Bustime shows every bus, tram, trolleybus, train and metro on a live map using GPS from the vehicles themselves — see where your bus is right now, not where the timetable says it should be.
🧭 TRIP PLANNER FROM A TO B
• Plan public transport trips with transfers and walking directions — from an address, a stop, a map pin or your location.
• Depart now, depart at or arrive by a chosen time; filter by bus, tram, metro or train.
• Save favorite places and trips, tap "Route here" right on the map.
• 🎙 Voice search: say "bus 5" or "from Central Station to the airport".
⏱ LIVE ARRIVAL TIMES
• Real-time bus arrival times for every stop — in minutes or by the clock.
• Stop board: all arrivals at your bus stop on one screen.
• Bus timetables and schedules when there is no live data.
• Compare several routes on one screen.

🔔 NEVER MISS YOUR BUS OR YOUR STOP
• "Waiting here" — an alert when your bus approaches the stop.
• "Getting off here" — voice, sound and vibration before your stop.
• Works in the background and on the lock screen: a live notification shows the countdown to your bus.
• Off-route warning and super-vibration for those who doze off.
