What's New in Pittsburgh PRT Transit

2026.9.1

September 1, 2026

Hey, it's been a while! We've been busy over the summer months on making our systems faster and better. You should find that most departure boards now just appear instantly. Like, faster than the blink of an eye. When we first got this up and running we just kept tapping and tapping on stops and stations on the map, marvelling at the speed. When you're running for that bus, every seconds counts, right? Of course, we're fixing a bunch of small bug fixes in this release as well, especially around alarms and live notifications, so we hope you're able to get the most out of them. More to come in the next release. See you then!

ALL ABOUT THE MONEY AND ONLY THE MONEY

Downloaded , noticed they want you to pay monthly for a subscription TO TELL ME WHEN A BUS WILL ARRIVE ? PLEASE !! Immediately deleted. The cheapest membership is $30/month , a pure joke .

Three Stars

You have to pay for so much of it and sometimes the times are wrong on the times when the bus comes but otherwise it’s a good app, i use the free version because you have to pay if u want more routes and stuff and i don’t feel like doing that.

Pay for the app?

The transit app has become difficult to use with trying to catch a PRT vehicle so I figured PRT would have an app. They want to CHARGE for it. PRT is completely unreliable on the red line and 82. Buses and trains just don’t show up. Now they want to charge for their app to show “true” times since their schedules are meaningless. I’ve been riding these buses and trains for over 50 years. Service has never been worse!!! They want to charge for this app to use their service that we already pay for. RIDICULOUS!!! Get it together PRT and actually provide good reliable service to the Greater Pittsburgh area. You are missing the mark by a long shot!

Complete trash

This app forces a trial subscription down your throat despite my best efforts to avoid it, it can't do basic things like look up stations (just sits there loading forever), it can't differentiate between routes (for example it thinks there's a single 87 route; it's unaware it's split into 87M and 87S). It sends random information to my apple watch without me requesting it, it's deceitfully named to look as if it was the official (free) app, then it begs me to rate it after 2 minutes of using it. This for the low price of $90 or $8/month forever. Just utter garbage.

Poor design and clear cash grab

The app design is clunky especially with regards to where alerts are, there’s better apps for the same cost or less, additionally the name is too on the nose and makes people think this app is official from the transit agency when it clearly is NOT
