About Transit • Subway & Bus Times
Transit makes it easy to get around your city. No more waiting. No more guessing when your ride will arrive – our app helps you travel by public transit in 1,000+ cities. With live departure times and real-time vehicle tracking, you’ll always know EXACTLY when your bus or train is coming. With Transit, you can get anywhere without needing a car: • Plan the fastest route from A to B on public transportation • Quickly compare options like bike + rail or bus + subway • Get instant alerts about delays and disruptions • Save your favorite destinations and lines – then plan trips in just one tap! HERE’S WHAT THEY’RE SAYING “Gives you the best route to where you want to go” - New York Times “You won't realize how much time you can save planning until you use this app” - LA Times “Killer app” - Wall Street Journal “MBTA has a favorite transit app – and it's called Transit” - Boston Globe “A one-stop-shop” - Washington Post AND HERE’S THE WORD FROM PUBLIC TRANSIT RIDERS: “Your app was the deciding factor in selling my car.” “Blows Google Maps out of the water.” “The head of our local transit agency recommended this app over the one her agency created.” 6 GREAT THINGS ABOUT TRANSIT: THE BEST REAL-TIME DATA: Using the best transit agency data, GO crowdsourcing data and our in-house ETA prediction engine, we get you the most accurate real-time info possible for all transport modes: bus, subway or metro, train, streetcar, ferry, rideshare and more. Prefer to travel on two wheels? See live bikeshare and scooter locations right on the map. OFFLINE SUPPORT: Bus schedules, stop locations, subway maps and even our trip planner are available offline. When GPS is spotty underground? Use GO and you’ll still get precise ETAs. TRIP PLANNING PAR EXCELLENCE: See fast and easy routes on buses, subways and trains, and even multiple modes in one trip (bus + bike or scooter + metro). Personalize your journey planner in the settings: skip long walks or the modes you’d rather avoid. It’s like using the MTA Bus Time, MTA Train Time, NJ Transit MyBus, SF Next Muni, CTA Bus Tracker, WMATA Next Arrivals, SEPTA app – all in one! GO NAVIGATION*: Use GO to receive departure alarms to catch your bus or train, and get alerted when it’s time to get off or transfer. You’ll also contribute more accurate info and real-time ETAs for other passengers – and rack up points for being the most helpful rider on your line. CROWDSOURCED WISDOM: See what millions of riders say about crowding levels, on-time performance, the best station exits, and more. EASY PAYMENTS: Pay your transit fare and buy bikeshare passes directly in the app in 100+ cities. *Continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease battery life.
