HERE’S WHAT THEY’RE SAYING "Gives you the best route to where you want to go" - New York Times “You won't realize how much time you can save planning until you use this app” - LA Times “Killer app” - Wall Street Journal "MBTA has a favorite transit app — and it's called Transit" - Boston Globe “A one-stop-shop” - Washington Post
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.

keeps crashing way too much. Every time I open the app, 5 seconds later the app fully crashes. it's cost me missing the bus 4 times in the span of a year. It's almost daily I have to deal with the app constantly crashing. I open the app, tap a destination, it loads and before I can see what bus to take, the app crashes and closes.

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.

Inaccurate bus arrival time has me missing work on so many occasions. It says the bus will arrive at a certain time, then will switch up and says it has already passed or will arrive 10 minutes sooner. Please fix this. Update: This new update is awful. The directions to scan for an all say pass are terrible, and they don't make any sense. It's so complicated, and for what reason? It honestly feels like the app is stealing from us. I wish it would just change back. Terrible.
