New: instant departure boards, better route maps and train journey tracking
INSTANT DEPARTURE BOARDS
If you're like us, you might have a couple of favourite buses in the morning - each going from different stops. It was a pain tapping one stop, tapping its bubble, looking at a departure board, then coming back to the map and doing the same again and again.
So we've made it easier. Tap on a stop or station on the map and we'll show you the name of the stop, the routes that stop there and the next five departures. If you want to see further into the future, just tap on the bubble to bring up the full departure board. Easy!
BETTER ROUTE MAPS
In the list view, we'll show you all connections at each stop - colour-coded to make life easier.
NEW TRAIN JOURNEY TRACKING
We've re-engineered train times - just tap on a train departure to bring up a nice, easy-to-follow list with a moving train icon.
Finally... if you can spare a moment, and you like this app, help us out and leave a review on the App Store. It helps other people find the app and helps fund future development. Thanks!

Move your favourites, watch buses as they move, alarms and of course a few bug fixes!
WATCH BUSES ON A MAP
A UK first - we worked out the approximate location of each bus in the UK at this exact moment, and we place them on a map. Just tap on any departure to see where the bus is in relation to you. This is pretty new and experimental – so if you see something that isn’t right, let us know and we’ll fix it.
ALARMS
Tap on any departure to bring up a list of stops that bus or train will arrive at – you can also set an alarm for each stop. Once you approach that stop, you’ll get an alert on your phone in time to get ready to leave – perfect for late night naps!
Also, each timetable now has alarms – just tap on a time and we’ll send you an alert 15 minutes and 5 minutes before the bus arrives at that time. On a night out? Just set an alarm and sit back knowing you’ll be notified long before the last bus of the night.
