Bus & Train: When to Leave

Beacon turns the bus and train times you already know into one answer: leave now, or you still have four minutes. Save the stops you actually use — home, work, the cafe — with how long it takes you to walk there. Add the lines you ride and the departures you catch. Beacon counts back from every departure, subtracts your walk, and puts the soonest leave-by at the top of the board. Flag a departure and your phone taps you on the shoulder before you need to be out the door. WHAT YOU GET • Step out at the right minute — every card shows when to leave, not just when it departs, so the walk is already accounted for. • One board for every line — bus, tram, train, subway and ferry departures across all your stops, sorted by when you have to move. • Reminders that reach you — a "Time to leave" notification fires ahead of each departure you flag, even with the app closed. • Weekday-aware schedules — mark which days a departure runs and the board only shows what actually leaves today. • Stops that fit your life — pin home and work for a quick per-stop board, and switch off a line you are not riding this week. • Nothing to load on the platform — your whole timetable lives on your phone and works underground or out of signal. PERFECT FOR • Daily commuters who ride the same two or three lines and keep missing them by a minute. • Students juggling a campus shuttle and a city bus between classes. • Parents timing the school run around a fixed bus departure. • Anyone whose local operator publishes a timetable but no usable app. WHY NOT JUST CHECK THE OPERATOR'S APP? Those apps list every line in the city and answer "when does the next one come?" Beacon answers the only question that gets you out the door: "when do I have to leave?" No searching, no map, no account — your lines, your walk, your leave-by time. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your stops, lines and schedules stay on this device. No sign-up, no location tracking, no ads, and nothing is sent to a server.
