About Transit Tracker+ - UTA

Transit Tracker+ - UTA is an ad-free version of Transit Tracker - UTA with a few additional features.

Transit Tracker - UTA allows riders to take advantage of the Utah Transit Authority's vehicle monitoring and stop finding services.

Transit Tracker - UTA also includes the ability to download route schedules.

Transit Tracker - UTA allows you to define alerts for UTA routes and stops; get a notification when a vehicle on a specific route is approaching or arriving at a particular stop.

Please send me an email if you find a problem or if you have any comments or suggestions.

TRACKING

UTA's buses and trains report their locations every 15 seconds (Flex routes are not included).

TRAX and FrontRunner route numbers:
Blue line - 701
Red line - 703
Green line - 704
FrontRunner - 750

- Put in a route number and see all vehicles on that route, put in a stop number to see all buses serving that stop, or put in an individual vehicle number (printed inside and on the back of UTA buses).

ROUTE SCHEDULES

- You can request a route schedule for any UTA route by entering its number. Schedules can be viewed as origin/destination tables or on a map. On the map, see when the next bus/train is scheduled to arrive by tapping on a stop. See all times for that stop by tapping on the info window that appears.

CLOSE STOPS

- Select your current location or an address you enter or select on a map as a search location for UTA stops that are nearby. You can specify a maximum number of stops to return as well as an optional route filter.

ALERTS

- You can define alerts for when a UTA vehicle is approaching or arriving at a particular stop. These alerts are based on distance from the stop, using the shape of the route defined by UTA.

- Because these alerts depend on the vehicle following the shape defineUd by UTA, if the vehicle is on detour, or if the vehicle isn't following the defined route for some other reason, your alert may not trigger as expected.

DIRECTIONS

- Choose an origin, a destination, and the time you would like to either depart or arrive, and the Google Maps app will display the different options available using UTA's buses and trains.

TWITTER

- Transit Tracker - UTA displays the latest updates from @RideUta.

Other features:

- Choose a light or dark theme.
- Show satellite imagery and/or color-coded traffic data on the map.
- Optionally keep the map screen from dimming and shutting off.
- Adjust the update interval of UTA vehicle locations.
- Choose a custom ringtone for UTA alerts.
- Add track and route widgets and shortcuts to your home screen to go straight to the map or schedule you want.

Love being able to see where Frontrunner trains are. Now I know whether to stay in my office rather than wait in the cold for a delayed train. One question: Why can't the update to get alerts and stop information come with the download of the app? For security, it always makes me uneasy downloading something not from the Google play store. Great app. Thank you!

S70%
by S####:

I had the free one, and now have to reinstall it because this app rarely works. Mad I paid to get rid of ads and instead got a useless app. Free version works much better and pretty much same features just with ads.

J70%
by J####:

Ever since the last updated most of the stops don't show on Sundays anymore. So if you could please fix that problem I'd appreciate it, thanks.

E70%
by E####:

Tried out all other UTA apps on their site and this is still the best. Sometimes has some hiccups but at least its been updated since 2014.

S70%
by S####:

Keeps me updated on time of arrival and lets me see about where the bus location is. But has its flaws but not to bad. I take buses all over Layton and due to construction my bus was rerouted and I'm not talking days in talking months, but the tracker still says it goes the normal route. They have a bus that gets close to that area but due to detour it don't tell you what bus and you only get as close as 2 blocks as far as east of target on antelope.

I use this app on a daily basis to see how late the train is (since it always reports itself as "on time" even when it is twenty minutes late). It is great to check if I will make my transfer or not.

D70%
by D####:

Use this daily. Love it!

B70%
by B####:

I wouldn't be without this on UTA, especially when making transfers. It's also great for finding alternatives, when there are UTA service delays or disruptions.

S70%
by S####:

Seems to be having lag problems since the OTA Nexus update on 14 Jul 2016. Otherwise, always a great app!

Been using this app for years and no problems yet!

Great app

R70%

Great app if you know which bus you want.

R70%
by R####:

Whenever I ride Trax or plan to, I use this app. It's one of the best apps on my phone.

R70%
by R####:

Everything you need, with great support.

T70%
by T####:

The information is great. The interface is confusing, unnecessarily cumbersome, and painful.

R70%
by R####:

Better than ever! I like the addition of being able to save favorite schedules with selected stops. Real time bus data makes this app more useful than any other transit app I've tried. The update that gives the option to have the stops and buses in reverse colors is a very nice addition.

X70%
by X####:

This app is fantastic, except very often it tells me there is no transit service available on days I know there are buses running. Sundays, for instance, and just this last Monday (labor day) I looked up my routes and found "no service available" and drove. While driving I saw half a dozen different buses AND frontrunner making their rounds. Great for everyday, but I've wasted rather a lot of gas because the schedules are incomplete.

R70%
by R####:

I use this app every time I ride the bus. It is so helpful. Love that I can track where the bus is. Great app. Keep up the great work!

R70%
by R####:

Track where the bus or train is in real time, get schedules and more. A must-have for people who ride UTA regularly!

R70%
by R####:

Needs to be updated more often by the uta databases.

G70%
by G####:

I too enjoy this app and used it daily right up until I too get the licensing error like the other user Jordan Williams. I've tried clearing the cache, uninstalling, etc. Popup comes about every 8-10 seconds. I actually take comfort that at least one other person has seen this error. My phone is the Note 4 with Android 5. My Moto X first edition had no error.

R70%
by R####:

I have little to no hassle with worrying about catching buses! Thank you for this great app!

R70%
by R####:

Works quite well and I do enjoy the bus tracking portion of the app

R70%
by R####:

I've used the free app forever and it was great. Because I am using public transportation more often I decided to purchase it. Well worth it.

R70%
by R####:

App works well and has everything I wanted for efficiently figuring out the bus system in SLC.

H70%
by H####:

I use this app everyday. It really helps in keeping track of the buses and trains.

R70%
by R####:

Love this app, great app if you are in Salt Lake City, I used the free app all the time, so paid for it and LOVE it even more with the added features!!!!

R70%
by R####:

Thanks for creating this app. I sell Real Esate and this app helps me show my clients where bus stops are. Owning Utah and being able to get around Utah are both important. Way to go!

Q70%
by Q####:

Great app! Very useful for the lazy people in Salt Lake who hate driving and want to plan things a little better! Any chance of Android wear support coming in the future?

R70%
by R####:

Excellent app I recommend it to everyone.

R70%
by R####:

The layout is simple and easy to navigate. I love how the homepage displays the routes you've previously searched for. I always know if I have enough time to grab a drink at the 7-11 before the bus arrives. I gave the app four stars initially, due to app crashes, but this issue is completely solved with update. Can't forget a shout-out to the fantastic dev!

R70%
by R####:

A must have to tell how late you might be here in Utah! Very accurate and consistently works. A definite must, if you use the UTA!

I70%
by I####:

One of my most used apps. A must for anyone who rides the white trash limo.

V70%
by V####:

Great material theming, but user interface can be a bit clunky at times. Also, is there a way to pick more than 2 stops to see their schedules?

T70%
by T####:

It's the same day UTA uses but a lot easier to find and read. It's worth the small price to not have ads.
