HYPERDIA Status

The English language voice search system supports "Departure station", "Arrival station", "last train", and "first train" input parameters.  this app is a train timetable application that allows you to search using natural language spoken queries in either English or Japanese.  This allows the user to search the same set of nationwide Japanese stations in either English or Japanese using text or voice input.  The voice search functionality helps to eliminate otherwise difficult and time-consuming text input, particularly when entering the names of Japanese train stations.  At any time during or after the end of the 30 days trial period, you may purchase a usage coupon to continue using the application and enable the full set of available features.  Of course, it is also possible to specify your search parameters using the built-in keypad without using the voice functionality.  Voice search is also useful when you are in a hurry, or when it's awkward to input text using the built-in keypad.  Please note that, although great care and effort have been taken in the development of this application, it is possible, due to circumstances beyond our control, that fare and/or time information may occasionally be incorrect.  The search parameters will be set automatically, providing quick access to the train timetable information you are looking for.  This can be particularly handy if you are a foreigner traveling in Japan for the first time, or simply prefer to see timetable information in English.  Please be aware that if you purchase a "Japanese + English" coupon when you already have a valid "Japanese" coupon, the "Japanese" coupon will become invalid.  Note that the English-language voice system is tailored to American English accents.  Both English and Japanese versions of the system are available.  The trial version of the application can be used for free for 30 days, starting from the first usage following installation.  In order to use this app after the free trial period, it is necessary to obtain a coupon by making an In App purchase.  Information including the shortest route, fares, commuter fares, and links to time information and maps is shown.
