Searching for Intercity connections,
checking on train punctuality, offers and information important for rail
travellers – these are options provided by IC Mobile Navigator, prepared by PKP
Intercity for users of mobile devices.
At
the beginning of January the application was available for the iPhone, the iPad
and smartphones with the Android operating system. Since the beginning of
September it has been possible to download it also for telephones with Windows
Phone systems.
Using the software is simple and
intuitive. Having opened it, a search screen appears allowing a first and last
station to be defined, along with the date and time of the journey. Having
clicked 'search', the suggested connections are displayed. The list may be
expanded to cover earlier and later trains. Clicking on a selected train brings
up information on the carriages from which the train is formed, and in the
event that the user is unsure of how to reach the station, it is possible to
use the option 'Lead to', allowing the navigation to locate the user and show
the way.
In
addition to this, a train selected can be remembered in the 'Planned' section,
making it possible for the user to update departure / arrival time for
subsequent days with no need to enter the starting and destination station each
time.
The
application is integrated with the Infopassenger system, thanks to which it is
possible to check – in real time – the punctuality of a selected train at any
station on the route. In the course of a journey the application will provide
information on where exactly the user is and whether the destination station
will be reached on time, allowing for better planning of the continuation of
the journey.
The
application also has an 'Info' section, where the user will find details of use
before and after a journey – information on PKP Intercity offers, where lost
luggage is to be found and where a ticket can be purchased.
