Trying to get in

I made an account to logged in but it never put me in and it locked me out of my account and every time I try making a new one it won’t let me and when I go back to the original one that I made it still won’t work because it says something‘s wrong even though that’s how it’s saved in my Passwords app

Bad review.

Did not allow me to register because apparently my email domain doesn’t exist.

Great and handy!

This app is great to avoid the spectrum nerds on Facebook and just get real time information from reports.

Inbound trains not working

My premium membership expired and I watched an ad to see any tracked train locomotives and I watched two ads, but it never unlocked

RAILFANS DOWNLOAD NOW!

This is so amazing! I’ve caught multiple heritage units with this app! Another railfan told me about it and I’m so glad he did!

Nice tool when watching trains

Good to know if something good is coming only thing is as of recently the app keeps crashing for whatever reason. Other than that no complaints.

Good but could be better

The app is great for knowing that units are nearby. I’ve used it several times to locate units before, and most of the time the train tracker is either accurate enough or wildly misleading.

One thing that should be added is report timestamps. You can select when the unit came through, but then people will go through all the webcams and fill up the nearby reports with useless reports from hours beforehand. It should say when the report was submitted in addition to the pre-existing timestamp.

Photos

It’s a really good app just wish I could upload a few more photos otherwise a good app

It’s great and not Facebook

This app is amazing as it tells you where special locomotives are. Recently CSX YN2 units were added which makes life so much easier in finding them. The only thing I don’t like is that a ton of foamers use the app and unfortunately many of the foamers know about these special things and ruin those videos made by true railfans. While it really depends on location, it is a problem. Another issue is sometimes there is a lack of reports of a unit. Once an SP patch made it across the US with no reports until Boone, IA. No idea how that happened.

Please fix and update the app

I can’t report the heritage unit because it kept saying this error message: Error
You've reached your limit for spots...
Please enjoy some coffee and try again in a few hours
Btw the FAQ doesn’t explain why I kept getting the error message

Great I use it all the time

Works great I love it I have 3 heritage unit reports and it’s amazing for tracking short line heritage units like the IORY and the CFE to name a few. I highly recommend!

make the reports last longer

yesterday the app said no reports found 1 minute later i seen NS 1065. 1 star.

This is the worst app ever

It just logged me out of my account fix this app

Needs dark mode

Great app but needs dark and light modes.

Great

It’s a great way to figure out if you should go railfan

Ehh

Logs me out after a month or two and when I try to log back in it says password or username doesn’t match. It’s a journey to try to log back in

I hate it

I waited 3 hours at the train track when the train is under 50 miles away, every time I go to my house it passes. Screw you

Very good App!!!!

I have liked trains for many years now a I discovered this app 2021 and it works very well and I absolutely love the ns 1072 (Illinois terminal) and I saw on this app a few months ago that the Illinois terminal was heading to where I live near and I got to see my favorite locomotive after years of wanting to see it I’ve seen it 2 times since then!

Fun app but one small problem

The app is fun and all but i hate the fact that you’re trying to report a locomotive it says “You have reached your maximum daily reports” it’d very annoying, so please fix this.

Very responsive support

I had a problem. The developer fixed it.
