What is RailTime? RailTime is a train app that provides schedules, alarms, notifications, and train board features. It offers automatic schedule updates and GPS location tracking to determine the train you're on. The app supports MetroNorth Harlem, Hudson, New Haven, Danbury, Waterbury, and New Canaan lines, with Long Island Railroad in progress.
1. Do you call your significant other with the time of the train you're on? RailTime can do it for you! Just put their email address into the notification editor, and RailTime will send them an email when it figures out what train you're on.
2. RailTime is the first train app worth downloading, and the last one you'll ever need! Sure, it shows you the schedule, but that's just the beginning.
3. Want your friends to know what train you're on? RailTime can tweet your train too! Notifications only work on iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, and iPad 3G.
4. Do you often make connections to get to your destination? RailTime's train board allows you to choose any 2 stations, and it will dynamically calculate the best connections for you.
5. Even 3 trains if you have to! The train board automatically scrolls to the current time, so there are ZERO presses necessary to get the full picture.
6. Location Disclaimer - RailTime uses your GPS location in order to determine what train you're on.
7. Unlike other apps that only differentiate weekday from weekend, we manually update our schedules to reflect the little changes that need more granular data, so picking a specific date is necessary.
8. In RailTime, you can set an alarm on a trip with a lead time you specify, and it will let you know when you should be heading for the station.
9. PLEASE NOTE: While Railtime is free to download, it requires a paid subscription to receive schedules.
10. Need to plan for a future date? Press and hold the calendar button to select any date in the future.
11. GPS is only active for 30 seconds when determining your train, so it should not reduce battery life significantly.
