Awful

What happened to the old NextBus app? This app is horrible. All I wanna know is when the next Van Ness to market Street buses coming and it won’t get me past Geary Street no matter how hard I try you can’t back to lead Gary and put in market. What is wrong with these people? Would you make such an awful app? All the other apps are so confusing maps everywhere you don’t know where you’re at it’s ridiculous. If Muni created this app they did an awful job. Hire a real programmer give us back next bus.

Not intuitive

I purchased a 3-day pass through the app and had no idea how to actually use it. I ended up paying for transit everywhere I went

Complains of clock settings

On first ticket purchase it says my time settings are wrong. They are not. What gives.

Map not reliable

The map shows busses that are scheduled to run, not real live data. I was standing at the bus stop 7 minutes early, watched the bus on the map pass me but nothing approached in real life. The icon was moving down the street and pausing at stops despite there not being a bus.

Poor design

Lousy app, never accepts payments constantly having to update or erase & reload, bus it is SF & Muni so figure it will suck

FAQ

What does the MuniMobile app do?

The MuniMobile app is the official trip planning and mobile ticketing solution for the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA). It allows users to plan their journeys on the Muni transit network and purchase fares and passes directly on their smartphones.

How do I buy tickets with MuniMobile?

To buy tickets, you first choose your rider type (Adult, Senior, Youth, etc.), then select the fare you need (single trip, cable car ride, or passport). You can then choose the quantity of tickets and proceed to checkout, where you can pay using a debit/credit card, PayPal, or Apple Pay.

Is the MuniMobile app free to use?

Yes, the MuniMobile app is free to download and use. The app itself does not have any costs associated with it. You only pay for the transit fares and passes you purchase through the app.

Do I need an internet connection to use my tickets?

A cellular network or wireless internet connection is required to purchase tickets. However, once purchased, your tickets can be used and activated offline, meaning you do not need an internet connection to board transit or enter the subway.

What happens if my phone battery dies?

Similar to paper tickets, users are responsible for ensuring they have a valid fare at all times. It is recommended to monitor your phone's battery level and plan accordingly to avoid issues, especially when needing to show an active ticket.
