About NextTransit

NextTransit is your station agent. It gives you real-time access to the next train at your selected stations. No more clicking and tapping through lists of train lines and stations. Set it up once and the next train time in each direction is always there at a glance. It even includes Home Screen Widget and a Lock Screen Widget so you always know when your next train is leaving. Supports 12 transit systems across six metro areas (with more on the way), including NYC/NJ/LI(MTA Metro-North, LIRR, NJ Transit), SF Bay Area (BART, Caltrain), Boston (MBTA Commuter Rail, The T), Philadelphia (SEPTA Regional Rail, NJ Transit, PATCO Speedline), Washington DC (WMATA Metrorail), and Chicago (CTA Rail, Metra).

What’s new

Version 2.0 · Updated June 11, 2026

NextTransit Pro is here! Upgrade once to unlock more from your commute: • Track two commutes at once — add a second station or even a second transit system, and see them both at a glance. • New large home screen widget — both of your commutes, side by side, without opening the app. Plus improvements for everyone: • Live departure indicator now shows in widgets for CTA, BART, and WMATA. • Transit system names now appear in commute headers, so it's always clear which system you're looking at — in the app and in widgets. • Fixed the station order when adding a destination so it matches the station picker. Thanks for riding with us!
