Chicago Transit Tracker Pro for Android
Good App could be better if more accurate with the times
This is so freakin AWESOME!!!!! Using it for years

I end up waiting in the cold more with this app than I ever did before I had it. The data isn't the same as what is sent by the CTA, because your times never match the times at the actual train platforms.
I love this app. No more waiting in the freezing cold or scorching sun for the bus. Accurate estimates on arrival times most of the time. Has a few glitches, but still worth the money!
You're not even trying anymore. 7:10AM trains are 15 and 29 minutes away. 7:15AM trains are 2 and 14 minutes away. What the heck happened to those missing 8 minutes? This is the single most inaccurate app ever. I also know it isn't the same as the data sent by the CTA, because your times never match the times at the actual train platforms.

Please fix forced close
Love it!
When updating to Pro from Basic you should migrate all created routes from basic to Pro. Also you need to include PACE routes, espcly S. Sbrbs.
Thanks for the train time fix! This app makes my Chicago commuting life possible!
Slower than using the mobile website provided by the CTA already. The interface is terrible too. Refund requested.
Good, but not perfect, sometimes has trouble updating on DROID X
See all my options at ones
Good app, but TrekKing has better train times and alarms that go off even if app isn't in front.
I like the speed and user interface of this app, but TreKing is more accurate in my comparison.
Great app, I like the new train tracker, but why is it only Lake that shows up on it regardless of where I am?
Best of the 4 CTA apps I've used so far! Almost always accurate for buses within a minute, and refreshes extremely quickly. - Tmo G2
Now all that's missing is the widget!! :-)
No predictions?!
good app
Works great and use it everyday. It just needs direction arrows for mapped buses as mentioned earlier.
Make it possible to sort bus routes by street name as well as route number, and to sort stops geographically as well as alphabetically.
Great app. I just wish the alarm feature could be improved.
Now it sucks. This app is insanely inaccurate, to the point of being useless and worthless. This POS will tell me an L is ten minutes away, then five minutes later that estimate hasn't changed at all. Are the Ls just sitting on the tracks twiddling their thumbs? Or did you instead find a way to break an awesome app? I'm going with the latter.
Pay the man people. It's the best CTA app in the market. The key is organizing the stops that are relevant to you into cohesive headings. So maybe you have four different choices from your home, those go under the heading "home" then maybe "Wrigleyville" or "The Loop" this way you aren't just staring at a huge list.

The app works well, but the functionality is not always the most helpful. You cannot easily look up routes that aren't on your favorites. It's great for looking at frequent routes, but cumbersome if you're trying to use it on the streets.
Pros: No ads Organize/ rename routes Cons: Alarm doesn't work App sometimes takes minutes to load/refresh times Only lists the l specific bus / train direction, so even if you could take the other buses or taking the train different direction, App only lists the ones you have specifically listed I was/am really happy wth Fast Times I bought this one bc it has an alarm you can set for approaching routes but all the times I have set it, it doesn't work
Not accurate and not even close. Get transit tracks, it's free and is way more accurate.
Nothing special at all about this product- you can get it on their website and sometimes more easily
Decent enough app, but there are others that are way better and do a lot more. This one isn't worth paying for
Never had any issues on my Droid Charge. runs great.
Best transit locater appp!
There are several third-party CTA apps which work far better than this disgraceful embarrassment of an official paid app. Don't waste your time/money on this abhorration of an app. I recommend the RedEye app. It's a vast improvement on tracking transport around the city.
I use this app all the time during my commute to/from work. I love how it loads multiple routes at the same time, so you know which bus to catch.
Good when it works but it takes SO LONG to load and sometimes won't load at all.
This app was a total waste of my time and money. It takes FOREVER, and I mean FOREVER to load!!! And that is when it is working! It only works 50% of the time, and it is frustrating to say the least! My recommendation is to not waste your time with this app. Go with the Red Eye app... it is free, accurate, & reliable.
Chicago in winter; could not be happier with this app!

Why hasn't this app been updated since February of 2015? Is there still a dev team on this app?
