transit app

Bus schedule checker

A transit app is a smartphone application that provides information about public transportation—bus and train schedules, routes, real-time arrival times, and trip planning.

Most cities have official transit apps, though third-party apps like Transit and Citymapper often work across multiple transit systems: The transit app says the next bus is eight minutes away.
