I used this app when I was in Osaka. It was super useful to try to figure out the best way to get to point A to B. the current location is super helpful. The only con of this app is if it can include the railroad stations for Kobe and Kyoto since they are so close to each other and many tourists like me visit all 3 places together.
It was really difficult to find a good map for Osaka, but this one finally meets all my needs. Lines of all rail companies are included and the map is easy to read. Locating the station nearest to you and finding a route from there worked great. I highly recommend this app to anyone traveling to the Kansai region either for business or sightseeing.
