6 GREAT THINGS ABOUT TRANSIT:

THE BEST REAL-TIME DATA
The app uses the best transit agency data sources — whether it’s SBB for nationwide trains, for regional connections, like VBZ (Zurich), TPG (Geneva), and BVB (Basel). We combine that data with our ETA prediction engine so you get the most accurate real-time info possible for all modes of transport — including buses, trams, trains, metros, ferries, ride-hail like Uber, and more. Prefer to travel on two wheels? With Transit, you can see the safest bike path and road to take.

TRAVEL OFFLINE
Bus schedules, stop locations, tram maps, and even our trip planner are available offline.

POWERFUL TRIP PLANNING
See fast and easy trips combining buses, trams, and trains – the app even suggests routes that combine multiple options in one trip, like bus + train or bike + tram. You’ll find great trip plans that you never even considered! Don’t like to walk a lot or use a certain mode or operator? Personalize your travel in the settings.

GO: our step-by-step navigator*
Receive departure alarms to catch your bus or train, and get alerted when it’s time to get off or transfer. When using GO, you’ll also crowdsource more accurate info and real-time ETAs for other passengers – and rack up points and thank-yous for being the most helpful rider on your line.

USER REPORTS
See what other riders have to say! With millions of users contributing, you’ll get helpful info on crowding levels, on-time performance, the closest station exits, and more.

EASY PAYMENTS
Pay your transit fare and buy bike share passes directly in the app in over 75 cities.

I really loved this app until the most recent update, which completely changed the ui and some of the functions. With the new update, it's harder for me to tell which bus I am taking and when it will arrive. While I'm on the bus, the app no longer shows me all the stops on the route. It does not show me the full route on screen, and it keeps zooming in to the bus no matter what I do, so I cannot see how close I am to my destination. The notifications now alert me after my stop and not before it.

Rarely have times been accurate for the one single Foothill Transit line I need this for. This app is the lone reason I've been late for work. It says x minutes until a bus arrives, then the bus never shows up, and it updates to 23 minutes. Sometimes, it says x minutes until bus arrives, but it's actually the time for the opposite direction. It's like it populates only the soonest time for whatever direction you're looking up.

my favorite transit app by far!! immediately subscribed, $25 a year is great but free version works the same. I encountered an issue today where I noticed during GO trip on a subterranean heavy rail (LA Metro B Line) the app consistently thought I was much further ahead on the trip than I actually was. I worry that it reduced the efficiency of how helpful my data was, but I've literally never had any other issues. EVERYONE SHOULD BE USING THIS IF YOU'RE TRYING TO GET SOMEWHERE WITHOUT A CAR!

What’s new

The best cyclists in the world took our hometown by storm as they duked it out at the Road World Championships in Montreal this week.

Dodging our city’s infamous potholes, traffic pylons, and cowbell-clad maniacs on electric BIXIs, the winners sped to the finish — and hey, so does this new and faster version of Transit.

Rate us 5 stars and we’ll put some poutine gravy in your bidons.
