What's New in Pittsburgh PRT Transit

2026.11.2

October 26, 2026

New in this release: support for iPhone Duo, taking advantage of all the ways to use it. Now you can set a destination and keep an eye on your journey while scrolling through your feeds with Split View, and the app works great when the Duo is unfolded, with a large, expansive map view giving you lots of room to explore connections and alternative routes. Of course we wouldn't leave everyone else out: this release includes a number of small improvements, especially around iPad support, VoiceOver improvements and right-to-left languages like Japanese and Arabic. While many of you love the new design for iOS 27, there's one thing everyone agreed on: the horizontally-scrolling list on the route map was really hard to use, and made switching routes difficult. We heard you, and we've changed it to make it a lot easier to switch directions in a route map. Until next time, happy travels!

This is a lousy app

The app is really bad. I had two errands to run and the doctors appointment. The boss that came through even though I looked at the app left 15 minutes early. The next bus supposed to come, and I sat there and let some other buses have required, came 19 minutes late so I had to take an Uber from my destination to my doctors appointment. Then when I left there, the app showed me the wrong side of the street so I’m sitting at the end of the bus line and this is not the first time it happened it that night. I can’t see very well and I am so tired of being with lead by this app and Google maps which is terrible and Apple Maps

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.
