### 3/5 — Could be Improved

*2026-08-08*

The app itself is actually is helpful for daily commuters however, there are also  multiple issues for instance there are so many full screen ads constantly which makes it so frustrating to check for your train , particularly when there is a time constraint . Also  whenever a train is running late or cancelled  it  is not mentioned on the app which makes it so confusing . If these issues are resolved this app is going to make lives of so many commuters easier.

### 4/5 — Search option in timetable

*2025-12-31*

There should be search option available in timetable which will allow to selectively search for certain trains or timings. It should be available in main menu where all trains are listed & also inside specific train where stations can be searched instead of long scrolling

### 4/5 — The app is informative and Automatically closing the app

*2025-04-22, version 17.10.38*

Automatically close two to three times when I need to use in ios 18.2 previously it is not happening but it is happening after update of ios

### 2/5 — Poor Development

*2025-02-18, version 17.10.36*

For apple phones have limited functionality no way to update

### 3/5 — Need to Improve

*2024-10-22, version 17.10.36*

Whenever i use to open m- indicator its laggy sometimes and scrolling not even smooth and that chat option not working whenever i do chick on that option app close automatically. And  promotion Ad is ok but positioning not current. I believe on our developer they can easily do current . It’s  for review purposes only hope its helpful

### 2/5 — iPhones technically error

*2024-06-27, version 17.10.34*

The reason was not rating it 5 will be the one drawbacks of this app is that this app doesn’t hold the feature of express in iPhone really the developer should keep that feature on this app as well just I use for local trains however still I am waiting for the express feature for iPhone I hope so the developers Sees this review and will work on it

### 3/5 — Average

*2024-06-14, version 17.10.34*

Less features compared with android version

### 3/5 — Destination station from in between running train is not diaplaying

*2024-02-15, version 17.10.30*

Destination station from in between running train is not displaying in iOS device.
Suppose, if we are searching any train and we click on any station we should expect destination trains list from that time frame.

### 2/5 — App Crash issue

*2024-01-14, version 17.10.28*

From the past week, the app has been consistently crashing, causing inconvenience to many users on iOS. This problem seems to be widespread, affecting multiple individuals. I wanted to bring this to your notice in the hope that your team can investigate and address this issue promptly.

Your immediate attention to resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated, as the app has become unreliable for daily use.

### 4/5 — Bugged

*2024-01-13, version 17.10.28*

Fix the bug . I can’t see the local train timings cause everytime I click on it the app shuts off and I tried to restart the app and restart the phone and even deleted the app and downloaded It again it’s not working. Fix this bug asap

### 1/5 — App crashed frequently on IOS

*2023-07-24*

The Mindicator app has been incredibly helpful for Mumbai commuters, providing valuable information and updates. However, recently, the app has been crashing frequently on iOS devices, which is frustrating. It was working fine for about 10-15 days, but now it’s become quite unreliable.

When it works, the app is nothing short of amazing, offering useful features and real-time information. It’s undoubtedly one of the most helpful apps for commuters in Mumbai. However, it’s essential that the developers pay attention to the frequent crashes and work on seamless integration for iOS users.

Once the app is stable and free from crashes, it will be a top-notch tool for commuters. I’m hopeful that the developers will address these issues and improve the app’s performance for iOS users, making it even more valuable and user-friendly.

### 1/5 — Worst

*2023-07-08, version 17.10.20*

Worst application!!!!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — Bring the old version back

*2023-05-13*

This app used to give us an option of destination , in the previous version , and then show us the route accordingly. But now this new version doesn’t give us an option to put our destination . This app is nomore as useful as before for new users . I request that it would be a delight to see the old version back . Thats was just simply great.

### 3/5 — No Express option for IOS…

*2023-04-30, version 17.10.18*

There is no Express option in IOS

### 2/5 — No option to choose the destination

*2023-04-03, version 17.10.15*

I don’t know what is wrong with M-indicator. I don’t get to choose my destination. Earlier I was able to do but in my iphone now I can’t. I have to choose from the given destination options only. But what if I don’t want to go to  the given destinations and have to go somewhere else. Please resolve this other there is no point to have this app in my phone as it doesn’t serve its purpose only.

### 1/5 — Serious ads issues

*2025-09-06*

The app is going from bad to worse . First of all the adds are irritating, like say for example if I search for a particular train from a station, and if I go back there’s this add - get google gemini , there’s no way to turn it off , wasting your time unnecessarily, second never ever trust or go by the whereabouts of the train , it’s ridiculous. The live train stuff doesn’t work , if your train has passed the station it will show - it’s arriving , or if it shows arriving - the train is nowhere in the sight . The developer needs to work high time on these flaws.

**Developer response:** We've now launched a completely rebuilt iOS version that brings it on par with our Android app. Please update to the latest version from the App Store and give it a try. We'd love to hear what you think of the new experience. If you face any issues, feel free to reach out to us at support@mobond.com

### 1/5 — Used to be great, now it's just frustrating

*2025-07-08*

m-Indicator was once a must-have app for every Mumbaikar, offering reliable train and transport information. Unfortunately, it's gone downhill.

Now, the app is cluttered with constant ads, frequent crashes, and unresponsive features. The option to add shortcuts doesn't work anymore, making navigation slow and annoying. What used to be a quick tool to check train timings has turned into a laggy mess filled with pop-ups.

Really disappointing to see such a helpful app become nearly unusable. Hoping the developers take feedback seriously and bring back the stability and user-friendliness it once had.

### 1/5 — App has serious issues

*2025-05-07, version 17.10.39*

The app always when started shows the blank screen starting from other section the section above it where the train charts train maps and all just vanishes always i have to delete the app and install it again and after only using 1 time when i go to use again the whole section of train charts and train maps vanishes. 
Really fed up because of this please fix this issues.

### 1/5 — You waste my ticket money

*2024-06-29, version 17.10.34*

I'm taking AC train tickets, but your miserable m-indicator app isn't able to show the proper train location. Three to four times, I've wasted my money by buying AC tickets. When I checked for the first time, it showed the train was coming or 2-3 stations behind. Based on that, we bought the ticket, but after some time, it suddenly started showing that the train had already crossed 2-3 stations ahead. It's really frustrating to waste money like this. Please work on improving it.

### 1/5 — Not able to see express timetable

*2024-03-02, version 17.10.31*

I’m not able to check express…. Only able to see for Mumbai. I stay in pune. Not helpful at all

### 1/5 — The worst app ever!!

*2024-02-23*

Never let this app deceive you; it’s worthless! When I was at lower Parel at 5:00, I saw a 5:12 AC train indicator for the central line towards Thane on this app, and this app was showing the train was already at Dadar when I reached Prabhadevi at 5:05. I had to purchase a ticket for the AC train, but when I reached Dadar at 5:08, this app was showing that the train had already crossed Dadar. So I went to catch a slow train and heard the announcement that the 5:12 AC train was yet to arrive….I ran again and purchased a ticket, but by the time I reached the platform, the train had already left the platform.

### 1/5 — Not accurate and buggy

*2024-01-14, version 17.10.28*

App crashes a lot and most times doesn’t show correct platforms it is only good to get a general idea of what trains are coming. You can’t rely on it for accuracy.

### 1/5 — App closing when clicked on trains on iOS

*2024-01-13, version 17.10.28*

The new update seems to be buggy as app closes abruptly when accessing trains’ timetable

### 1/5 — App Crashes

*2023-11-14, version 17.10.27*

If you click on Masjid Station and look at the Vashi route local schedule it breaks and crashes the app

### 1/5 — IPhone version does not work!

*2023-11-13, version 17.10.27*

Serious comment to the Developer Sachin. I am new to Mumbai, all I want to do is go from source (pick a station) to destination (pick a station. How do I know which line has what station). I care less which line - the app should tell me the lines, change over junction. I am back to Google, you have some advantages of ticket buying etc. Why not overtake Google and make money by selling premium version.

### 5/5 — Mail express timetable

*2024-04-23, version 17.10.33*

Hi Team, Please provide mail&express timetable in m-indicate for IPhone user. Please provide favourite option to iPhone user. Please provide 2 different line search to get connected train.

Favourite option not working for iPhone. mail&express timetable please provide.

### 5/5 — Easy Travel Planning Made Simple!

*2024-03-12*

Thank you for adding the A to B feature on iOS. This new addition has made planning travels much easier. The app now suggests the best routes and tells how long it will take to get from one station to another. This is incredibly helpful, especially if you're traveling to a new place.l highly recommend it to anyone who needs help getting around.

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2023-11-02*

In andriod we have option to type the source and destination as well.
I would request to provide the same option in iPhone as well.
Because any one who is new in Mumbai would not be knowing which train will stop at which station 
Also selecting the destination directly does not show the specific train 
Example
I travel from andheri to cotton green 
In iPhone when i type source as andheri
It shown csmt as destination 
Being a new commer in mumbai how will i know that the train to csmt will stop at cotton 

Please take this into consideration and provide an option in iPhone to select the intermediate station as destination as provided in andriod

### 5/5 — Minor Bugs

*2023-07-11*

I appreciate the effort for developing and keeping updating the app. I am sure the entire team must be working hard to keep app bug free and provide seamless experience to the user. I observed an app crash situation whenever I see you train between Ghatkopar and Vidyavihar for travel toward Kalyan. I am not very sure if this is issue with my phone but I did tried re-installing the app. Hope this will get resolve soon. 
 Seven Stars for the developer of this app en effort ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟✨

### 5/5 — Unreliable

*2023-06-13*

Apart from the time table of the trains, there is nothing that is this reliable about this app. And those time tables are available on every station too. Love tracking of trains is so so so bad that I’ve waited on the station for 15 mins because I missed a train by 2 minutes - it went early and the app showed it was late by 5 minutes. 🤷🏻‍♀️ This has happened like a million times since I’ve started using the app. 😪 Like fix it or don’t give us the feature.

### 5/5 — Recommendation

*2022-12-03*

Thank you m-Indicator team for the great application. I just moved to Mumbai and your app is a great help.

I have a suggestion - please add functionality which allows a user to choose current and destination station. The Delhi metro app has this and it makes it easy for someone new to Mumbai to use this application, specially when 2/3 station changes are required.

Allow user to input current and destination station. Output the routes available for user to take.
