Train Stop Alarm

Dozed off or lost in your phone? Silent vibration + full-screen alert as you near your stop. Handles transfers; Tokyo subway timetables give precise timing underground.

Missed your station because you fell asleep on the train? Got lost in a book, a game, or your phone and rode right past your stop?

Train Stop Alarm wakes you with continuous vibration and a full-screen alert as you approach your destination station. No speaker sound — perfect for quiet train cars in Japan.

Ideal for travelers in Japan: set your stop, then relax — even on unfamiliar lines, with transfers, and in subways.

■ Easy 3-step setup

1. Search for your destination station by name (English OK)
2. Check the alert radius on the map (300 m – 2 km from the station)
3. Tap "Set Alarm & Board" — then sleep, read, or enjoy the ride
