When the next bus or train is due
The app shows your current location with the blue dot.
1. Tap on the nearest stop, or on the stop you want to catch your service from. This will show you any alerts and the next services due there
2. Tap on the Star to make stop a favourite for quick access next time you want to catch a bus or train from that stop
Tracking your bus or train
1. Tap the service you're waiting for, and a blue dot with an arrow on it will appear, showing where the vehicle is
Note: If there are minutes counting down next to your bus or train (e.g. "18e Karori - 3 mins"), then it's tracking. If it's only showing a time (e.g. "18e Karori - 3:57pm"), then the bus or train is not tracking. This may be due to the vehicle not having started its journey yet.
