MBTA Go — Official 4+

As the MBTA creaks back to life, I love seeing a project like this: quick, easy visualization of what transit is available nearby and how long head times are for the next train or bus. If they somehow integrated with BlueBikes, too, it would be completely one-stop, but as it stands a great addition for Boston residents and visitors.

Using MBTA’s system, this app is by far the most accurate at displaying things like Train times (especially for underground stops that most apps get inaccurate). Bus tracking is very accurate as well. This could be me daily driver if it didn’t have random issues that make it impossible to load and with the expansion of more features like route suggestions and travel. With some work this could be the best go-to mass transit app but until then I’ll have to keep switching between this and Transit App. Thank you for trying to seriously make an app for this though because it was missing in the mbta app lineup.

Still has a lot of work to do to catch up to Transit and other apps, but if you just want your favorite stop’s next bus/train, or want to compare different transit options, it is pretty solid.

Some stuff it is missing: directions, trips very far in future (next day).

Now that Transit went to their Freemium model and nerfed several great features, this makes up for some of what is lost. For example, being able to move around the map and see time of arrival for multiple stops.
