Comments on Japan Travel – Route,Map,Guide for Android

★★★★★ Very useful for searching routes. One can insert his travel pass(I.g JR Pass), then it can search the routes in which the JR pass can be applied.

★★★★★ A must-have if you're visiting Japan. I would've been lost multiple times without it, and you can filter to any passes you have (e.g. JR, Osaka Amazing Pass, etc.). Highly recommended!

★★★★★ Occasionally can be awkward when dealing with times when editing a route. When searching for a different train, there doesn't seem to be a way to select a different route even though you can see it when searching the timetable. These are small issues, my first couple of days in Japan on the Shinkansen, Tokyo metro and rail links has been very simple with this app, thank you! 👍

★★☆☆☆ Has a notification permanently stuck in the notification bar that cannot be dismissed or disabled. Please remove this. Hard to use. Won't show a map of the route. Won't show a list of departures from a station. Can't find many destinations. Planning my trip is easier with Google Maps. ETA, this app is trash. I'm at station, looking for the train this suggested. It does not exist! No such departure time or train number at this station! Google told me a train and platform that is real. Garbage app.

★★☆☆☆ So damn confusing and complicated. When you do find times, they're all wrong. Google Maps shows prices, times and routes. Way better than this nonsense.

★★☆☆☆ The routes recommended are often suboptimal... for example the shin kobe to sannomiya route suggests I go via shinkansen to nishiakashi, and then train back up?? Instead of just transferring to the subway that goes there... I paid for premium too >.>

★★☆☆☆ Route feature is broken. It doesn't allow you to set your own departure location and always tries to use your gps location. It's invasive and unusable.
