About MBTA See Say

“See something say something” for smartphones.

The MBTA See Say App offers riders a quick and discreet method for reporting suspicious activity directly and instantaneously to Transit Police. Using this app, riders can send the MBTA Transit Police pictures, text messages, and locations of suspicious activity.

From the App home screen, riders have two easy options for contacting Transit Police:

* The “Report a Problem” button allows riders to send text or photos directly to Transit Police. To ensure discretion, the camera flash is automatically disabled when photos are taken through the app. When reporting an issue, riders can select station locations and report categories to assist transit police.

* The “Call Transit Police” button will connect customers directly to Transit Police.

The application is designed for the T. If you send a report in an area without cellular connectivity, it will be stored and sent when connectivity returns. The system is also design to send text before pictures so that Transit Police get reports as quickly as possible. 

Additional Features

Riders can sign up to receive MBTA T-Alerts through the app to be notified of service delays and disruptions.

BOLO alerts. (Be On the Look Out) SeeSay may also display alerts from the MBTA. For example, SeeSay may display information about a missing person, such as where they were last seen. If you see this person you may call or send a report to Transit Police.

Could be really good but images sent don't get recieved in a timely manner. Alerts are from the MBTA are delayed when they come at all.

No idea if it's any good

T70%
by T####:

Will give 5 stars if alerts come at a reasonable time. I did not receive alerts until the afternoon.

I70%
by I####:

Although I fortunately haven't needed to send an alert it's comforting to have what promises to be a real-time aid. In the past some idiot in the train would do something awful and all I could do was wish I could report it to police. Now I probably can. Service alerts is not this app's primary purpose. Giving 1 star because it didn't give a service alert makes no sense. It's a perk of the app. Thanks MBTA for this.

N70%
by N####:

ammending my previous review -- now, I'm not getting alerts for any service I've checked off. But I am getting ones for a bus that I didn't know existed before the app told me it was stuck in traffic.

Such an important app. The MBTA and transit police can't cover EVERYTHING, so they need the help of the public.

There appears to be no way to fully turn off the alerts notification function, which is annoying when the MBTA insists on sending out alerts about mundane things like service being extended to due to a football game. At first look the alerts feature appears well designed, with the ability to select only the transit lines you care about, but evidently there are global type alerts that go out even with no lines selected. Getting an alert at 12:45 AM about service being extended when you have no transit lines selected is absurd. If there were a way to turn off the alerts notification but still have the app installed for viewing alerts and reporting issues I may have kept it installed.

I am using the samsung gallaxy duscover phone model # sch-s735c. I try to use it, but it keeps going back to the first page, the legal agreement page, I tap agree, then it goes to my info, I fill it out, then it goes to the alerts page I pick bues then route 119. Then it goed back to the legal agreement. And it starts all over again, I get no where with this app. So, I am unibstalling it until you get it fix.

Galaxy S3. I have this primarily for the service alerts, since the MBTA killed off the RSS feed. Unfortunately, the alerts have gone from unreliable to virtually nonexistent. The only alerts I occasionally get are from the MBTA police, even though I have multiple lines selected.

Well done! Nice and easy to use UI that is far nicer looking than most gov'ment based apps. No obligation to ID oneself, providing anonymity if you want. It also does service alerts for all MBTA busses, rails and boats! This is a great way to allocate resources more efficiently making transit a safer, more enjoyable experience. All T riders with a smart phone should have this app on standby...

...However, the true test will be in having to actually use it (which I hope is never the case). Otherwise, a great tool to have on standby. (Pantech Crossover)

I don't get alerts anymore, and I don't think that's a good thing. Also, if I could customize the alert sound, that would make it much better when I actually do get them...
