I have used this app for many, many years but have now cancelled my subscription. The reason I cancelled my subscription is because the 'Earlier' and 'Later' buttons have been replaced by an 'Earlier' button and then a load of listed times that are confusing and unintuitive where I am constantly clicking on the wrong thing. Most people use this app when they are moving, or at a busy station when one simple thing to click on is paramount. Doesn't the developer realise all these weird times at the bottom are just unusable? Do not be fooled by the photo on the current app page, the app does not look like that now. In addition, as far as I can tell you can no longer click 'Earlier' to see delayed trains or even (which happened to me several times) the very train you are on whilst it has arrived early at the station you are searching for. Overall, the app is currently nowhere near as useful, or functional, as it used to be. Which I just don't understand. Subscription sadly cancelled.

This app has exactly the same name as an app by Agant Systems that leaves me wondering if Dorada purchased or otherwise acquired the app from Agant. It is poorer in a couple of aspects than the old app which I suspect may no longer be available. Firstly on the old app you could tap the station at which a train split and see details of where the other half was going while new app only warns you that the train will split. Secondly on the old app you could specify a via station for planning which this app does not appear to do. If you want it to be better than the old app then the National Rail app permits, in planning, specification of via / avoid / change at / don’t change at (which I found useful recently). The interface on this app is far superior to the National Rail app which is clunky and feels more responsive than it. One feature that is great is ability to select a station that train is calling at and see its departure board.

This is a fantastic app for keeping track of your most used stations and favourite journeys. It can set alerts for individual legs of the journey to let you know in real time any changes or delays that occur. Even notifies your Apple watch if you have one. Didn't think I would use the alerts as much as I have but once I got the hang of them it's great seeing where your outgoing train is sitting for the next leg of a journey as you pull into the station. A single click of a button can put every leg of the journey straight into your calendar as a set of events if desired. The overall design has been very well thought out. I've had 3 questions for the developer while getting the hang of it and these were answered clearly & quickly so has earned it's 5 stars I think.

I’m changing my review from 1 to 4 stars; as the crash that crippled the app has been swiftly fixed by the developers. Thanks guys! It’s once again a very useful and reliable app. Gives me all the information I need and I use it every day. I would give it five stars if the UI was tweaked slightly; the orange colour isn’t very appealing, given National Rail are blue I think this would be better suited. Also I don’t like the fact you have to pay a monthly subscription; the previous incarnation of this app (Train Times) had the offer to pay £5 and remove the adds. That’s all I want to do. I don’t want to pay every month when I won’t use the alerts and other extras offered by the subscription. If the developer added a “pay to remove adds only” option and made the UI slicker this would easily be the best UK train app on the market. Fingers crossed for these updates soon!

Uses the older style widget but that is because the newer style widgets don’t allow real-time updating (from developer - he is very responsive to suggestions). The widget updates automatically without fail and is very useful. If you subscribe (very reasonable at £9.99/year) the widget can work either using the nearest station or a favourite journey (ie. To work). The widget automatically switches the direction at lunchtime which is a neat feature making the widget worth its weight. When you click on a train it calls that specific train within the app so you’re straight there. Very good and well thought-out app.

Really appreciate this app & its good interface and functionality, given a certain other app is no longer supported and doesn’t fully work anymore. I also like the fact that it has a very useable Apple Watch app (unlike the National Rail watch app, which is abysmal), which shows every stop on the selected train.I’d love to see a few additional features:Being able to see all calling points for a selected train; you currently only get this once the train has departed, otherwise it only shows between your selected stations, but would be good to always see this.Following on from the above, being able to pin a selected train (with its full calling points), which would then show on the Trains screen (as well as or instead of the Recently Viewed Trains, which I wouldn’t miss).I’ve noticed when adding to calendar (with a note), you can’t cancel, and have to carry on adding it and then go into your calendar to delete it.Purely aesthetic, but option of a blue on white colour scheme instead of the red on white (and/or a dark theme).Otherwise, already great stuff!
