Navigo is an offline-first campus transit app built for Wits University students. Plan your shuttle journey across campus, check nearby departures, set reminders before your bus leaves, and stay informed about service alerts — even when your signal is weak or unavailable. What you can do: • Plan Wits shuttle journeys Find a route from where you are to where you need to be. Compare options by fastest trip, less walking, or fewer transfers. • Use the app offline Routes, timetables and stop information are stored on your phone, so key journey planning features continue to work without an internet connection. • Check nearby departures Open the app to find the closest stops near you and see upcoming departures, sorted by walking distance and timing. • Set smart reminders Choose how many minutes before departure you want to be reminded, so you can leave on time and avoid missing your bus. • View service alerts Receive updates about delays, disruptions or important campus transport notices through clear in-app alerts and notifications. • Follow your route on the map View your selected journey on the map with bus routes, walking paths and a stop-by-stop timeline. • Use Campus Lost and Found Post lost items with a photo or browse items that other students have found. • Contact campus security quickly Access campus security from your dashboard when you need help. How it works: 1. Sign in with your Wits student number and confirm the one-time code sent to your student email. 2. Choose where you want to go and whether you are leaving now, leaving later, or arriving by a specific time. 3. Compare your route options and view the full journey on the map. 4. Set a reminder and catch your shuttle with more confidence. Navigo is designed to make Wits campus travel simpler, safer and more reliable. The app is free to use, with no ads or hidden costs. Plan smarter. Walk less. Never miss the campus bus again.
