Trainsity Osaka Windows Phone App

Carry these high resolution vector maps of Osaka city's subway train network in your Windows Phone and find your way around Osaka. The maps have small file sizes and can be accessed without a data connection. The following metro rail lines are available:
  • Midosuji, 
  • Tanimachi, 
  • Yotsubashi, 
  • Chuo, 
  • Sennichimae, 
  • Sakaisuji, 
  • Nagahori-Tsurumi-ryokuchi, 
  • Imazatosuji, 
  • Newtram Nanko Port Town, 
  • Kita Osaka Kyuko, 
  • Kintetsu Keihanna, 
  • Hankyu Kyoto, 
  • Hankyu Senri, 
  • Osaka Monorail, and 
  • Kitakyu Namboku lines.
Users can click the train station labels to open the external Bing Maps app where they can use all the functions of the external app to visualize the surrounding area including querying for directions. This app has its own directions function for finding the best path from one train station to another.

On a Windows Phone handset, the app will display tiles of train lines, which when tapped will open up a detail view of the metro transit map, as shown below.
Tapping the station labels will bring up an option menu where users can choose to display the station location in Bing Maps.
If you want to find how long it takes to travel from one station to another, and the best route to take, simply swipe to the Route page. Then type in the From station and To station. As you enter the values, a drop down list will appear and a station can be selected from the list. Finally tap the Execute icon.
Tapping the more details link will display the recommended route to take.
 Click the button below to download the app from the Windows Phone store.
