Commutative Live Trains 12+

Major station Brighton (BTN) not available to pick. How many more missing from master list??

At least I can now see trains and the ability to see passing points is useful.

At least one other app does show predicted platforms which change colour when confirmed. Predicted platforms have been available in NR data for years.

Be interesting to see how things progress if app regularly updated.

How about the option to see all departures from a station without having to pick a destination? That would make App really useful.

Details for ’Nerds’ useful, but why class everybody who is interested in this as Nerds. Just drop the Nerd part! It’s stupid and could be insulting to some users.

Hi Peter, really sorry about this - Network Rail changed the format they send us the data in, and it looks like you downloaded the app RIGHT before we temporarily removed it from sale.

I hope you got your refund, if not you can do that through reportaproblem.apple.com

Regardless of your refund, if you still have the app installed please consider the new update - we’ve rewritten it (entirely, from scratch) and it should now support any direct train from every station. It has some other cool things like Live Activities and maps too, but the main thing is that it’s really stable now.

Sorry again that it was broken when you downloaded it!

In theory, this is a fab idea. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work! I searched for a route from London Waterloo to Epsom (it was on the station boards), but this app could not find this route. Update: updated to 4 stars, based on the developer's prompt response; it indicates excellent customer service and builds trust and confidence that bugs are being addressed. If it’s fixed, this would be a five-star app! If there is a wish list, I know this isn’t a route planner and works for direct trains only but one final addition that might help us non-frequent commuters (if possible) is to have an ‘ALL London stations’ option. For example, Epsom is the destination which has direct routes from a couple of London stations (Waterloo and Victoria). It would be great if the app could show these various options which would inform us in selecting the most appropriate route based on station proximity, next train, fastest route etc. Thankyou!

Update

Now five stars. My go-to app for UK train times. Developer has addressed all points from my previous review. Allows you to be one step ahead of crowds waiting by information boards, helping secure a seat before the platform gets busy.

Hi! Been having some issues with stations grouping together wrong recently. Basically, Waterloo is technically a few ‘points’ clumped together and it’s picking the wrong one.

I’m really sorry it happened, but very grateful for you mentioning it because now it can be fixed! Will get on this right away and push an update asap.

If you’re still unhappy or don’t want to wait, you could get a refund through the App Store

Love this app and the widgets are brilliant.

I had a technical issue initially with this app, but Brandon the developer was incredibly responsive and sorted it out almost immediately. 5 stars!

Hi Roobin,

Very sorry to hear this, I think it might be something specific about the trains on route your searching for

To reproduce it on my end, could you let me know which stations you’re going between? Get in touch at: hello@commutative.co.uk

Thanks so much, sorry the app isn’t working for you yet!
