### 3/5 — Bug needs to be addressed

*2019-05-21*

Hello, how are you? To the developers, there is a bug in the system. For the last few days, when I input my two locations and search for results at any time of day it says no trains are available. I tried turning my phone on and off, closing the app and re-opening it, and deleting then reinstalling it. Please take a look into it when you have a chance. When your product works, it is very useful. 

Thank you

### 5/5 — So convenient and English friendly!!!
