Know when your metro, train, tram or bus is really coming. Transporta'm shows live departures across Barcelona and Catalonia, with the minutes of delay and the platform for every train, and the estimated position of each vehicle on a live map. Whether you live here or you're in town for a few days, it answers the questions that matter on the platform: is my train late, where is it now and is my line running today? WHAT YOU GET • Next departures with live times for Rodalies, FGC, the Barcelona metro, TRAM and buses • Minutes of delay and platform for each train • Your train, metro, tram or bus on a live map • Service status and alerts by line, so strikes and incidents don't catch you out • Stop search by name or stop code, with your favourite stops one tap away • Share a journey with a link that opens without the app • Occupancy, accessibility and vehicle type when the source provides them • Shared bikes: Bicing, AMBici and Ganxeta (Reus), with mechanical and electric bikes and free docks • Free spaces at Bicibox bike parking • Offline data for when your signal drops LINES AND DESTINATIONS Barcelona metro L1 to L11 and the Montjuïc funicular.

FREE, OR GO PRO Transporta'm is free to use, with ads. Pro removes the ads, follows your journey on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and alerts you when your train, tram or bus leaves its first stop and when it reaches yours. Transporta'm doesn't sell tickets or plan routes, and it doesn't cover long-distance or high-speed trains, airport express buses or intercity coaches. Transporta'm is an independent app: it does not represent or belong to any public authority or transport operator. Its information comes from the open data of Renfe, TMB, FGC, TRAM, AMB and other operators.
