铁路12306 Reviews

by Benjaminchodroff

My full name is 23 characters long and is not supported during registration. This is the same name in my passport and on all my Chinese banks (although each bank decides decides differently whether to put my last name first...). Please china- research how names work in the world. There are surnames. There are given names. Ask for both, and accept that some of these names are really long.

What a stupid app it is!!! Just a tiny app update and resets everything including authentication and Face ID. This is the out come of monopoly. They can do what ever stupid and terrible thing they want just because there is no other choice.

I can’t understand there is a app that needs China’s phone number while only provides services to foreigner passport holders.

I can not find the way to change the language or download the English version... 😫

Shows a blank page

You can not register and verify with the English version of 铁路12306. It is largely useless.

铁路12306 once update will be changed hard ,not easy useful, a country tail purchase App made so hard useful , i will not use it ;

by Reporter001_

Why publish an app where foreigners cannot confirm their phone number and email address! My friends have the same problem! Absolutely horrible. Buying a train ticket in China is such a nightmare!!! Now waiting line to buy a ticket at the counter and will (again!) miss my train that would have left in one hour!!!

I couldn’t even register so other than searching for train times 铁路12306 does not work. Very frustrating since there are few easy options.

by Trisheep

It can’t even load the registration page which is required to purchase a ticket

by BaiduDoEvil

No way to look up my tickets through web, this feature is only supported in mobile app. What’s more, no English support for 铁路12306.

I wasn’t able to use 铁路12306 at all because it froze every time I tried to sign up for an account. After 10 times, I have up

by Joshua Simmons

You will do everything and create and account, but you can’t select the train. The button to select a train doesn’t work. Yikes.

无法注册也没有客服可咨询 if you don’t have a Chinese ID or +86 mainland phone number can’t register or buy tickets. No customers service can help you with any issues.

Signed up thru 铁路12306 , and submitted my information for verification, no response. Then I went to train station 2 hours in advance for in person ID verification, the personnel does not know how verify. Waited 90 mins in line and there were only 10 customers, and this is probably the most frustrating experience that I need to purchase a train ticket directly from a company.

I downloaded it but only able to check rain schedule, I could not even register myself. Only a complete white screen with nothing showing. Asked another person to check, got the same thing. How is this possible?

by 金沙克

It is the worst app I have ever used. It can make up tickets for you without your permission and send you a message “ hey, you bought tickets successfully “. No time no train number. It is very much in line with the Chinese government‘s usual hooliganism

by Jasonaax

Please remove the open-screen advertisement! It seriously affects my user experience, which also violates the EU advertising policy. If you don't change it, I think you may have to react to Apple! Or you will receive legal sanctions!

by Cia1340

The keeps hangs with a white/blank screen when I try to register. I have to delete 铁路12306 and reinstall it but I still cannot register.

by A_liu08

Clicked the register, no response. Tried many times within several hours, still did not let the register go through. Have to delete from my phone.

by Dontbuildsoftwaresucks

I switched to 铁路12306 after the website keep showing “system is busy” message, and hope I can do the passport verification on 铁路12306 by any luck. It turned out it’s even worse on 铁路12306 , the passport screen loads as blank screen with nothing, zero, nil. What a joke.

by Qwerfghvb

Cannot search for the train.

by Sayhiworld

Adjust your system time and enjoy.

by Ufidoo

by Glen Bai

by Dastin_

Ridiculous!

by HFhefH50TD

Why is such good software so difficult to use? ？ ？ The operation is very inconvenient

by SenatorZhao

1. can’t purchase at night;2. Cannot get Hong Kong Tickets

by Molanaei

Just delete the application and enjoy your life.

by Abscoggin

As a foreigner, I need an English version of 铁路12306. Chinese doesn’t help one bit.

by FrankG.Y

So so so stupid. I can't even check my ticket after 11pm EVERYDAY?! How stupid is that???? 👎🏻

by Usernnr

wont work if you dont give permission to it. Please ban it.

by Anthony Wong123

Can’t believe there is such a trash app in 2020

by Workphone11

I installed 铁路12306 to facilitate some travel plans in China. Using some online tutorials, I switched the language to English to help navigate. Other tutorials stated that switching to simplified Chinese would help 铁路12306 function properly, which was true. Unfortunately, the option to switch back to English then disappeared forever. Ridiculous.

什么时候适配Pro Max

by 🈶️😳😋🍰🐈🍰🐈🦵

I do not believe that the official Chinese railway APP could not pay by Apple Pay!That is terrible! That’s,Apple Pay should be included!!!

by 👨‍👨‍👦👕👘💄👢abc

Please optimise the settings of the dynamic island, don't lock screen state left slide clear and then can't show again, suggest to give a button to show real time activity, easy to show again

by I__Eric

铁路12306 intend to help you buy train tickets but the only outcome is to frustrate you until all tickets are sold out. Lots of bugs and poor experience!

by Ærïç

Yo guys u should try use that Xie Cheng app if 铁路12306 don’t allow ur phone number or name to get registered

by Llsqc

It runs in scaled mode (and forced vertical) on my iPad Pro. It’s inconvenient to operate. Looking forward to a real iPad version

by Willkaert

you know nothing

by Jiadai326

If you hold non-Chinese passport, even if you are Chinese, use the English version of 铁路12306 . Or else they will keep denying your ID verification and you can’t purchase tickets without verified with your passport. I got denied twice at first, but when switching back to the English version of 铁路12306 , I got quickly approved.

by Ibrahim RI

It has a very good UI, the graphics are better than before.
It’s more flow, and more accurate.

by Oliver Grandeur

It’s so happy to see 铁路12306 getting better and better! All new UI and all new experience!
Good job!

by CODM.寒落

This is China's railway, not yours. Is it sick to give a ***ing bad review?

by DivineAeneid

If you convert over to the Chinese, use Papago, you get a lot more options and do all the fun things that you see everyone else doing.
