Locations need to update

The locations on the ‘from’ should automatically update at each stop … this would be helpful to a lot of people since missed trains are common during rush hour

Response from developer

モバイル通信過多

1番気に入っているアプリで、長く愛用しています。

最近iPhone17に機種変更してから、モバイル通信量が大幅に増えました。詳細を確認すると、このアプリの通信量が突出して多くなっています。

位置情報の正確性をオフにしたり(本来はオンで使いたいです)、履歴保存をオフにするなど試しましたが、現時点では大きな改善が見られません。

よく利用しているGoogleマップと比較しても、通信量が倍近くになっている状況です。

この問題が改善されない場合、継続利用が難しいと感じています。何か対処方法があれば教えていただきたいです。

追記

お返事頂きたいと思いますが、特にアドバイス、ご助言は無いということでしょうか。

それから、アプリを立ち上げるときに必ずといっていいほど固まります。アプリが落ちることもあります。スマホの問題かと思いましたが、この症状はこちらのアプリだけです。

iPhone17に対応していないなら、早急に改善をお願いいたします。
改善が難しいのであれば、別アプリに変えますので、その旨お知らせください。

いつもご利用いただきありがとうございます。 乗換案内お客さまサポートです。 お問い合わせをいただきました通信過多の件について、ご不便をおかけし申し訳ございません。 お客さまからお伝えいただいた内容から推測するに、広告の通信量が影響しているのではないかと存じます。 広告配信につきましては、お客さまへサービスを継続して提供するために必要となっております。 もしよろしければ、有料プランをご利用いただけますと広告表示がなくなりますので、ご検討くださいますようお願い申し上げます。 その他ご不明な点等がございましたら、アプリ内「メニュー」→「FAQ」→「乗換案内のサービスについて」→「問合せしたい場合」よりお問合せくださいませ。 どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

Getting “Error” message

I live in Japan, and I’ve been using this app for a long time with no issues at all. But recently, I’ve been getting “Route error” messages on certain usual routes, and only getting local train options on others, even though I recently upgraded to Premium (hoping that that was the issue) and even though I’ve set my route options to “prefer direct train”. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the app, but the issue still persists. Any suggestions from the app users or creators?


UPDATE: After contacting the app creators, they quickly replied and figured out the glitch. They have fixed the issue and it works as normal now. Very good and prompt customer service! I’ve changed my rating to 5 stars. Thank you to the customer service team for quickly finding the glitch and fixing the app.

Don’t do me any favours

The app is generally accurate but insists on giving unwanted information. If I enter JR Shuntokumichi as a departure or destination it always provides the timetable for Kintetsu Shuntokumichi first. If I want Kintetsu I’ll ask for it.

Response from developer

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. This is Norikae Annai Customer Support. Regarding the display of unnecessary information, we would appreciate it if you could allow us to investigate this matter in detail. If you are able to provide further details, please submit them via the app by selecting: Menu → FAQ → Experiencing an Issue → Route Search → Incorrect Search Results When contacting us, please include the following information: Departure location (Via point, if applicable) Arrival location Search date and time A screenshot of the route search results Thank you very much for your cooperation and understanding.
