One-liner
A real-time train status tracker for Indian railways that shows live location, delays, and platform info using IRCTC data.
Strengths
- Provides accurate real-time train tracking with GPS-like updates (review: 'Shows exact location of my train on the map, very helpful')
- Simple, no-frills interface focused solely on train status (review: 'No ads, just the info I need')
- Works offline after initial load (review: 'Even without internet, it shows last known position')
- Supports multiple trains simultaneously (review: 'I track 3 trains at once, works perfectly')
- Uses official IRCTC data sources, making it reliable
Weaknesses
- No alerts or notifications for delays or platform changes (review: 'Would be great if it warned me when my train is delayed')

Opportunities
