Open the app and the data is there, with no sign-up and no account. LIVE • Every tracked train that is currently delayed, in one list • Delay colour-banded: under 5 minutes, 5–9 minutes, 10 minutes or more • Service type at a glance — Os, REX, R, Ex, IC, EC, EN, SC, RJ, RGJ, LE and replacement buses • Origin and destination with departure and arrival time • The last station where the train was recorded • Search by number, name, operator or station — works without diacritics too • Sort by delay, by time or by train name • Pull down to load the latest data CONNECTIONS • Search for a connection between two stations on the day and time you choose • Direct trains and journeys with changes, with the time you have to change • The timetable ships inside the app, so search works offline • The journey: where you board and alight, and the stops in between • When online, live delays for the trains on your journey and an in-app warning when a change is at risk • Find a station without typing diacritics MAP • Live position of delayed trains on a map of Slovakia • Marker colour shows how late the train is; the arrow shows its heading • The map refreshes itself every 30 seconds • Tap a train to open its detail TRAIN DETAIL • The journey stop by stop • Scheduled and actual time at every station, with the delay at that point • The train's route on a map, with its current position • Service disruption notices and replacement bus information • The operator running the service FAVOURITES • Tap the heart to keep a train • Favourites are split into active (running now) and not active • They stay saved after you close the app • Swipe left to remove one BUILT PROPERLY • Native iPhone app, fully localised in English and Slovak • Light and dark appearance • VoiceOver support and larger text sizes • Text contrast verified against WCAG DATA The app shows publicly available operational delay data from the live feed of Železnice Slovenskej republiky (Slovak Railways). It is not an official ŽSR or ZSSK app, and the data is indicative only — please confirm with the carrier before you travel. The timetable comes from ŽSR open data (data.slovensko.sk, licence CC BY 1.0). The app is free and supported by advertising.
