A Transit App for the Philly Native

Yes, this app is phenomenal for finding the best route to your destination. It will show you how to get from point A to point B. But what is under rated about this app is actually one of its strongest features in my opinion. I know what lines I need to take to get to work, or to the store. What I don’t know is where those buses or trains are. This app allows you to live track the 17 and the 2 at the same time, so I can decide which one will get me to my destination faster. Or if the next 40 or 42 intersects with the 2 route, so I know which stop I should get off on. This is a great transit app, but it’s a phenomenal tool for a Philly native who knows where they want to go and is weighing their best route options.
