TrainPing
Private beta

Know before you leave the house.

TrainPing watches the train you always catch and sends one WhatsApp before you go. On time, late, cancelled, wrong platform — you find out at home, not on the platform.

How it works
01

Tell it your train once. The 07:41 to London Bridge, say.

02

It checks the live feed before you leave, and again close to departure.

03

You get one message. Two if something changes. Never more.

04

Onward Tube lines ride along in the same message. Rail before tube, always.

TrainPing is in private beta. Public sign-up is coming, and it will be a WhatsApp conversation, not another app. The 07:41 is fine. Finish your tea.
