    Doesn’t give enough information in real time. Previous app (that was free) was SO much better.
  • Abundance of Greed

    The developer’s greed shines through in this app. First of all, it’s bloody expensive for what you get. Second, only one user can be logged in at a time. So my wife and I would both have to be WAY over charged for both of us to use this mediocre app. I miss Hyperdia. It was far superior and free. I don’t see a bright future for this greedy app.
  • Super Useful!

    I have used the app to help determine which trains to take in my travels across Japan. The information is very accurate and I have no problem calculating the fare to pay that can be especially confusing when looking at the station boards. It also allows the user to select the route based on individual preferences (time, cost, method). Useful for both intercity and urban city train travel. Can’t recommend it enough!
  • ticket booking service is a SCAM

    don't try your luck to book a ticket via the booking service in the app. they charge you ~20% for "admin fees" while it's not even an automated e-ticket. you have to wait for a HUMAN coming back to office and only available at working hours. what a joke as an "online" service in 2024. Instead, the best option is actually to buy one at the JR station.
  • Useful for finding trains, useless for booking tickets with rail pass

    Pretty much as per title. I’ve paid for the Premium version and have a Japan Rail Pass, but it still wants to charge me for tickets when I go to book them. I have chosen routes that are included free with the rail pass.
  • Not as useful as expected

    It wasn’t user friendly. I ended up using Google maps the whole trip.

    Not recommended difficult to read
  • Less useful than the website

    By HRReviewNStuf
    The website is easier to use. It's so much harder to plainly get the information I want (train timetables) from the app compared to the website. Deleted the app, just using the website.
  • Blank Screen

    Doesn’t work. Blank screen. IPhone 8 with iOS 16.7.8 (newest usable at this time). Requests location information, then the login screen flashes up. Almost immediately the screen turns white and nothing will alter that.
