Catch the next train without catching a signal.

The whole timetable lives on your phone. Plan a journey in a tunnel, check the board on a packed platform, and never watch a spinner while a train pulls away.

No sign-up. No ads for your data. Works the moment it finishes installing.

What it does

Everything a daily commuter actually opens.

Built around the two questions you ask on a platform — when is the next one, and will I make it — and nothing that gets in the way of answering them.

Journey planner

Pick two stations and get real departures, arrival times, interchanges and which line to board — ranked fastest first.

Live departure board

Every train leaving your station, counted down in minutes, with platform, train number and fast/slow/AC filters.

Departure reminders

Set an alarm against a specific train. It rings before you need to leave, whether or not the app is open.

Every line, mapped

Suburban and metro network maps you can pinch and read, plus a line-by-line browser with every stop in order.

Buses, ferries & fares

Bus routes, ferry timings, ticket and pass fares, penalty rules and emergency numbers — the reference you normally go hunting for.

Service alerts

Megablocks, diversions and disruptions pushed straight to your phone, and kept in the app so you can read them again.

A look inside

Fast to read at a glance, because that is all the time you get.

Explore the network

Browse every line and its stations, across suburban railway and metro alike.

Offline first

Underground, in a basement, or out of data.

Most transit apps are a website in a wrapper — lose signal and you lose the timetable. NextTrain ships the timetable inside the app and reads it from your own phone, so the answer arrives instantly whether you have five bars or none.

  • Instant results
    No network round-trip between you and the next train.
  • Three languages
    English, हिन्दी and मराठी, switchable at any time.
  • Light and dark
    A dark theme that is actually readable on a night platform.
  • Quiet updates
    New timetables download in the background when one is published.

Privacy & FAQ

There is no account, so there is nothing to leak.

The questions people actually ask, answered in plain words.

What does NextTrain collect about me?

No name, no email, no phone number and no sign-in of any kind. Your stations, recent searches, favourites, reminders and language setting are stored on your device and are never uploaded.

Does it track my location?

The app does not request location permission. You choose your station from a list; nothing follows you between them.

What is sent to your servers, then?

Two things. A check for a newer timetable, which sends only the version number you already have. And — if you allow notifications — an anonymous device token from Google so service alerts can reach you. It is not tied to any identity and you can turn notifications off in Android settings at any time.

Does it show ads?

Yes, a small number of ads from Google AdMob keep the app free. They are served by Google under its own policy; nothing about your journeys is shared with advertisers.

Where does the timetable data come from?

Published operator timetables, compiled into the app and refreshed when the networks change. Timings are indicative — always allow for real-world delays.

Does NextTrain work without internet?

Yes. The entire timetable ships inside the app and is read from your own phone, so journey planning and departure boards work underground, in a basement, or with no data balance.

Is NextTrain free?

Yes, completely free to download and use on Android. It is funded by a small number of ads rather than a subscription.

Your next train is already on your phone.

Free, offline, and about the size of a few photos. Install it once and stop refreshing.
