User Reviews

Users broadly praise the South Shore for a convenient, affordable Chicago-bound option and find the app useful when the schedule works. However, the major pain points are the new schedule UI (clunky, slow, and hard to use), lack of Apple Pay/online payments, and recurring reliability issues (delays/crowding). Delay updates are hard to locate, and the app can be slow or unstable at times. The most mentioned themes are the schedule UI overhaul, payment limitations, and train reliability challenges.

Pros

Provides a convenient, affordable rail link to Chicago from Indiana, with trains roughly every couple hours.
The app is generally useful and easy to use when the schedule functions properly.
Some users perceive improvements to the experience as positive.

Cons

The new schedule UI/trip planner is clunky, slow, and hard to use; it replaces a quick schedule overview and often requires entering origin/destination each time.
Apple Pay is not supported and online ticket payments are not available.
Trains are frequently delayed, crowded, or skip stops, raising reliability concerns.
Delay/status updates are hard to find in the app and not prominently displayed.
Occasional performance issues (slow loading, spinner that doesn’t disappear, and unusable state)

Recent reviews

I work nights over in South Bend, Indiana at a company worth over a trillion dollars and this train decides to skip Gary, IN in the morning. I have to ride three trains now just to get home. I refused to buy a monthly pass worth $375 because of that. They are attempting to make me wait an extra three hours at an airport just to get off at my stop at the Municipal Field.
