Japan Transit Planner App Reviews

awesome pussum

Worked great for us while navigating through Japan. Great App!

Outstanding app. Real time data. Makes navigating the amazing subway system very very easy. Absolutely must have.

母も使っており、大変便利です。

乗り換え案内がとにかく分かりやすい！ 旅行の時はとにかく重宝してますね(´∀｀*) 最安値の乗り換えや早く辿り着く方法など色々なプランで表示してくれるので、助かっております（笑）

FYI "Japan Transit" is a similar app by Jorudan that is in English. It offers multiple ways to go somewhere and saves the last 20 searches. All for a couple bucks. Not a Subscription. I keep it on my home page. Very reliable. Advice from a long-time happy user.

My go-to app for transportation schedules and routes.

Just got back from Japan and used this all the time. Combined with a SUICA card, this app greatly simplifies getting around in Japan via train. It's a lot easier than having to look stations up on the spaghetti noodle maps! Though you can type in the train station name in romaji, you need to be able to read Japanese to some extent to understand the results.

If you are comfortable with kanji, even if you can read or write it, but can differentiate between the station names, this app is better than others out there, including Google maps, Hyperdia’s app and website, and Navitime. You can list the in between stations, it recognizes romaji, and you can quickly reroute train scenarios if you miss the starting train or transfer or get to one earlier than expected.

So easy to use, and very useful as it has all the diagrams and tax fare comparison.

Hello. I appreciate you adding English to use in the app, but I’d like to change it back to Japanese. However, when I open Settings there are no language settings for me to change. Could you fix that as soon as possible please?

Added English support which is actually very nice, but took away the most useful feature (一本前、一本後). Changed it back to Japanese and the feature is there, so I’ll continue to use in Japanese.

With the most recent update that added an English interface to the app, the entire timetable seems off. I’ve been taking various routes for years now and the app used to show me those, now it’s saying that those same routes take 20 more minutes. It does not seem to stay up to date with delays as well either and doesn’t offer as much information as before when it was entirely in Japanese. Needs a fix badly.

We used this app to plan Shinkansen trips between cities. We used it to take the subway, train and bus in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Sapporo. It was invaluable. I felt 100% confident in planning my day and had the freedom to change plans.

The app has significantly slowed down in performance since the last update. It more often than not times out before actually showing routes. Very disappointed as it was the best app in my opinion before the update.
