Onnikka shows you exactly where your bus is — right now, on a live map. See real-time bus positions as they move through the city, find the nearest bus stop, and check upcoming departures with live arrival estimates. Tap any bus to follow it live on the map and see every stop still ahead of it. Tap a departure at your stop to jump straight to that bus and watch it arrive. Never miss your bus. Follow it with a live countdown on your Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and on your Apple Watch, so you know exactly when to head out. Make it yours. Star your favourite stops to open them in one tap, and choose the lines you ride at each stop, so a busy stop shows only the buses you care about. Add a widget to your Home Screen or Lock Screen to see your next departures at a glance — the large widget shows two stops at once. Planning a trip? Onnikka finds the best way to get from where you are to any bus stop or address — a friend’s home, a shop, a sports field. Search for the place, and you get walking directions and any bus changes along the way, with each leg of the route color-coded so transfers are easy to follow.
