PLEASE MAKE A DEPARTURES WIDGET FOR THIS! Would be so useful and would look great on the home screen. Only just installed but seems to do everything I need, especially having a select destination for the bigger station departures.

NexT rain is great. I have been using it for several months now, and it makes finding the arrival, departure and status of trains at my local stations really easy. The design that mimics the orange dot matrix boards is my favorite and looks just like the real thing. My only query would be, I don't understand what the passenger information that can be cycled through green, white and back to clear does?

If you regularly commute by train this app is really handy. It has saved me from rushing for canceled trains and spotting platform changes before I even get to the station.

Battery hog! I only became aware of this after installing it when I kept getting continuous notifications that "next rain keeps stopping" even though the app wasn't open. On checking battery usage stats, it's used 17% of my battery despite the fact I only had it open for about 3 minutes to have a look at it! Shame as it's a nice idea.

Great idea, love how it's replicates real National Rail signage, but the UX is a terrible. No idea what any of the icons do, virtually no help (no one reads intro explainers), non-standard navigation. Also, no widget, really missed an opportunity here.

Your app is and was the alternative on day one; it was brilliant, but all various changes are unnecessary. The alternative was National Rail on day one, and this app was light years then ahead of it. I'll remind you my rating was a five and would be more at the beginning, maybe 4 years ago. Not sure why the app needs constant tinkering to a point that the font is unreadable. Happily to pay to get rid of the ads. You assume we want you to work for nothing when we just want the app to function
