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 public 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 trips combining buses, subways and trains, and even multiple modes in one trip (bus + bike or scooter + metro). Personalize your travel in the settings – skip long walks or the modes you’d rather avoid.

GO NAVIGATION*: Use GO navigator 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 other riders have to say! With millions of users contributing, you’ll get helpful info on crowding levels, on-time performance, the closest 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.

Ratings and reviews

I really loved this app until the most recent update, which completely changed the ui and some of the functions. With the new update, it's harder for me to tell which bus I am taking and when it will arrive. While I'm on the bus, the app no longer shows me all the stops on the route. It does not show me the full route on screen, and it keeps zooming in to the bus no matter what I do, so I cannot see how close I am to my destination. The notifications now alert me after my stop and not before it.

Constantly have to force stop when, after reaching one's destination, the app won't work correctly when attempting to connect to an adjoining route - it basically has to be reset (via force stop) to restore its normal functionality. Another bug issue is that you can only change the app icon color a few times before it "locks" and it can no longer be changed without uninstalling / reinstalling, which afterwards warns you you'll have to contact them if you uninstall / reinstall again. What a mess.

Could be great, but frustrating. I installed this app primarily for the subway time widgets, but they work at best 10% of the time. Most of the time, they are simply a grey block. Often, they are hours out of date. And it's not clear what it's choosing to show. I also wanted to contribute to their "Go" location tracking, but it's not designed for the NY subway. You have to follow their exact directions, you can't get on an early train, nor can you help if you are already on a train.

What’s new

Transit romantics rejoice! Trip History is here. Enable it in the settings to start keeping a journal of all your past GO trips. We’ll let you look up stats for each trip, including the number of riders you helped via GO crowdsourcing, how far you travelled, and more.

We’ve also updated the homescreen widget, which now lets you plan a trip in just one tap for (up to) four saved locations.
