I like the app, although it’s in beta there comes flaws such as 1. Less Radio Frequencies 2. Bad at Defining CN Train Symbols And 3. Not Enough Radio Feeds :( This app needs A TON of improvement because of this. Sincerly, -TILE2026

Hi Ronald, I purchased Railfan Copilot Pro on iOS today. The Live Train Map works correctly for Amtrak. However, selecting Union Pacific or BNSF results in “0 trains” nationwide, even when viewing the entire western U.S. The App Store description says the app tracks “real-time … freight train positions.” Is freight tracking currently available on iOS? If so, is it limited to certain railroads or regions? Thanks.
