### 2/5 — Bad interface

*2025-02-24, version 4.11*

The app gets hanged due to wrong placement of close button on advertisement. The close button appears in corner overlapping time bar on screen, making it impossible to close adv and actually see the train details. I think its only in ios app.

### 4/5 — Advertising & live train status issue

*2025-01-12, version 4.11*

Always show ad while using this app and taking too much time to find train location

### 4/5 — New feature request

*2024-10-07, version 4.11*

Can we add the no. of users against the live train status to know how many users is the data sourced from at any given point. Something like 2.1cr viewers on a hotstar website? I think this will increase reliability quotient

### 1/5 — Irritated with Ads on each step

*2024-09-01, version 4.11*

Your app is good but you really need to look into it.
Your ads are too frequent even I haven’t seen any applications having ads like this. Please adjust your ad in such a way that no one uninstall your application. It’s too critical to handle and also you don’t have provided any premium services

### 1/5 — Too many ads 👎

*2024-07-29, version 4.11*

Please consider removing ads from the iOS version.
I encounter numerous issues when trying to find trains, especially when ads cannot be skipped.
While I understand the need to generate revenue from ads, prioritizing customer service is crucial. I suggest incorporating an option to skip ads to enhance the user experience.  👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

### 1/5 — No accuracy info and too many advertisements.

*2024-07-07*

Too many advertisement as soon as you open the app. Not accurate information.

### 1/5 — Annoying one due to excess of adds

*2024-06-16, version 4.10*

This app's interface is devastating and annoying. When I try to find the current status of a train, it shows add first and then the train status. Moreover, if you'll touch any other option it would again prompt an add first and this would would last for 30 or more sec. 
Eventually its an irritating and annoying app made for add purpose not for helping the people.

### 1/5 — No proper timings of the station and wrong information

*2024-06-15, version 4.10*

This is not at all showing the proper station timing more over it has lots of advertisements that’s very irritating especially when we open it make us wait for steady 5 seconds and it says offline but it is not working when it’s offline please need to fix this bcz

### 1/5 — Ads placing not good

*2024-06-07, version 4.10*

Dear development team, definitely monetisation is required to function any company but it should not block basic feature of app. Your full page ads get stuck app even after multiple force killing and uninstall also doesn’t help every time when reopen app same problem happened again and again.

### 1/5 — Can’t exit from ad due to the UI design

*2024-06-03, version 4.10*

I use it all the time it’s good and accurate, but since the latest update after watching the ad you can’t exit from it, it doesn’t automatically redirect to app after the completion of ad. I use 13 mini and the X mark to close the comes on top right corner of my screen and it gives me so much hard time to just exit from the ad page.

### 2/5 — Good for tracking tracking info but app is filled with Ads

*2024-05-24, version 4.10*

The app can provide good information regarding train timing tracking and other things, but the ads filled in the app can be reallly frustrating. I was trying to get off an ad and get into the app but the ad was just not closing even after closing and opening the app several times, developers of the app kindly do something about this or it’s going to become difficult for us users to use the app.

### 3/5 — Ad free experience needed

*2024-04-23, version 4.9*

The app closely mirrors the original, which is impressive. However, I suggest either enabling the premium subscription option or eliminating ads entirely from the app. The constant interruptions while opening or searching within the app can be quite bothersome. Please take requests like this into consideration.

### 1/5 — About ads

*2025-03-16, version 4.11*

Respected sir /madam

I am aware of need of ads for an app but whats the need of putting an ad for every time you open app even whne it is previously opened and kept in background ok thats also fine but what every time we open from background we have to wait 5 -10 sec to continue to app is this the way do we get any interest of using an app ads are ok but not very much like this evrrytime we open from background we are seeingg ads and that too unskippable upto 5-10 sec its really frustrating

### 1/5 — Getting more ads

*2025-03-03, version 4.11*

Getting more ads and not showing correct information the giving information is totally wrong in Apple version Where is my Train is very very waste. It is better to use another app. This app is very regularly not able to use. I said it is a waste of time and waste of all things

### 1/5 — Always shows connection break up from the server

*2025-02-24, version 4.11*

This app is isn’t good it always shows connection break up from the server even you are standing on a platform with full network. This app is isn’t helpful and comes with many ads. 
Hope this review will be read by the owners of the app and update the changes so that people can get help and the app will be useful. 
Thank you

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads, Hard to Use

*2025-01-30, version 4.11*

The app provides useful train tracking information, but the excessive ads make it frustrating to use. Almost every action triggers an ad, sometimes full-screen and unskippable. It slows down the experience, especially when I need quick updates. A more balanced ad system or an ad-free option would improve the app significantly.

### 1/5 — Absolutely disgusting app

*2025-01-27, version 4.11*

It shows the wrong train location. It shows it once in one place, then within 1 minute it shows it again 10 stations later . People are being completely fooled and they are making money by doing business with additional advertisements for their own benefit.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2025-01-17, version 4.11*

This app is a valuable government initiative for real-time train tracking, but intrusive ads during critical moments disrupt the user experience, especially in emergencies. As a public service, it should prioritize accessibility by removing ads from essential features or offering an affordable ad-free option, aligning with the “Digital India” vision of seamless and citizen-friendly services.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2024-12-25, version 4.11*

This aap show some wrong information about some train. I was on big trouble due to this app because I reached station seeing the update which is given by the app. After reached, the station master told there are no such train available on that time . And once i planned my trip by seeing the update and then I like to confirm the train and I called 139 , they confirmed me there are no such train available .

### 1/5 — Advertisements are Very disturbing

*2024-12-23, version 4.11*

I know ads are important for revenue but these ads are too much disturbing that I am not able use the app properly. It is very annoying that I am watching the ad on every click in the app. 
Please place the ads on lower side of the application or Make a paid version in which ads are removed for LIFETIME.   Thanks

### 1/5 — To much Ads and other issues

*2024-12-09, version 4.11*

The app shows ads for every single search after showing all yhose banners on the screen and another mejor thing is that the app always shows train from the 1st train. It doesn't match the time and please try to add a 12Hrs format ( atleast give option to select between the time format's) .

### 1/5 — Issue with Excessive Ads

*2024-11-27, version 4.11*

I am experiencing an issue with the app where an excessive number of ads appear, interrupting the user experience. Even after watching the ads, they do not disappear until I repeatedly tap the close button. This is quite frustrating, and I would appreciate it if you could resolve this issue or provide an option to remove ads.
