Tokyo Rail Map+ Lite • Yokohama, Saitama, Chiba App Reviews

This is a lovely app, and very well designed. Sadly, it doesnt go out into the outer Tokyo metropolitan area far enough for me. I live 30 minutes west of 立川 (Tachikawa) along the Chuo line, which is well beyond this maps purview. If youre just staying within the central metro area, it looks like a great app; since I need an app for frequent trips to and from that area as well as for more strictly local travel, I wont be able to use it much.

Just started using it. Might upgrade

Very nice and very useful. Great App

Adding the numbers to the stations was great. Very helpful app.

Helped me to get around in Tokyo. The great part is that it has stations from the outskirts of Tokyo that other maps dont have!!

Good and reliable. Easier than carrying a paper map.

It is a small but great app that helped me a lot during my trip in Tokyo, especially in the situation that I have no cellular data available in a foreign country. I agree it is much more convenient than a paper map.

Easy, accurate and intuitive. Anyone on their first trip shoul have this.

This is NOTHING but nagware it its worst. The longer you use it the more annoying it becomes. Now it is forcibly taking me to the App Store to buy their premium app. Do not waste your time with this crappy app there are better and far far less annoying apps available.

For the lite version it is decent enough to get you around. The paid version might be better though.

I used this in Tokyo and was able to use it easily. Keep in mind that you should still have "basic train knowledge". This app will not hold your hand all the way to your destination. You will still have to figure out the switching and transfers on your own as well as what exits to take. The one thing I could recommend to make it perfect is that it could have actual land Mark destinations instead of train station locations only. Pro tip: select a station closets to the destination you wish to go. Lastly, this app does not seem to pick the quickest or cheapest route for you. It seems to just pick the route its most familiar with or the more scenic routes. I found myself taking longer more expensive routes 1 out of 5 of the times. Overall I still highly recommend this app. It saves you a lot of time figuring out the routes yourself.
