This app just got a major update. The previous version was basically unusable for foreigners. This new one is like a completely different app. No more constant bugs and connection interruptions. You no longer have to look by using actual station names: Beijing->Shanghai searches for all stations. The app now also searches for connecting itineraries. There are occasional hickups, but much less than previously.

I cannot confirm the passenger after selection. The done button is on the top with the system icon, which cannot be selected on my pixel 11. When it can be fixed.

It's the most useful app for railway tickets at China ... but last few days it's getting difficult to book over the English version ...

Managed to register and login via Gmail using English setting. But when u add a passenger, I'm not sure how u can verify the passenger's email? It's not clear. And u cannot resend the verification? It's also important to note that once u register, u cannot change your passport details. The chinese language version has more settings.

I cannot view the information of the ticket I have purchased.
★★☆☆☆Richard Janecki· Jan 20, 2026
Unable to book for both myself and my spouse. I'm a US citizen. When I try to add my wife, a Chinese citizen, as a passenger I cannot because I have to select a country for her ID and China is NOT listed! So, I cannot use this version of the app most of the time. Such an easy fix and it's not being done!
★☆☆☆☆Lancashire Expat· Oct 27, 2025
Unusable for foreigners. No verification or password reset email with the app not accepting the absolutely correct password set. You get a little further when using a desktop app, but it is still nightmare to use. Gave up in the end. Will book a taxi.
★☆☆☆☆The Genius· Sep 18, 2026
The app refuses to send me a confirmation email, and because it already has my passport information, I can no longer register, and I will never be able to use the app. Racist.
