Transit: Real-Time Transit App

Transit: Real-Time Transit App is an award-winning urban navigator that provides comprehensive information on buses, trains, subway, bike-share, and many other city facilities in real time. It supports over 200 cities around the globe and keeps growing. You can download Transit: Real-Time Transit App for Android on Play Market and App Store for iOS.

Functionality – 5/5

Transit: Real-Time Transit App latest version is a source of the freshest data about public transports schedules. You can use it to plan the fastest trip both online and offline. The system cooperates with public transport establishments, so you can receive notifications about schedule disruptions to get a VIA, Uber, or Lyft in time. All three are integrated into Transit.

Design – 5/5

Transit has one of the most decluttered interfaces amongst all navigation apps on the market. It’s clean, neat, and easy to learn without tips. The integration of multiple services feels very natural because you don’t have to switch between apps at all. Log in once and go. Google-powered maps work just perfect as well.

Usability – 5/5

We made this Transit: Real-Time Transit App review in Houston, so we had an opportunity to test the majority of features alive. Let’s play the most common scenario. You wake up and build a route while having breakfast. Select your destination, and the app will show the fastest way, including bus or subway arrival times, and possible traffic jams that may slow you down. Predictions are usually reliable, but all public transport except the subway may fail to come in time, so personal experience is close to necessary in busy downtowns. However, in most cases, you will get an alarm about changes in advance. To avoid being late, register in local bike-share services or get a taxi right from the app.

Cross-platform use – 5/5

You can install Transit: Real-Time Transit App on Android 5.0, iOS 10.0, and all later editions. Compatibility may also vary on some devices. The app works offline, but you won’t receive traffic alerts if you’re offline. There’s no PC client, so you have to make everything from your mobile device.

In-app purchases

All features of the app are available by default for free. If you call a taxi service via the app, you don’t have to pay any commission. Map packs for all cities are also open for free downloading.

The Bottom Line

Transit: Real-Time Transit App is the best companion for busy city commuters.

The full list of supported locations is available on the official web site of the app.
