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.

App is good, helpful. 3 features would make it 5-star: - Allow setting a default start location (more useful to see my morning PnR spot than my home) - Allow display of multiple pinned route buses on main map (helps see if I need to run or not) - Allow "go" when already on the bus, instead of only before the bus arrives (the app location isn't always accurate, and occasionally I'm already aboard before the app updates) Edit: dropping to 2 stars for lack of response

It's a pretty good app and often works better than google maps for buses (as it should), but it isn't perfect. My #1 recommendation is to allow the user to manually change what bus route they're on. Sometimes it will ask you but other times it will just be incorrect and you can't do anything about it. This would also help with the accuracy of departure times.

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.
