## What is Darto?

Darto is a smart, simple & beautiful app for Dublin train commuters. You can check the real-time train schedule for the Dublin commuter area in a couple of taps.

# Supported Areas
Darto supports Dublin commuter area and some stations outside it. You can check the schedules for the following stations: 
- between Dundalk and Enniscorthy (South-North direction)
- all the way up to Salling (South-West)
- up to Kilcock (West).

#Unique app features

* Smart station selection
You can set your favourite morning and evening stations and directions in Darto. Every time you open Darto - it will display your preferred station, so you don’t have to scroll and choose again and again. 

* Smart alerts
You can set an alarm for a specific train in Darto. It will alert you when it's time to leave home (or pub?) to catch your ride.

* Apple Watch app
On the run? Can’t find your phone in your bag? Not a problem. See the train schedule on your wrist. 

* Location-based
If you are too far from your regular commute station, Darto will smartly detect the station closest to your location and show you the schedule for it.

* Ask Siri
Simply ask Siri for your favourite station live schedule. You don't even need to touch your phone. Ask your iPhone, Apple Watch, AirPods or even HomePod!

* Simple & beautiful
Never lose time searching through the app settings - Darto is not only designed to delight your eye but is also very intuitive.

If you only use DART, you can hide commuter stations and use the usual North->South station sorting.

We love feedback! Thank you! :)

### 5/5 — Best app for DART!

*2020-12-14*

Thank you!

### 1/5 — Not user friendly for tourists

*2020-02-22*

There is no overview map to see where the train stops within Dublin and the surrounding cities. If you don’t know the  station locations there is no way for you to know what station you need. Other apps in the UK provide a map feature so you have a view of where the stations are actually located in the city

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review. 
As the app title says - it is designed for commuters. Dublin has a very few train lines and vast majority of users won't benefit from map. Our app values simplicity, speed and nice UX over additional feature. I would suggest using another app if you need to learn train station names and locations. 
Cheers!

### 5/5 — Wow! Love this stunning interface

*2019-04-14*

It’s just exactly what I needed with a DART app. It Looks for the closest station, you tap north or south and see the next 4 trains. Love it!

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot! You can also install a widget and just swipe from home screen to check trains schedule.
