## What is MetraNow?

See your next Metra train at a glance.

MetraNow is a fast, focused companion for Chicago Metra commuters. Save your commute once and open the app to an instant countdown to your next few trains, with live delay information pulled straight from Metra's real-time feed.

FEATURES
• Real-time departures with live delay alerts
• Save your commute — line, origin, and destination — for one-tap access
• Add multiple commutes and swap direction for the return trip
• Interactive line diagram showing live train positions along your route
• A clear warning when Metra's data is running behind
• Full light and dark mode, tuned for early-morning and late-night commutes
• Offline schedule caching with automatic refresh every 30 seconds
• All 11 Metra lines, color-coded to match Metra

PRIVACY FIRST
No accounts. No tracking. No data collection. MetraNow doesn't ask you to sign in and doesn't gather any personal information.

Built natively with SwiftUI for iPhone. Works on iOS 17 and later.
