About this app

Formerly "Transit Tracker: Chicago CTA"



Depot is a powerful tracker for the buses and trains of the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA).


- Get quick answers: See the stops and routes that are closest to you and save the ones you use most for easy access
- No need to keep opening up the app: Track arrival times in your notification bar or right on your home screen with Depot widgets
- Don't waste time in the cold: Set an alarm that lets you know when to leave the house
- Sit back and relax: Depot can notify you when your stop is coming up
- In the mood to bike instead? Depot also shows you a list of available Divvy bikes and stations


Depot Chicago is easy to use, features a sleek design, and does not have any ads. All transit data comes directly from the Chicago Transit Authority.


Permissions requested:
Location - The app uses your location to show you nearby CTA bus stops and train stations.
Photo/Media/Files - The app stores certain CTA data locally on your device so that it does not have to use the internet every time it needs to access that data. This saves you time and data usage.

The live tracker map function is the best I've found. More apps need this. Pity this one seems to be abandoned because there are some enhancements that could improve it further.

Love the desktop widgets. Edit: the widgets stop working all the time, which requires rebuilding each widget to fix. Annoying. Apparently this app is abandoned. Bummer, its so close.

What's new

First update in 8 years! Just bringing the app up to speed with the latest Android platform requirements to keep it listed on the Play Store.

Will hopefully be releasing another version again soon to update the stops database with missing or changed stops.

Temporarily disabled Divvy features as they were broken due to changes in the associated APIs.
