San Jose Transit 3.0 is here! Completed redone from ground up. This new version makes it intuitive to browse through the routes and their schedules.

Features:
- Easy navigation through the UI.
- Consolidated directional routes. Sub routes won't show up as separate routes if they are all in the same direction.
- View stops and routes on map.
- See all the VTA stops around you on a Map.
- Search by zip code, address or city name.
- Add stops and routes as favorites.
- View all trips of a specific route (inbound or outbound) passing through a specific stop at any time.
- Easy schedule updates with automatic daily update checks.
- Stop time interpolation. The app shows timings for stops which don't show up on vta.org.

All the schedules are still fully offline. The maps do require internet connection though ;-)

Please report any mis timings to [email protected] or at https://github.com/jvashishtha/San-Jose-Transit/issues.

Satisfied so far...

Seems to have everything I need to plan my trip. I've had difficulty figuring out how to get around with VTA so this app is a big help


Not bad but not great

This app is simply a reproduction of VTA's website and their maps. It's good to have the info in an easily organized format but I would like more features, like using my location or entering my destination to help me find a route. Worth it for $1 to have the maps & timetables, though.


Great start!

Finally an app for VTA buses! It's like having all the bus map/schedules in your pocket. I like that it shows the next available time for the location you pick. As another reviewer mentioned, having GPS integration that brought up selections based on your location would really be a useful feature, although I'm sure that would take a lot of work for the developer to create. I do however have a few minor ideas for improvement: - List the rail lines on top, or have an instant button that brings them up. If not, at least remove the need to enter a 900 number to bring them up as there are only three lines. - The app reads as "San Jo...ansit" on my iPhone as the label is a bit too long. How about just labeling it "SJ Transit" under the icon? Speaking of icons, the compass pointer wouldn't be my choice. I'd come up with an icon showing a bus and a LRV side by side since that's what this app is for. I look forward to watching this app develop. To date it's the only app showing VTA bus lines and I'm glad someone finally took on this task.


Good Start

Its nice to have the bus schedules. If you could map your location vs the bus route it would be a lot better. For someone like me who uses buses infrequently it would be good to have the fares as well


Awesome app for VTA drivers!

I must say thaf this app is extremely helpful for bus operators themselves! We have all routes centrally located with just a touch of a finger away!


How did I live without this APP?

For many reasons, we ride VTA. All the little paper schedules were tough to manage (I always had the wrong one) and harder to read (I am legally blind) but this app makes it all easier and I enjoy taking the bus more now. Knowing when it will be leaving, especially on a cold or rainy day, is wonderous. Look carefully at the schedules, and at the top of the pages, you will find buttons for weekdays, weekends, direction the bus is going, all there to choose, don't forget to do these steps to insure your accurate timetables. You will love this app!


Great Product

I use this often to detemine a bus route to use. I can't wait until VTA will push gps coordinates so that you know the exact location of a bus


Great App
CB Who Knew??

I love this app! Does eveything I need. I usually already know where I am and what bus runs by me so a feature that picks up where I am located is nice, but superfluous! This app would transfer well to many cities public transit sys. I wish you well. Dublin Bus Ireland could do with you. Someone created one for it but not vey effective app, check it out. Thanks for creating this one.


Immensely helpful, very stable

I use VTA regularly, and this app is my primary way of looking up bus times on my usual routes. If you know where you're going, and just need to look up the bus times for your route, this is perfect. It also avoids turning on the GPS, and all the other extraneous things the default Maps app does, making it a lot more stable.


Like it, but crashing
Mr.Bake-Bake-Baker

Love this app. It gets me though my day to day, though now it just crashes upon launch, please fix?
