metroNotify

Works a treat, but I do wish I had more control over the notification schedules. I end up getting notifications well over an hour before I leave work in the evenings because I can't select a later time.

This app has one job: notify you of travel-related events you care about. It is unreliable at best at even doing this. A few suggestions also. 1) Giving the option to set alert times is great, however it would be better if this was customisable. Not everyone works the same hours and people need different information depending on their situation. 2) Following on from this, being able to choose the "severity" of notifications would be great too. I don't really care if there's a good service, it just clogs up my notifications with redundant information and I end up dismissing important updates because they're too frequent. A nice experience would be to only flash up a notification when there's something I need to know about. 3) A lot of people will use more than one form of transport to get somewhere (i.e. train, tram) so updates about a train line only aren't always going to tell the complete story of how your trip looks.

The latest version of the app finally works properly, including notifications, a year after the issue was reported. Metro Trains need to be more on top of app development especially in terms of compatibillity with newer versions of Android. They also need to improve the features of the app as well as layout (to follow Google's design recommendations) which has virtually not been changed since a long time ago.
