1. Tap Add route. Pick your From and To stations and your usual departure, then tap Continue.
2. Pick the days you travel, when to start checking and which alerts you want, then tap Save route.
3. That is all. gowhistle watches the train and tells you about delays, cancellations and platform changes. An on-time train stays silent.

• Allow notifications for gowhistle when the app asks. If you said no, open your phone's Settings, then Apps, gowhistle, Notifications, and switch them on, including Train alerts.
• In the app, check that Notifications is on at the top of the Routes screen, and that the route is not paused.
• Open the route and check its alerts: Delay alerts, Cancellation alerts and Platform change alerts. Delays only alert from the time set in Delay alerts from (5 minutes unless you change it).
• If alerts arrive late, open Settings, then Apps, gowhistle, Battery, and choose Unrestricted. The names vary a little between phones.

Every 30 minutes from 2 hours before it leaves, every 5 minutes in the last hour and every 2 minutes in the last 15 minutes. You can start checking earlier or later on each route. With night-before alerts on, we also check at 21:00 and 23:00 the evening before. Open a route to see its watch timeline.

Sign in with the same Google account. Your routes and alerts follow the account, and every signed-in phone gets alerts.
