Halloween is done. Daylight savings is over. The baseballers have gone home for good. Yet the season of sleigh bells is not yet upon us… which means it’s time to bask in the wonderment of GOvember, a middle month for raking leaves and plowing through the leaderboards on your local buses and trains. While you’ve been busy turning public transit crowdsourcing into a gladiatorial spectator sport, we’ve been plotting our own suite of entertainments. Like any worthwhile surprise, we’re giftwrapping it in mystery and allusion. (If you’ve put the “GO” in “VERY GOOD” this year? Then it’s statistically probable you’ll enjoy what’s coming down the bus pikes and train tubes later this month ;) Also… shocker… we fixed some bugs! Talk soon. PS: rate us five stars if you remember the first words of the Power Rangers theme song

The colours are turning. The air is crisp. The Canadian turkeys are becoming increasingly paranoid. But don’t worry, gobble gang, because for this year’s Canadian Thanksgiving we’re pardoning all of Montreal’s urban wildfowl and dusting off Nana’s best tofu-rkey recipe instead… even if it always comes out a bit rubbery and burnt, bless her heart. Now onto the stuffing: - We’ve made small tweaks to how the app ranks nearby lines on the homescreen - Now: if a nearby subway station is closed? We’ll consider the closure, and show ETAs for the nearest alternative station (if it’s within a 500m walk) - Same goes for accessible stations: if you’ve prioritized step-free trips in the settings, we’ll prioritize ETAs for stations marked as “accessible” (if they’re within a 500m walk) - We’ve also added logic to remove redundant ETAs for loop routes (aka routes that go in a loop-de-doop, and make multiple stops in the same small area, but while travelling in different directions) - And if you’ve got room for leftovers? No you don’t: we removed a bunch of leftover bugs from this summer’s Transit 6.0 launch. Bug bye! Spot any new bugs? Let us know before the food coma kicks in. Rate us 5 stars to set the turkeys free.

Our summer blockbuster, Transit 6.0 — at least for blocks with lots of buses — has now made its way to a theatre near you.  Wearing your popcorn bucket on your head, you’ve raced past the ushers, pushed through the theatre exits, pulled your friend by the lapels, and they’ve done the same to you: DID YOU JUST SEE WHAT I JUST SAW!? Hopefully by now, your pupils have contracted back to their normal size, the 6.0 changes have settled in, and you’ve been adjusting well to all our latest tweaks! We’ve spent the last week combing through your emails, DMs, comments, and bug sightings, and now our post-6.0 afterparty has kicked off in earnest: - We’ve improved the contrast of stop locations in Dark Mode to account for bright lines (e.g. white, yellow, and pink ones) so you can more easily distinguish stop locations within the winding route path  - Tweaked ETA cards to more reliably scale with your OS fonts, and made it even more obvious that you can scroll to see all upcoming departures - Standardized colour handling to put a few renegade shades back in their place - Fixed a bug where Live Activities would show details from a previously planned GO trip, rather than your current GO trip - A few other miscellaneous licks of paint  More fixes for sixes are on their merry way. See ya next update! PS: rate us 5 stars if you know all too well that it’s only after your planned renovations come to an “end” that the real renovating fun can begin :’)

New decade. Same Transit. Or is it? No, you’re not hallucinating. Okay maybe you are — but it has absolutely nothing to do with our stunning new redesign! Say allô-bonjour to Transit 6.0: we’ve kept all the things about Transit that make your heart purr with contentment, then tapped our magic conductor’s wand on all the parts that needed refreshment, like: * Puffin: our bubblicious new typeface. (If penguins could fly, they’d write their memoirs in Puffin.) * New feng shui: things now feel more organized, colourful, bigger, bolder, better. * ETA cards: the information you care about the most (departure times!!!!) now stand out in a BIG way * Better night vision for your midnight rides: thanks to our all-new, deliciously darker Dark Mode We’ve gushed about the new changes on our website. Peep it here: transitapp.com/whatsnew/six-o …but really, the proof is in the Puffin. Try out 6.0, let your eyes adjust, and tell us what you think. Yours the same but better, Transit PS: rate us 6.0 stars if our newest update has given you a new favourite pelagic seabird

Is it summer? No. But it’s palpably close. Queues have started forming at the ice cream shop next to the office, our SPF 100 sunscreen is back in the tote bag, and we’ve finally bid adieu to the toe warmers we’ve packed in our bike shoes all spring long. Now that the ides of March (and April… and May…) are thankfully behind us, the seeds of a very busy spring at Transit HQ are now bearing big juicy mangos for you to behold: - Bike. Transit. Bike. That’s right: the moment you’ve been waiting for… and sending us many polite DMs about… has finally arrived: you can now plan multimodal transit trips that include your personal bike on BOTH SIDES of a transit trip, not just one. - (If you’re more of a “park and ride” multimodal biker? You can swap double-ended bike trip suggestions for one-way bike trips in the settings.) - Thanks to our dev Quan for helping us set a speed record on Strava for Lionel-Groulx to Jean-Talon! Just kidding, we would never… - Bonjour, AutoGO! We’ve been slow-rolling this one, so you may have seen this in the wild… but we’re now able to match you to transit vehicles *as soon as you open the app* mid-bus ride - What does this mean? It means you can now start a GO trip in a single tap, without having to first plan a trip or manually select a line - Thanks to AutoGO, we’re now getting a boost in GO trips started (over 1M trips auto-detected so far!) which helps us improve your city’s real-time data  - Big kudos for our data science magicians, Marisa, Quentin, and Ayser, for all their brilliant work on this - Curious how GO’s making your city’s real-time data better? We got a new bloggity-blog all about it: blog.transit.app/autogo - Lastly, we just launched our 900th supported city, ooh yeah - Hello Guadeloupe, Réunion, and a few other hamlets and shires - Un gros merci to our transit analysts: Brody, Derek, Elijah, Marco, Sara, Tim, plus our recently-returned veteran DJ Nic for bringing Transit to more and more places, faster than ever before - (We hope you have the breath capacity for the number of candles you’re gonna have to blow out at the next Transit office party!) - Anything else? Yes. Something big. Something huge. We’ll give you half-a-dozen guesses but we’ll only be able to do the big reveal in August… Rate us five stars if you love cliffhanger release notes.

Whether you’re rowing the Danube, piloting your bicycle down the Carpathian Mountains, or basking in the Black Sea sun this summer, we’ve got you covered. Hei, Romania! Dust off your Cartarescu paperbacks and gaze longingly out of your train (and bus) windows as you traipse from Bucharest to Buzau, the Transylvanian capital Cluj, sea-scented Constanta, or picturesque Sinaia where the regal brown bears dart between castles. Besides teaching our app to speak Romanian, we’ve been gluing patches onto our data pipelines and making other requisite fixes, but mostly throwing the bulk of our brainpower at a late summer project that will set your sixth senses afire. Whatever do we mean? Rate us five stars if you love vague hints of great things to come…

G’day! We’re revvin' up the Rockies and splashing down in the Mississippi, sprinkling free Royale on the bus-riding realms of SMART (in Telluride, Colorado) and MTU (in La Crosse, Wisconsin). What else? - We fixed a bug where very late ETAs were disappearing if your trip was running more than 15 minutes behind - You were more likely to experience issues if your stop was near the end of the line (where all the delays at preceding stops can add up!) - Thanks to our friends at the MTA in Baltimore for sleuthing this one out - If you've recently been wondering “why in tarnation did that bus disappear?!”, now you know. Bug is fixed! Nothing else for now. But more to come… very, very soon… Ciao! PS: rate us 5 stars to make the spring in your step extra springier today

Here in Canada, spring hath sprung. (Okay, maybe not in Winnipeg and Calgary.) But it’s slowly making its way northward and inland, gagging us with its wonderful smell and turning city after city into a lake of melted snowmen. As we swap our wool socks for jean shorts and crop tops, we’ve been busy as ever at Transit HQ: - In our quest to make it ever-easier for you to know “how do I pay for this bus or train?”, we’ve added contactless fare info into the app - Does your transit agency let you tap your credit card (or phone) to pay? How much does a single fare cost? We’ll now let you know (in cities where the data’s available) What else? - Our designer Béa added a rainbow road’s worth of prideful icons to the app, to make your homescreen more certifiably fabulous (for Royale subscribers) - …she also replaced the default loading screen with something delightfully darker when you launch the app in dark mode (for everyone — go check!) - Our data analyst Derek added a ton of ski bus feeds in the French Alps and Rockies, to make your next alpine adventure a little less car-dependent (too many feeds to list here, check transit.app/blog if you’re curious) - New transit agency partners are offering riders free Royale in Minneapolis-Saint Paul (thanks Metro Transit!), the Coachella Valley (SunLine!), Tampa (HART!), Brantford (Brantford Transit!), Wenatchee (Link Transit!), and Champaign-Urbana (MTD!) - Enough bug fixes to turn the Chicago River green again See you next update.
