Rover for Android
Always get the best route to your destination. Rover tracks all MUNI, BART, and Caltrain lines and gives you directions that make sense right now, so you don't have to wait or worry about missing a connection.
Currently supporting SF MUNI, BART, and Caltrain in the SF Bay Area.
Does exactly what I want: show me the fastest way to get from where I am to a place I may only know the name of. It is very accurate, showing the time left to reach a stop down to the second. The map view is a little clunky, though. Zooming isn't as smooth as with Google Maps, and the map isn't zoomed in sync with the map.
They claim to have schedules for bart and caltrain. They do not.
As far as I know this is the only app that does transit routing using real time arrival data rather than timetables. Unfortunately the app is very buggy - the back button behavior is consistently surprising, and the battery use is off the charts, I think it leave the GPS on in the background. But until a better app comes along, the real time routing functionality is keeping this one on my phone.

I've used Rover on iPhone before, and it was near perfection. Here, the maps don't load enough in starting to show the streets I need to walk to get to my bus, and the zoom gets stuck and doesn't affect the loading of maps like it does on iPhone.
This is an amazing public transit app. Very accurate with directions and times. Turn on the GPS function to take advantage of the full app. I sincerely hope this app gets build for other cities soon.
I'm looking forward to the fully functional version of this app. It's a great idea to take vehicle arrivals into account when routing, but right now it's not really usable. For example, the "more routes" dropdown closes by itself before I can click a route, the times are way off, and it doesn't want to navigate to intersections. Fix the bugs and you'll have a great app.
Still working out some issues with the beta, but this app is great. Great concept! Now I can find the fastest route when I have multiple options!
This Is my go to app for muni mapping. Add better bart support and samtrans then this app would be even better than it already is. 511 transit is the only app I know of that does samtrans, add that to gain a massive group of users and to set yourself apart.
App tells me it only supports MUNI within SF, *not* the advertised "MUNI, BART, and Caltrain in the SF bay area".
Only works for Muni, no BART or Caltrain. Also seems slow to search and find directions. Also, why use Bing maps and not Google Maps? Please at least allow us to choose the provider.
Bug where when you open more options for muni buses won't let you select lower options Also would like to see not only the next bus but also the next two or three
Not an android app. :-(
This is the best app for public transportation!
Everything you need to get around on public transit in one app. No more flipping back and forth between a trip planner and the Muni arrival tracker. And the interface is super simple and easy to use. I love it!
Simple interface, very easy to use. A very well thought through app. I can finally find my way home using public transit.
Helpful App!
When exiting the app, GPS is not turned off. This is a problem for battery usage. Other than that, it works as expected.
Why do you put up iOS screenshots on the play store? I wasn't gonna download it because I thought it's just an ugly iOS port until I was told it is actually a good app. You're missing out on users with this!
Software could not provide route as advertised and could not route between different transit services such as BART and MUNI. Epic FAIL
The only app that gives directions based on where the buses actually are! So so useful, since Muni is never exactly on schedule. Unlike Google Maps, the directions are based on where the buses actually are, not where they are scheduled to be. A few minor UI problems, like selecting an alternate route.
Convenient and accurate on buses
