Indian Railways companion · Android

Every train in India. One calm companion.

RailTrack finds your train, follows it live on the map, reads any station's board, checks your PNR, and wakes you before your stop — with no account to create, no ads to dodge, and an honest label on every number that is estimated rather than live.

Free to download. No sign-in required. Android first.

Features

Everything a rail journey needs, in four tabs.

Route, Spot, Live, and More — each one built around a real moment of a journey, from planning at home to stepping off at your station.

Trains between stations

Pick any two of 8,975 stations, choose your date and quota — General, Tatkal, and the rest — and get every train on the route with timings, classes, and fares. Popular routes and your recent searches are one tap away.

Live running status

Spot any train by number or name and follow it live: current position on the map, speed, delay, and the next stop with an ETA. Tracking keeps going in the background while you do other things.

Station boards

Arrivals and departures for any station, in the time window you care about, with filters for local and long-distance trains. The board tells you plainly when it is showing cached data instead of a live refresh.

Full train detail

Every stop on the route with scheduled and actual times, running days, and the train's path drawn on the map — built from the bundled directory, so the timeline opens instantly even before the network answers.

PNR status, honestly

Type a PNR, paste it from an SMS, or speak it. A valid PNR shows its real status; an unknown one says so outright — never dressed up as a completed journey.

Wake-up alarms that fire

Set an alarm for your stop, minutes before arrival, and it fires even if the app was closed — exact alarms, re-armed after a reboot, with vibration. Sleep through the night stretch; wake for your station.

Works where networks don't

Station and train directories, search, history, and route results all work with no connection at all. Download offline map regions for the stretches you travel, and live data picks up again when you're back in coverage.

IRCTC menu & bill calculator

The statutory onboard food tariff, in the app, with a bill calculator so you know what a meal should cost before you order it. No more guessing at the pantry car.

Railway helplines, one tap

The helpline directory lives in More, ready to call — plus your history across routes, trains, stations, and PNRs, and a real Settings screen for theme, language, and notifications.

Honest data

Live means live. Estimated says estimated.

Some of what looks like live rail data is, in truth, derived on your phone. RailTrack never dresses it up. Every value in the app carries its provenance, so you always know what you're looking at — and what to double-check before you act on it.

Live

Running status, station boards, and PNR come from rail data sources when you're connected, and are shown as live only then.

Estimated

Route-search fares and seat availability are computed on-device from the timetable, and the map position between status updates is projected from the schedule. Both are labeled “Estimated” wherever they appear.

Offline

Directories, search, history, and route results work entirely offline. Live status, real boards, and PNR need a connection, and the app says so instead of silently showing stale data.

Privacy

No account. Your journeys stay on your phone.

  • No sign-in, ever. History, alarms, and favourites live on your device, not on a server.
  • Location with a purpose. Used to show nearby stations, and in the background only while a journey you started is being tracked.
  • No ads, no ad trackers. Nothing in the app watches you for advertisers.
  • Payments stay with Google Play. The app never sees your card details — only whether a tip went through.

Supporter

Kept free by people who like it.

RailTrack is free, and staying that way is the deal: there are no ads and no paywalled features. If the app earns its keep on your journeys, a voluntary tip through Google Play — one-time or monthly — helps keep it that way.

A tip unlocks nothing. Every feature is already yours. Supporters simply get a thank-you in the app once their total tips reach ₹10 — and a monthly tip can be cancelled anytime from your Google Play subscriptions.

Made for India

IST everywhere. INR everywhere. English and हिन्दी.

All train times are Indian Standard Time, no matter what your phone's clock is set to. All prices are in rupees. And the whole interface speaks English and Hindi — switch anytime from Settings, no restart needed.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

Is RailTrack an official Indian Railways app?

No. RailTrack is an independent companion built by its developer. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Indian Railways, IRCTC, NTES, or ConfirmTkt. For booking tickets and official announcements, use the official channels.

Can I book tickets in RailTrack?

No — RailTrack does not sell tickets. It helps you plan and follow a journey; booking itself happens through the official or partner booking channels.

Why do some fares and availability figures say “Estimated”?

Because they are. Route-search fares and seat availability are computed on your device from timetable data rather than fetched from a live inventory, and the map position between live updates is projected from the schedule. The label is the point: use estimates for planning, and confirm a booking-critical detail with the official source.

Does it work without internet?

Partly, and honestly so. Station and train directories, search, history, and route results work fully offline, and you can download map regions ahead of a trip. Live running status, real station boards, and PNR checks need a connection.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-in and no server-side profile. Your searches, alarms, and favourites live on your phone, and uninstalling the app removes them.

What does a supporter tip get me?

Nothing extra — deliberately. Tips are goodwill: they keep the app free and ad-free for everyone. A monthly tip can be cancelled anytime from Google Play subscriptions.
