Transit

Transit is a super handy new app for checking to see when the next bus, train or ferry is arriving in any capital city in Australia as well as in more than 175 cities worldwide.

Transit was only recently released and it's your real-time urban travel companion. Navigate the city’s public transit system with accurate real-time predictions, simple trip planning, step-by-step navigation, service disruption notifications, and departure and stop reminders... all presented in a clear, bold interface. Public transport not cooperating? Easily request an Uber, reserve a car2go (in certain cities), or grab the closest bike share (in certain cities).

The very cool GO feature act's like a helpful personal robot, GO thinks about your journey so you don’t have to and lets you know when your stop is coming up!
