Performance depends on the performance of the GPS on your smartphone.

GPS consumes a lot of power. It's safe to connect it to a power source.

Even near the Tokaido Shinkansen in Shiga Prefecture, Tsuruga Station is displayed as a nearby station. (This is a point where you can experience the proximity to the Hokuriku Shinkansen.)

Kintetsu Line stations are not displayed. Only attention point notifications work.

If you would like station notifications for the Kintetsu Line, Odakyu Line, etc., please use our sister app Speed ​​Guide Odakyu Kintetsu.
