Is there a Flighty for trains?

9 November 2026 · 2 min read · Dominik Uršič

If you fly often, you probably know Flighty: the flight tracker that tells you about a delay before the airline does, keeps your flight on the Lock Screen and stamps every trip into a passport. It won an Apple Design Award in 2023 (Apple). It tracks flights, not trains (Flighty).

Peron is the same idea for trains, starting in Slovenia. It's independent and not affiliated with Flighty.

Why trains need their own Flighty

A train trip goes wrong in smaller, more frequent ways than a flight. Five minutes late is enough to miss a change. The platform is often announced at the last minute. A closure turns part of the line into a bus. Commuters ride the same train 200 times a year, so the question is rarely "where is my train?" and more often "do I need to leave now?"

Peron is built around that daily trip. You set your train once, and Peron watches it every weekday.

Flighty's best ideas, on rails

Flight tracker features matched to Peron for trains: delay alerts, a live map of every train in Slovenia, predicted platforms, changes with a track record, Lock Screen trips and a rail passport.

Flighty, for flights Peron, for trains
Delay alerts before the airline announces them An alert when your train runs later than your threshold, checked every 30 s
Where's my plane Every passenger train in Slovenia on a live map, positions estimated and labelled
Gate changes Your platform predicted before the board, labelled Predicted
Connection assistant Changes with time to spare, time needed, how often they worked, and a plan B
Airport disruptions Closures and replacement buses, shown only on the trips they affect
Live Activities and Dynamic Island Your trip on the Lock Screen: next stop, arrival, delay
Flighty Passport Rail passport: stations, lines, kilometres, a visa for every border

Where Peron is different: it doesn't predict delays yet. It shows the live delay and the track record of your trains and changes, so you can judge for yourself.

Built the same careful way

  • Calm. One alert on a normal day, none when the train is on time.
  • Honest. Estimates are labelled as estimates. Predicted platforms say Predicted.
  • Private. Sign in with Apple, trips in your own iCloud, location never leaves your iPhone.
  • Independent. Not the railway's app, so it can tell you plainly when the train is late.

Questions

If Flighty made flying calmer for you, Peron is meant to do the same for your train.
