OpenStop vs Live Departures

The goal of the app is to collect barrier data in public transportation with your help and make it available on OpenStreetMap so that EVERYONE can benefit from it. By asking simple questions about stops, the app enables citizens to collect data in their surroundings in an accessible way. The data shall be the foundation for better routing especially for impaired people and lead to a renovation of non accessible stops, as well as many other things we ourselves can't even imagine right now. Thank you for your contribution to better public transportation :)

You're standing at the stop and you want to know one thing: when does the next train leave? Live Departures shows exactly that. Tap a stop, see the departures. No sign-up, no ads, no ticket shop, no detours. And on the way you stay informed: delays and platform changes until you arrive. SWITZERLAND AND GERMANY IN ONE APP Most apps cover one country. This one covers both. A single tap in the menu switches between Switzerland and Germany — each with its own favourites. Across the border, too: for trains from Switzerland to Germany you see the real destination and all stops up to it. YOUR STOPS, RIGHT AT THE TOP The app remembers the stops you use, and the most recently used comes first. Pin the important ones (swipe right, up to 5): they stay at the very top and are never pushed out. Up to 12 places per country, nothing else to create or manage. WHAT YOU SEE • Line, destination and departure time in real time • Delays (!) and cancellations (X) at a glance • Track, bay or pier — depending on the mode of transport • Green dot: real-time data for this trip • Every stop in real time — tap any trip (train, S-Bahn, tram, bus), with delay, cancellation and platform change per stop • Refreshes every 60 seconds FOLLOW TRIP Follow a trip in the stop list and mark where you get off: a bar at the bottom shows arrival, platform and delay, wherever you are in the app. It updates while the app is open and closes by itself after arrival. NEARBY New city? The arrow icon finds the stops around you. THE WAY YOU LIKE IT German or English. Orange or white accent. Times as a countdown (3') or as the clock (14:32). Set once, kept for good. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING No account, no analytics, no ads. Favourites, settings and a followed trip stay on your device. DATA SOURCES Switzerland: transport.opendata.ch — every Swiss operator Germany: Transitous, a community project with the timetable data of the transport operators Both public and free. Good to know: Live Departures shows departures, not A-to-B journey planning. Live data needs an internet connection.
