Good for long route, not local directions
This app gave us very bad directions for local routing to get to our longer train. It sent us 45 minutes out of the way, leading to a 25€ taxi ride in order to avoid missing our train. I recommend verifying any route with another map application before embarking out.
Add obvious train numbers back in!
The new update is ok but my only request is PLEASE make the numbers of the train obvious at a glance like before! It was so useful going on the app and being able to see both the time of departure AND the number of the train straight away so that I know for sure I am getting on the right train. Otherwise it does the job.

Hi, thank you for suggestion to make the train numbers more obvious. If you have more ideas or feedback you are very welcome to share at appsupport@eurailgroup.org.
The new app doesn’t show all train options for global pass!!
NEEDS BUG FIX NOW!! This new version doesn’t have the correct train info!! The only way we know is because we’ve already bought seat reservations for a train from Lyon to Paris and when I went to double check connections my app had updated and we cannot get it to show the correct train time and route! Thank goodness my husband’s phone didn’t automatically update the app and we still have it until this bug is fixed. The seat booking part of the app still has the correct train route and time. So I cannot trust this app until the info on my new version matches my husband’s old version. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!! If you need the specific route it’s Lyon Part Dieu to Paris Gare de Lyon at 9:04 in the morning. This is super frustrating and scary as we’ve been using this app to plan travel for 5 weeks in Europe.

Dear DowellAJ, thank you for sharing your experience. Both the old and new app use the same European train database for the train time tables so this shouldn't make a difference. The timetables come from each railway carrier and are updated monthly. I will investigate and involve the French railways if needed.
Rail planner
Excellent to use and very user friendly.This app. Has been very well thought out.
Love it! But....
Only thing that could be better is if you could reserve seats on the app and have the option for real time train updates using wifi or data.
Not the best
Not quite user friendly for me. I guess it is pretty straight forward with looking at train timetable and destination, however it's hard to keep track on the history of the history of the search - perhaps saved trip plan? Or i just couldn't find it.
Reservation
Should have a directly link to reservation if the train needs.
Review
The app was awesome for planning every trip that you make with your eurail pass, it has all of the intercity routes and timetables. Just wish there was a booking section for the reservation only trains. And the terminals that the trains will leave from
Great app
Haven't been travelling yet, but so easy to use and invaluable help with my planning!
Useless App
