5 GREAT THINGS ABOUT TRANSIT:

2) TRAVEL OFFLINE
Bus schedules, stop locations, subway maps and even our trip planner are available offline.

3) POWERFUL TRIP PLANNING

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.

It's a solid app, and I've used it during travel pretty reliably. It can take some getting used to when you first use it but it's solid. The only issue that I have in particular is relatively localized, and that is for Toledo's TARTA schedule, the holiday schedules show up as a regular weekday schedule, and has causes a pretty big wrench in plans. Aside from that, I can't really complain.

I am editing my review - not updating my score - because I had to switch back once Moovit started charging for access to live tracking of buses. Because I had to switch back though, I thought I'd give some feedback to the developer: We (the consumers) cannot keep paying subscriptions. It is not sustainable for normal people. I understand that you have to make your mint, but just charge a flat fee to purchase the full features of the app and make it a reliable app. It's infuriating. That is all.

We understand it can be frustrating that we’re asking people to subscribe for certain features. Royale helps sustain Transit. Even without Royale, you can plan A-to-B trips, pin your favourite lines and move the map to see additional lines. You can visit our announcement page at transitapp.com/royale or email us at royalereview@transitapp.com.

This is a good app. If there was a reasonable one time fee for purchasing it, I would buy it right away., but I am not as keen on subscriptions. I do not want to be nickel and dimed in a monthly subscription, but I would consider an annual subscription. Not only a problem with this app, but it is not easy to find out the subscription prices. That is a problem with Google and with the app developers. I'm not clicking to try to free before I see upfront what the fees are after the trial is over.

What's new

Our release notes writer is taking some time off. Before leaving, he texted every Transit employee an inscrutable hyperlink.

Turns out it’s no phishing scam: it’s a map of our bard’s bagel-fueled bike trip, coast-to-coast across the USA. Hopefully his bike experience comes in handy for next release notes…

Transit writer? More like bike rider amirite ha ha come back soon we are not very good at writing these without you

Also, bug fixes.
