Also I think something is funky with the trip planning function. I took the bus to the pharmacy, thinking it'd be easy since it's close but instead it was a 2 transfer 1 hour trip there. Then I get there and notice a nearby stop for one of the lines that is right near me! This trip should've been no transfers and much shorter. ### 5/5 — 👍👍👍👍👍 *2021-10-05, version 12.4.2* Very good looking, way better then all of the other apps in my opinion. Edit: Thanks for that, figured it out now **Developer response:** Thank you! To bookmark a transit stop, when you view a transit stop, tap the SHARE button in the upper right. It looks like a box with an arrow pointing up. You will see another view slide up and you should find the Bookmark button there. Bookmarks sync across your devices so it should be available on PDX Transit for watchOS and macOS. Hope this helps. ### 2/5 — Needs Work *2021-01-23* The trip planner at Trimet's website and PDX Transit both told me to get the #57 bus at the same stop, at the same time. Here's the difference: Unlike Trimet, PDX Transit did not mention the #88 bus which is much closer to my home and which connects with the #57 bus. Trimet's instructions told me where the stops are and when to leave the house. PDX Transit only showed the bus-stop-departure and destination-arrival times for the above-mentioned #57 bus and the one before it. **Developer response:** All information that displays in PDX Transit comes directly from Trimet, including the directions in the Trip Planner. ### 2/5 — This app isn't for the entire metro area, just inner city Portland. *2020-04-18* App would be better called "Almost Trimet" Doesn't include C-Tran, the SAM, or other public transit (bus) services that serve the metro area ### 1/5 — Almost... Maybe *2019-10-31* The app is missing the mark. Maybe it’s a big, I’ll try again in a month. Unfortunately, as it is now the app is unusable; when I search routes from the MAX station access the street from my house the ONLY routes I get are way wrong. The app tells me to walk 0.05mile to the first stop (good start) but the first stop turns out to be a Bus Stop 4.9 miles away. ### 5/5 — Nicest and best looking PDX Transit app *2018-10-18* This is by far the nicest looking PDX transit app, and it does everything I need and then some. As an Apple Watch owner, I love the quick and focused watch actions. Thanks for this app! Now I finally enjoy getting Max schedule information!! ### 5/5 — Simple yet elegant *2018-10-17* I love this app compared to the other trumpet app. This one is so nice to look at compared to the other one that’s UI is all over the place with no color theme. This one is nice and neat and easy to use I love it ### 5/5 — Best transit app for Portland area *2017-01-17* I have tried all the apps that assist with using mass transit in portland and this one works the best for me. It is fast and simple to use along with having a great watch app. I highly recommend giving this app a try! ### 1/5 — Error *2016-12-16* I don't know if the previous version worked but this version is terrible. The location of trimet/streetcar is accurate and useful but if you're planning your trip, try another app. The search option is nice but when selecting it to plan your trip, you'll get errors stating that the location is "uncertain". I even tried playing around with the address to no avail. Bummer. **Developer response:** Hello. Is this still an issue with 7.1? You can either use an address including the city (e.g. 1234 SE Any Street Blvd. Portland) or a bus stop ID such as "4441." Give that a try and let me know how it goes. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Extremely fast and well designed! *2016-05-02* One mild complaint: I can't rename bookmarks. Other than that, it's the best PDX transit app out there. ## Frequently asked questions about PDX Transit (Classic) ### What is the current rating for PDX Transit?
