Ratings and Reviews
Good app
Good app that would be even better if the times matched the platform, bigger display boards and the rare (if any) announcements in the stations. It would also be helpful if it should the calling stations
Poor app keeps crashing, live views do not work either

Deeply disappointing
After many months of supposedly consulting, listening and improving... and after all the delays and hype... what a crushing disappointment this is.
It is STILL incapable of providing a simple timetable (to look-up, say, when to collect someone who took the 18:50 from Marylebone, or to check tomorrow morning’s train times... without pretending that I want to buy a ticket). Chiltern could have saved hundreds of travellers the need to stuff their pockets with paper timetables every season and what they saved on pointless print would have paid for one on the app. Most regular travellers either have a season ticket, or buy their ticket at the station, so why is the app oriented primarily to sell tickets?
This is an insult to regular Chiltern users—many of whom are paying a premium to travel on Chiltern Railways. It has even poorer functionality than the old one and a good deal less than ‘thetrainline’ (which can create a virtual timetable when needed).
PS: to add insult to injury, the app will not let you log-in using your existing details unless you happened to have used a ‘special character’ in your previous password!
