I use this app extensively when I visit Chicago and it gets me from Point A to Point B.

Thanks for the review :-)
Good but could be better
Tallahassee traveler
I was new to Chicago. I used the L to get around to all the touristy sites. I really like the trip planner and the easy to follow stop designations on the Application. I liked how i could say I was at Grand Station and then chose a location like Wrigley Park, as a desired location i needed the CTA to get me to. However it would have been nice to have a way to see the cross streets laid on a map, beneath the L stops. I had to open a normal tourist map on one page, and then ur CTA application on another, to figure out where i needed to be. Maybe i just missed this feature, but if not, it would be a good idea for a future tweak.
Outdated
Stephen Hanafin
At the time of writing, this app hasn’t been updated in about 3 years, so it doesn’t know about changes to the CTA, like the new Washington/Wabash station. Otherwise it works perfectly fine.
App is terrible
Soap Guy
The Uber app and Google maps give much better directions. This app produced an absolutely ridiculous route to my destination.
