Transportr
Public transport trips in your city, from an app that asks for nothing.
Instead of Google Maps transit
Screenshot from transportr.app, taken 2026-10-23, shown to help you recognise the tool. It belongs to its maker. Ask us to remove it.
Transportr plans journeys on buses, trams and trains using the public data that transit operators publish, and it is open source and ad-free. It works with a long list of regions, and coverage depends on your city.
It runs on Android only, and a volunteer team keeps it going, so Longevity is a 3.
- Plans public transport trips with no account or ads
- Covers many cities through operators' open data
- Android only
