Depot: Chicago CTA and Divvy

I've been using Depot for a few years now, and it's still hands-down the best app for people who know where they're going but just want arrival times. I've built a set of widgets on the home screen that can let me decide what route home will be best at a glance. However it would be even better if there was better support for monitoring a stop without the app open. The ongoing notification is OK, but it's not quick to launch say from a widget. And though it shows on a Wear watch it seems to not update accordingly. I'm only rating this 4 stars now because it seems Android 7's notification system now kills the notification entirely after a couple minutes. I tried overriding the priority and battery optimizations to no avail. Hopefully there's an easy fix!

Love the app, but lately it's not showing arrival times for buses, just saying no buses in next 30 minutes, when there are some coming which show on the map view. Also, some stops are missing completely, like the westbound 77 stop at Belmont and Sheffield.

Absolutely fantastic. Would love to see a saved stops widget that allows multiple stops to be shown, even if just shortcuts.

I can't seem to find the stops on the north side of UIC for 7 bus on the list

I've been using this app for two years now I rely on it a lot, and it super easy to figure out and organize stops

Great up would be nice to see in the future pace and Metra included.

Better than text on sign its the ONLY APP I USE THANKS CTA RTA

Great app!

Da best and on time

Very reliable

...and easy to use.

Definitely one of the good ones out there if not the best. Love the feature to save frequent stops and the nearby stops feature.

Having problems with the widget. When I add a widget to the home screen and tap it, I get a "Network error" message

Always accurate and easy to use!

The widgets leave a lot to be desired though

Great

I love the widget

Is excellent thank you

Best app for the CTA. Very well done with some nice extras. To the dev: can you make it so the train stations only show one way vs both? Thanks

Only thing I wish it had was the ability to detect the train or bus that you are currently on. Thanks for adding the dark theme!

Really the best app for anyone who uses the CTA. Way better than navigating the CTA website. Keeps getting better.

Ive used 3 or 4 other tracker apps this one by far takes the cake in my book Play With It!!! Its easy to use...You can Customize what screen it opens to, save frequently used train/bus routes, use widgets, check connecting bus/train

Impressive, to say the least. Fast, accurate and intuitive. Well done!

It provides accurate times. When not using nearby locations only, can be difficult to find the stuff that you want based on which name comes first

I really appreciate this app, it is so important for all commuters

For me, this is the best I've used.

Saved stops, CTA alerts, due time, map to view buses and trains, estimated time to a stop.... Perfect.

Perfect app

I use it daily and rely on it heavily. Only a couple times have the schedule was off. Definitely recommend

Depot is great, the interface is clean and easy to use. With a little more use, I'll most likely contribute and buy the app.

best cta app I could find by far

The interface is fairly simple to navigate and the bus/train mapping feature is spot-on. Better than several other apps, including the pay ones.

Works great, every time.

I switched to a new phone and I'm no longer getting the Premium features. Please fix.

Does the job. Nice material design.

This is probably the best-looking CTA tracker on the Play Store, but it lacks some features that others have. One of the most frustrating things is that it only shows arrivals at a stop for the line you choose. This is insufficient in the event of, for example, a reroute where Brown Lines use the subway (e.g. this weekend). I can't see any Brown Line arrivals at Jackson in the app or on the widget. FastTimes shows all arrivals regardless of color (including Orange lines at Fullerton which happens daily).

This is the best CTA app I've used. It has a slick design and the user interface is really intuitive. I especially like the ability to filter routes by those which have stops near your current location.

Very convenient and up to the minute arrival times, I love it!!

I also use the pace routes and this app doesn't have it??? Only CTA?
