★★★★★
Love this app, usually it is quite accurate. Two cool things Train Trapper can improve on... real-time train arrival times in case they are delayed and a reverse functionality of locations - so that I don't have to return to the previous page to reset locations.
★★★★★
Better than metro and ptv app although it's now telling me that the train I am on is arriving at my host station.... As I am getting off the train.
★★★★★
Well designed, can setup the favourite stops. But recently the timetable is not correct, not sure if it is temporary change from the Metro or the app's timetable need an update.
★★☆☆☆
I use this on the Frankston line, and it had generally been very good, but the last few months I've noticed that the timetable is out of date, showing trains that no longer run. It's a shame, the app was reliable, useful, and easy to use, but without the data it's basically useless.
★★☆☆☆
Train times were simply wrong. Verified against PTV timetables. Don't rely on this app if accuracy is important.
★★☆☆☆
Don't trust this app to give you correct information at all. Timetable desperately needs to be updated with train times not correct and missing information. This morning the app was showing a weekend timetable. I suggest to look at other apps for your transport information. This has become a useless and the worst app.
