Live UK train departures that keep working when your signal doesn't — with the platform predictions other apps don't have. LiveTrains Pro runs its own real-time rail data pipeline, so boards load fast, stay current, and fall back gracefully to cached data underground or in a cutting. KNOW YOUR PLATFORM FIRST • Platform predictions before they're announced — including signalling-derived predictions at supported stations, marked so you know the source • Booked and predicted platforms clearly distinguished LIVE BOARDS THAT DON'T LIE • Real-time departures and arrivals for every UK station • Honest staleness: a cached board is badged as cached, never passed off as live • Delays shown even when the operator hasn't published a new estimate TRACK YOUR TRAIN • Pin a train and follow it as a Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island — updated by push, no need to keep the app open • Splitting trains handled properly: see where your portion goes and where it splits • Apple Watch app for departures at a glance WHEN IT ALL GOES WRONG • Rescue: when your train is cancelled, get alternative routes immediately — ticket-agnostic, no login, no booking upsell • London transport status for connecting journeys PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No accounts, no sign-up • Favourites stay on your device LiveTrains Pro is free with a small banner ad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: AirRoutine at none against LiveTrains Pro's shown. LiveTrains Pro's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
