Best app for tracking RTD bus & train times?
Why does Denvers RTD app suck so much?
Issues buying Standard day pass in RTD app
Easiest way to use public transit in Denver
When I lived in Boulder I used Transit and it worked great... the app tracked buses' live location, told me where/when to go, and gave alerts when approaching my stop. In 3 years I never once missed a bus or a stop.
But since I moved to Denver it seems to be wildly inaccurate, giving me wrong routes and timetables and not knowing where the next bus is. I'm trying Google Maps, which seems to be more accurate with locations and departures, but its alerts are horrible... I've missed my stop 2 out of 3 rides so far.
The RTD app doesn't seem to support the live tracking feature, but I'll try their Next Ride web app for a bit. What other transit apps do you recommend? Thanks!
I live in Denver with a car so have the RTD app installed but dont use it a lot. I have visited a few cities in different states and usually rely on their public transportation to get around.
I usually download the public transportation app to make travel easier. They have real time maps and live locations that are as convent and simple as the Lyft or Uber apps. Denvers seems overly complicated and almost more of a pain to use than is worth it. You can see live locations and schedules but not a simple map and click where you want to go.
Even compared to smaller cities I have been, RTD app just seems not as good.
