HERE’S WHAT THEY’RE SAYING
“Gives you the best route to where you want to go” - New York Times

“Killer app” - Wall Street Journal
“A one-stop-shop” - Washington Post

5 GREAT THINGS ABOUT TRANSIT

THE BEST LIVE DATA: Using the best transport agency data, GO crowdsourcing data and our in-house ETA prediction engine, we give you the most accurate info possible for all transport modes: including the Underground, Overground, buses, coaches, trains, trams, ferries, ride-hailing services like Uber and more. Prefer to travel on two wheels? See live bikeshare and e-scooter locations right on the map.

OFFLINE SUPPORT: Bus schedules, stop locations, train maps and even our journey planner are available offline. When GPS is spotty underground? Use GO and you’ll still get precise ETAs.

JOURNEY PLANNING PAR EXCELLENCE: See fast and easy trips combining buses, trains and the Tube, and even multiple modes in one journey. Personalise your travel in the settings – skip long walks or the modes you’d rather avoid.

GO NAVIGATION*: Use GO to receive departure alarms to catch your bus or train, and get live alerts and notifications when it’s time to get off or transfer. You’ll also contribute more accurate info and real-time ETAs for others – and rack up points for being the most helpful passengers on your line.

CROWDSOURCED WISDOM: See what millions of other passengers say about crowding levels, on-time performance, the best station exits, and more.

*Continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease battery life.

I can't understand the high rating of this app. The experience is horrible. I saved a couple of places as favourites, but can't find them at all when I need them. I also saved Home and Work, and again its impossible to find them when I open the app. I ended up using the functionality of finding the place on the map, and then see what available lines are in the area. Is it hard to add a shortcut to saved places on the main screen? Searching for a bus line doesn't show all available companies.

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.

Rarely have times been accurate for the one single Foothill Transit line I need this for. This app is the lone reason I've been late for work. It says x minutes until a bus arrives, then the bus never shows up, and it updates to 23 minutes. Sometimes, it says x minutes until bus arrives, but it's actually the time for the opposite direction. It's like it populates only the soonest time for whatever direction you're looking up.
