Plan recurring Pro alerts from your crossing’s calendar. On iPhone Duo, find crossing types, Ports and PRO together in the native vertical toolbar.
Check border wait times before you leave. Compare lanes, save your favorite crossings, and explore hourly patterns to help plan a trip from Mexico or Canada into the United States.
TWO BORDERS, ONE LIST
• Explore Mexico–U.S. and Canada–U.S. crossings separately.
• Check 29 Canadian crossings and the available Mexican border ports.
• Keep every favorite in one Home order, regardless of country.
• Search, compare nearby crossings, and explore them on the map.
CLEAR TIMES BY LANE
• Check General, Ready Lane, SENTRI or NEXUS, pedestrian, and commercial waits.
• Spot the fastest lane and compare the current wait with the previous hour.
• If a source stops updating, Garitas avoids presenting it as live.
PLAN A BETTER TIME
• The 24-hour chart compares today with the typical pattern.
• During a holiday week, compare Now, Typical, and the same holiday last year. It is historical context, not a forecast.
TRAVEL FROM YOUR LOCATION
• In Passenger mode, see an estimated drive to a crossing’s access area where available, with precise location enabled and a matching physical country.
• Travel and border waits stay separate. Refresh the dated estimate when needed.
GARITAS PRO
• Schedule recurring alerts from a crossing’s calendar, using its local time, opening hours and chosen weekdays. Creating/editing requires Garitas Pro and notification permission.
• Follow one crossing and lane with a Live Activity on supported Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, Apple Watch and CarPlay surfaces. Requires Garitas Pro; system availability and update delivery may vary.
• Choose a lane before starting and confirm before replacing an existing Live Activity.
• Check waits and favorites, compare crossings, and find the best remaining hour with Siri and Shortcuts. Requires Garitas Pro.
• Get alerts, use Lock Screen widgets, and check favorites, detail, and complications on Apple Watch.
• Home Screen, CarPlay and StandBy widgets, maps, and statistics remain free.
• Auto-renewing annual subscription; the App Store shows the current price and any available trial before confirmation.
• Manage or cancel in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions.
BUILT FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
• XXL iPad widget with a wait table, hourly chart and best hours. Vertical XL iPhone widget on iOS 27. Home Screen widgets are free.
• In wide windows on iPad and iPhone Duo, see favorites and details side by side, with larger maps and charts. Compact crossing-type icons and readable values make the smaller sidebar easier to use.
• On iPhone Duo, use the system’s vertical toolbar for crossing types, Ports, PRO and What’s New. In a wide window, show or hide Favorites with the separate button above PRO. Calendar and alarm stay in crossing details.
• Wide iPad details align wait times and a nearby crossing in one row, travel and traffic in another, and hourly statistics below.
• Light and Dark Mode, Dynamic Type, and VoiceOver.
• English, Latin American Spanish, and Canadian French.
• No account or login required.

Thank you for taking the time to make an application that is fairly easy to navigate. I like the lay out and its nice to see someone trying to help with updates at the Mexican side of the border. You are doing a good job.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review! We’re really glad you find the app easy to navigate and that it’s been helpful for border updates, especially on the Mexican side. Your encouragement means a lot and motivates us to keep improving the app with more accurate information and new features. Thanks again for your support, and safe travels! 🚗🇲🇽🇺🇸
Bad After Updates
backasswsrds
Lately you did all kinds of updates and the app is now useless. Doesn't even show Ped West in San Ysidro. Can't use the app. What have you done? Why didn't you just leave it the way it was?? Jeeze.
Developer Response
Thank you for the honest feedback — it genuinely helps us improve. You’re right: PedWest was removed because CBP stopped publishing its wait times while it was closed. Now that it’s back, we’re restoring it in an upcoming update. Sorry for the frustration, and thanks for your patience — we’ll keep working to make the app better.
In a wide iPhone Duo window, the separate button above PRO shows or hides Favorites.
If the App Store cannot load Garitas Pro, paid features remain protected and PRO stays visible with a retry option. Existing subscribers keep their verified access.
Schedule recurring Pro alerts from a crossing’s calendar using its local time, opening hours and chosen weekdays. On iPhone Duo, crossing types, Ports, PRO and What’s New use the system’s vertical toolbar; the calendar and alarm remain in crossing details. Ordinary iPhone and iPad keep their existing controls.
Apple Watch makes lane waits, report sources and times easier to compare, with a full-day chart that separates reported and typical patterns. Colombia–Solidaridad now appears in Colombia, Nuevo León, across from Laredo, Texas. Nuevo León stays visible in Ports after adding its crossing to favorites. Favorite cards have a simpler footer without the small unlabeled graph; the full chart remains in crossing details.
