Translink NI 4+

As much as the new app is great in its many ways, I would love it if you had the time when the next train is due instead of 17mins like that’s helpful for some people but perhaps change it so the time it’s due in shoes first but when you tap on the time it shows you the minutes? Just a suggestion I really prefer the times shown.

Also I find this app isn’t as up to date on delays or cancellations as the previous version.

If you what to know what time your train is coming tough luck, you’ve woken up and you use the app now you have to figure what 40 mins is from now as the app won’t tell you the literal time , it will however tell you the time of every train station after, so the work around is to look you the time for the station or halt prior to the one you want doh

The count down also does not refresh it’s only relative to the moment you clicked to the page so it you recheck the app, it will still say xx mins away unless you recheck from the start , and if a mate or taxi is dropping you to the halt xx mins from 08:43 isn’t helpful to them either.

The icon for the halt station that looks like a Wi-fi icon actual shows a zoomed in map it a halt and a road there’s literally nothing to define a local. The same zoomed in map could be used for any halt

In the morning the larne line terminates in Yorkgate for some of its trains instead of going one stop further to accommodate working people. If you miss or can’t make a train you have to wait 20 minutes in the morning - for example if the 7:45 train from jordanstown went to Lanyon it would be a 10 minute wait - not exactly amazing wait time for a city but a lot better than 20 - which is unacceptable for peak commute times. As the 7:45 train only goes part of the journey it is empty and the train before and after are full - I had to stand with many others!! What sense does that make? You can’t expect people to choose a poorly conceived form of public transport over driving with such terrible logic!
