Welcome Sydney and New South Wales

Set your cars on fire: Transit App has just expanded to Australia

You’re in for a treat this morning. New South Wales’ ridiculously handsome Transport Minister, Andrew Constance, just announced that Australian cities have gained access to Transit App. That’s right: residents of every single city in New South Wales — from Wagga Wagga to Dubbo — can now commute like kings and queens. Of course, it wouldn’t have been possible without months of tireless research on Australia’s transport system.

We know what you’re thinking: “Who are these punks?” We’re Transit App, the ridiculously handsome app for urban transport that makes getting around your city ridiculously simple. We think too many navigation apps are cluttered with gratuitous buttons, settings, and choices, so we’ve designed and refined our app around the single most essential piece of information for the daily commute: your next departure. Right on launch, we present nearby transport options and departure times in big text and bright colours — no taps required.

Hey Sydneysiders: This is what the home screen of the app looks like in your city.

Oh what? That’s not enough? Well, let’s look under the hood. We’re not shy.

Transit App offers the whole shebang — including a-to-b journey planning, an industry-leading Uber integration, and timely delivery of service disruptions — but its heart and soul is the commuter-focused design.

It’s for this reason that we are the most popular public transport app in North America, and why fancy people like the Wall Street Journal highlighted us a ‘killer app’, Apple featured us in their Design Guidelines, and Toronto’s transit riders voted us the city’s best transport app.
