6 GREAT THINGS ABOUT TRANSIT:

1) THE BEST REAL-TIME DATA
The app uses the best transit agency data sources like MTA Bus Time, MTA Train Time, NJ Transit MyBus, SF MUNI Next Bus, CTA Bus Tracker, WMATA Next Arrivals, SEPTA Real-Time and many more. We combine that data with our fancy ETA prediction engine so that you get the most accurate real-time info possible for all transit modes - including buses, subways, trains, streetcars, metros, ferries, ridehail and more. Prefer to travel on two wheels? With GPS, you can see live bikeshare and scooter locations right on the map.

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

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

4) 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.

5) 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 subway exits, and more.

6) Easy Payments
Pay your transit fare and buy bikeshare passes directly in the app in over 75 cities.

Pros and cons of Transit • Subway & Bus Times app for iPhone and iPad

Transit • Subway & Bus Times app good for

I cannot use this app because its not available in my region. But Id like to give 5 stars for this awesome update description
Its accurate and easy to use! And best of all, its getting better and better. And the update notes are also interesting to read as well :)
This is an automatic add for every iOS device. Essential, timely and reliable and a dozen more adjectives. Hell, even the write ups to their updates are great. Much love for keeping me and my family from freezing waiting for the
Fantastic app for transit riders! Easy to use and understand, its the perfect companion for anyone riding the bus or train.
Long ago, before the smart phone, before the gps, before I could broadcast my intense love/hate relationship with cheese to the world via social media, people had to stand in the cold, bitter tundra that is the Canadian landscape with crossed fingers hoping the bus would show up soon. I didnt have to do this mind you, but Ive heard stories. Regardless, this app makes all of that Neanderthalian nonsense a thing of the past. Its reliable, (like having to pay taxes, only they dont make you cry by taking all of your money) its easy, (like that one friend of yours) and its constantly improving (like we all tell ourselves were going to do for the first week or so of every new year). Oh, also, read their update info, theyre a hoot and a half every time.
this app has saved my life :) also all the updates and the descriptions of the updates make my day every time :)

Some bad moments

The older versions were the best, but this one doesnt even deserve my time to open the app, it showed me for 3 times the wrong bus time and route to my destination. I live in Canada btw, so I had to wait 23 long minutes at the bus stop with a friendly temperature of -9°
Read the article on Medium and thought "this is it", finally I could jump off the Google maps and use something more precise. First disappointment: the app doesnt show the places specified by names. In my case it was cafe name copied from Google maps with a full address. Second: when I decided to delete the name and leave only address in a field, whole entry was deleted. Third: ok, entered street name manually and chose it from the list and... the app showed me a time-table. The problem is that I move on the bicycle. Bicycle route is turned on, but its impossible to find it.
This app made me late for stuff when its supposed to make me on time! I shouldve never trusted you transit app. Ill see you in hell!
Inaccurate times!!!! I missed the bus and was late to work multiple times because the app is slow!!!!
Before you used to display different bus variation times in Brampton Ontario. Now you only show main bus times. This is very misleading. Please change it back to how it was before.
This app just steals your location data and shows random stuff around you. Good LUCK trying to pull any schedule out of this piece.
