## What is Vapio İstanbul?

Vapio shows you what is actually moving in İstanbul right now.

LIVE, NOT A GUESS
Buses report their own positions, and Vapio draws them on the map as they move.
The number at the top tells you how many vehicles are reporting inside the area
you are looking at. When a line has nothing live, Vapio says so and falls back to
the timetable instead of leaving you with an empty screen.

SHOULD YOU RUN?
Open a stop and the first thing you see is the next departure: which line, heading
where, and how fresh that estimate is. Green comes from a real vehicle. Grey comes
from the schedule. You always know which one you are reading.

EVERY LINE IN THE CITY
Bus, metro, Marmaray, Metrobüs, tram, funicular and ferry. Search a line by number
and see how many vehicles are on the road at this moment, both directions, drawn
end to end on the map.

TRIPS THAT WORK WITHOUT A SIGNAL
Journey planning runs on your phone, so results appear with no waiting and keep
working underground or when the network drops. Live arrival times need a
connection; everything else does not.

YOUR STOPS, ALWAYS READY
Save the stops you use and they sit on the map showing the next departure, each on
a twenty-minute rail so you can see the gaps before you leave the house.

FOLLOW ONE BUS
Picked the vehicle you want? Track it. The map follows it and, on iOS, a card on
your lock screen tells you how far away it is without unlocking your phone.

DISRUPTIONS, WITHOUT THE NOISE
İstanbul produces hundreds of service notices a day. Vapio folds them into a short
summary and tells you separately when a line you saved is affected.

FIVE LANGUAGES
English, Türkçe, 简体中文, 繁體中文 and العربية.

NO ACCOUNT NEEDED
Everything works without signing in. Sign in only if you want your saved stops and
lines on a new phone, or a reply to your feedback.

Vapio is built by an independent developer. There is no advertising and no
analytics code in the app — journey planning happens on your device, so we never
see where you are going.
