Catch helps you ride public transit with less stress. Find your route, see upcoming departures, and check reports from other riders along the way. Whether you're commuting or exploring a new city, know when to leave and what to expect. REPORTS FROM OTHER RIDERS Harassment, aggressive behavior, or a crash. See what people have reported at nearby stops and on transit. Share what you notice to help the next rider. Confirm that a report is still relevant, or let others know the situation has cleared. DEPARTURES AND TRIP PLANNING See what's leaving from nearby stops and how much time you have. Find a route by bus, subway, tram, or train, with each part of your trip and your transfers laid out clearly. Save home, work, or another favorite place to plan your next trip in a tap. Where live data is available, check delays and vehicle locations too. HOW OTHER RIDERS FEEL See places where people feel uneasy and understand why, from poor lighting to isolated surroundings or difficult access to a stop. Add your own experience to the safety map and give other riders more context before they set off. SHARE YOUR TRIP Let family and friends see where you are and where you're headed. You choose who to share with and for how long. Sharing is temporary. Meeting up? Catch can find a route straight to a friend who is sharing their location with you. DEPARTURES AT A GLANCE Keep upcoming departures close at hand with Home Screen widgets, Live Activities on your Lock Screen, and Apple Watch. A quick glance is all it takes when you're walking to your stop. AT HOME AND AWAY Catch is available in Czechia, Germany, Sweden, and Switzerland, as well as New York City, Chicago, and San Francisco. Use the same familiar app for everyday trips and time away. Live departure information and vehicle locations depend on local data. When live data isn't available, Catch uses scheduled times. FREE, WITH MORE IN CATCH PLUS Core departures, trip planning, rider reports, the safety map, and sharing with loved ones are free. Catch Plus gives you more departures, additional route options, and extended views in widgets, Live Activities, and on Apple Watch. Share your subscription through Apple Family Sharing. We ride public transit every day. We're building Catch to make getting around easier, so you can focus on the people and things you're going there for.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iRIS at none against Catch's 12. iRIS also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Catch's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
