes take 20 more minutes. It does not seem to stay up to date with delays as well either and doesn’t offer as much information as before when it was entirely in Japanese. Needs a fix badly.
