Ratings and Reviews
Awful
I usually never make reviews but this new update deserves it.
The app wasn’t updated for years and now it looks terrible and doesn’t have all of the features that it used to nor is it as easy and convenient to read.
When using the journey planner, each train service now takes up the entire page so you have to scroll through effectively 5 pages of trains to see what is available. Previously, you could do your search and easily see the first 5 trains on one page so that at a glance, you could figure out which train would be best for your trip.
It also doesn’t allow for easy viewing of the platforms a train will be on which makes it difficult to plan journies and my entrance to the stations ahead of time when rushing to work each day.
Another gripe is that it doesn’t save the last destination that you’ve inputted into the journey planner which is annoying when you usually travel to the same place each day.
Really wish I could revert to the previous version as this new one is a pain to use!!
Please revert, the previous version was much more easy to read and navigate.
National Rail Enquiries App update
I prefer the old version. At least that app showed when services that were cancelled. This morning the train I usually catch was just not shown on the app as if it is in denial! I was left guessing whether the train was running or had been cancelled. It was the later! This app did not save me the journey to the departing station. It is an obvious change to prevent delay repay requests! I would give it zero stars if I could. Okay for general requests, not so useful when you are trying to work out if Northern Railway is operating the service or not!
Upgraded App
I had to upgrade the app as a station I wanted was missing.
I’m stunned that the new interface looks more like something on a web browser.
I can only see one and a bit live trains on my screen at a time and there appears to be no option to return to on train per line to fit more in. I’ve always been reassured that I can easily manage train changes at Clapham junction but no more. Planning my journeys with multiple changes with often delayed trains just got a lot more complicated
