About this app

Transit is your real-time city travel companion. It works in 300+ cities, for buses, trains, Ubers, Lyfts, and everything in between. Get precise real-time predictions for public transit, the smartest & fastest trip plans, and a step-by-step navigator when you’re going to unfamiliar destinations (or to wake you up from a mid-trip nap™). Our app gives you all the info you need, in a clear, bold interface so you don’t get lost or stuck at the stop.

Whether you’re new to a city… or a subway expert who takes NYC’s MTA / LA Metro / WMATA / MBTA / BART / CTA / SEPTA every day (or the 200+ other systems we support) this is the award-winning app you need.

*Turn on mobile data to get real-time information
**No data? Don’t worry: our trip planner works offline, using schedules

No longer works great now that features are being removed from the free version. Miss the Go feature, which no longer functions. Also helps when the location feed data from Metro is working correctly. Nice to see available options nearby. Was usually accurate. It's annoying now due to limited information from not paying for a subscription. Was better when LACMTA had a partnership for upgraded service for everyone.

more accurate then the Philadelphia mass transit system. I have also used the app in New Jersey with no issues for Jersey Transit and the same for Delaware. so if you're anywhere in the Mid-Atlantic area this app is for you since you can use it on multiple systems and it works and intertwines between all of them just well so you don't have to have multiple apps for multiple systems.

Staring to become unreliable, I mysteriously get kicked out of "Go mode" mid trip to the point where I miss my stop. this is happening frequently. It used to work well, but not anymore. Please fix it, it'll be greatly appreciated. Also, please fix it back on how it used to be when we were able to look at the other bus lines while in "Go mode" uninterrupted.

Hi, sorry this is happening; we're here to help! Could you send us an email from inside the app? That will give us a debug report so we can address the problem. Open the app, tap Settings (gear icon), then tap the Transit logo (on the right of the 3 icons), then Email Us. Thank you!

What's new

Now, you can say THANK YOU! to riders who share real-time locations via GO

- Tap any line, then tap the vehicle icon
- If real-time is being provided by a GO rider? You’ll see their GO emoji avatar on the vehicle icon
- Wanna show some gratitude? Tap “say thanks”!
- We’ll thank them on your behalf & carry them off the field on our shoulders while the whole stadium screams “WE LOVE YOU!” like in the movies

That’s it from us. Rate us five stars to spin the propeller hat to liftoff velocity
