This process involved identifying common pain points and user expectations. As well as created wireframes and prototypes based on user feedback to ensure an intuitive user interface and seamless user experience. Implemented the mobile app using appropriate technologies and frameworks. Integrated APIs for real-time train tracking and reservation functionalities. As well as conducted thorough testing to ensure the app's functionality, performance, and security. Addressed any bugs or issues identified during testing launched the app on relevant platforms (Android) and marketed it to target users. Successfully developed a mobile app for train tracking and reservation with an intuitive user interface and robust functionalities providing real-time updates on train schedules, arrivals, and departures, enhancing commuter convenience, and reducing uncertainty. The app addresses commuter issues with train schedules and reservations, offering real-time updates and a simplified process. Continuous monitoring ensures reliability and user satisfaction. Future enhancements may include additional features or integration with other services, driven by demand and market trends. Overall, it improves the commuter experience and railway efficiency
