Know exactly when to leave. Pendli puts your next tram, bus, train, and boat departures on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with a live countdown that updates in real time — delays included. No more refreshing a timetable on the platform. Pick a stop on the map, choose the exact lines and directions you care about, and Pendli does the rest. When you're near your stop during your active hours, the Live Activity starts on its own. WHY PENDLI • Live Activities on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island — a real-time countdown to each departure • Real-time delays included, where the data source provides them • Monitor several stops at once, each with its own lines and hours • Starts automatically when you're nearby during your active hours — or keep a stop always on • Explore mode: browse any stop on the map, see every line it serves and each line's upcoming stops • Glanceable and out of your way WORKS WHERE YOU DO • Switzerland: trains, trams, buses, and boats • Worldwide: wherever Transitous has data • Available in English, Italiano, Deutsch, and Français DATA SOURCES • Swiss timetables and real-time data: transport.opendata.ch (https://transport.opendata.ch), an open API run by Opendata.ch • Worldwide: Transitous (https://transitous.org), an open community transit service • Official source of Swiss public-transport data: the open data platform of the Swiss Federal Office of Transport, https://opentransportdata.swiss (Federal Office of Transport: https://www.bav.admin.ch/en) DISCLAIMER Pendli is an independent app and does not represent any government entity.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tourasia at none against Pendli's 3. Pendli's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
