User Reviews

Users appreciate that the app provides a much-needed online railway ticket booking option and recent updates have improved usability somewhat. However, most reviews highlight serious flaws: inability to select or book preferred seats, frequent registration failures especially with passport validation, limited train availability, poor customer support response, and outdated or missing train information. These issues hinder the app's usability and reliability, leading to widespread user dissatisfaction despite its potential benefits.

Pros

Some users find the app helpful and easy to use for booking and payment without hassle.
The app represents a good initial effort to provide online railway ticket booking which was previously unavailable.
Recent updates have fixed minor bugs improving usability, such as station selection and calendar functionality.

Cons

Seat selection is poor; seats are assigned randomly without option to select or book consecutive seats especially for groups or families.
The registration and account creation process is frequently broken or fails, with OTP and passport validation issues preventing usage.
Limited train options are available in the app; many important daily trains are missing.
Customer support is non-responsive: no replies to refund requests or inquiries via calls, emails, or app messages.
The app lacks updated train details, booking details, and overall is not user friendly with poor design and contradictory controls.
