Live Departures vs BorderClock

You're standing at the stop and you want to know one thing: when does the next train leave? Live Departures shows exactly that. Tap a stop, see the departures. No sign-up, no ads, no ticket shop, no detours. And on the way you stay informed: delays and platform changes until you arrive. SWITZERLAND AND GERMANY IN ONE APP Most apps cover one country. This one covers both. A single tap in the menu switches between Switzerland and Germany — each with its own favourites. Across the border, too: for trains from Switzerland to Germany you see the real destination and all stops up to it. YOUR STOPS, RIGHT AT THE TOP The app remembers the stops you use, and the most recently used comes first. Pin the important ones (swipe right, up to 5): they stay at the very top and are never pushed out. Up to 12 places per country, nothing else to create or manage. WHAT YOU SEE • Line, destination and departure time in real time • Delays (!) and cancellations (X) at a glance • Track, bay or pier — depending on the mode of transport • Green dot: real-time data for this trip • Every stop in real time — tap any trip (train, S-Bahn, tram, bus), with delay, cancellation and platform change per stop • Refreshes every 60 seconds FOLLOW TRIP Follow a trip in the stop list and mark where you get off: a bar at the bottom shows arrival, platform and delay, wherever you are in the app. It updates while the app is open and closes by itself after arrival. NEARBY New city? The arrow icon finds the stops around you. THE WAY YOU LIKE IT German or English. Orange or white accent. Times as a countdown (3') or as the clock (14:32). Set once, kept for good. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING No account, no analytics, no ads. Favourites, settings and a followed trip stay on your device. DATA SOURCES Switzerland: transport.opendata.ch — every Swiss operator Germany: Transitous, a community project with the timetable data of the transport operators Both public and free. Good to know: Live Departures shows departures, not A-to-B journey planning. Live data needs an internet connection.

BorderClock keeps your travel history, passport context and visa-day planning together in one private place. SEE YOUR YEAR AT A GLANCE View the countries you visited and the number of days spent outside your home country. Every calendar date is counted once in the overall total, even when a border-transition date appears in two country stays. Switch between the last 365 days, the last 180 days, this year, all time or your own date range. CHECK VISA-DAY ALLOWANCES Choose a destination to see the policy for the passport you are using. BorderClock considers recorded trips, rolling stay windows such as the Schengen 90-in-180-day rule, passport validity and compatible visas, residence permits, permanent residence, ETA, ESTA or other authorisations you save. PLAN AND CORRECT TRIPS Add previous and future journeys, edit dates, delete incorrect entries, and merge nearby photo-created stays that belong to one trip. BUILD HISTORY FROM PHOTOS With your permission, BorderClock can scan capture dates and saved GPS metadata across your iPhone photo library to suggest location history. Processing happens on your device. Photo files are not copied or uploaded, and manual trip entry remains available without photo access. YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU No BorderClock account is required. The iOS app stores travel data locally, includes backup and restore, and contains no advertising or third-party tracking SDKs. Visa and entry rules depend on individual circumstances and can change. BorderClock is a planning aid, not legal advice or a guarantee of admission. Always check the linked official government source or contact the relevant immigration authority before travel.
