While the developer lived in Portland and supported the app. It worked great. However it's shows wrong times. Bus suppose to come at s certain hour check later and now it's different time.

For tracking portland metro busses. Except streetcar; those are broken. But otherwise.

Downloaded this & Portland Transit Lite. This saves routes & stops (PTL only stops). Trimet's mobile site offers more functionality for trip planning

Very useful app! I love the saved stops feature. Curious why I am recently not getting real-time Max times anymore

S70%
by S####:

Downside, it's started crashing every time I use it with gps to find stops. But it's been perfect for a year now. Safe assumption that it'll be fixed.

by R####:

Would be good if you didnt have to close the app and restart it if you have more than one stop to check. Hitting the back button crashes it

by R####:

Great great realtime updates. Could use a asthetic overhaul but that doesnt matter when it just does what it needs to so well. Thank you.

N70%
by N####:

Always works use it everyday. Map view is rad and quick. Nearby stops option IMHO eliminates need for trip planner. Galaxy S

This would be nice if it actually worked. The GPS function never works on my phone, so bye bye.

F70%
by F####:

I see the dev no longer lives here/supports this. Still a super clean accurate app, my favorite for keeping track of trains

by E####:

Sadly, he has moved away from Portland, but this app still works well!

Car broke down and I needed to start taking the bus. This app was awesome. Its been a while, but with this app I felt secure.

I love this app and have used it for years but i just upgraded my phone, it works on lolipop but there is no menu button, i can still use this app but it isn't as simple or easy without the menu button. I can't just enter a stop number then save the stop, i have to search for the stop in the listings and save ot from there, to refresh the stop i have to back out and go back in. It would help a lot if the app got updated with a menu button for those phones that dont have one.

I prefer the trip planner on TriMet's web page. This is nice if I am already at a stop, wondering when the next train will arrive. Map feature a plus.

L70%
by L####:

Great app, however since trimet decided to dork with the schedules the app does indicate max stops that no longer exist. But still a great resource!

FC since upgrading to Gingerbread. Slow to get GPS location. No updates, limited features.

X70%
by X####:

I have been using this app for the last 3 years and I have never had a problem with it. Its fast and its always right on when it comes to times for buses and the max. I use it everyday. To get my kids to school on time and to get to my college classes on time. Great App!!!!! :)

A70%
by A####:

It works fine, just wish I could refresh with my S7 to get the new arrival time estimates when looking at a saved stop instead of leaving and re-entering the page

B70%
by B####:

This has been one of my go-to apps for almost 2 years. Never let me down. *** Stopped working awhile ago. Now just crashes. Have tried reinstalling. HTC Sensation.

C70%
by C####:

This is definitely the simplest, most straight forward app I've ever used to help with Trimet public transit in the Portland metro area. I've used it for over 3 years. No glitz, no glamor, just the info you need in an easy to read format.

Z70%
by Z####:

This has been extremely helpful. Dedicated user since 05-04-11. I recommend it to any child of Trimet. A BIG thank you to the developer(s) for this app. The only improvement I think it needs is streetcar info.

K70%
by K####:

I can plan a trip with it. And know what time my next bus comes at the stop. so I know how much time I have to shop.

I70%
by I####:

I use it everyday and it is very much reliable. I count on this to keep me on schedule.

Z70%
by Z####:

Still fast and I can navigate if I'm not looking for nearby stops. That function no longer works! :-( Gingerbread upgrade, Verizon user.

K70%
by K####:

Does not have all routes, specifically the one I use to get to work. Using TriMet's mobile site instead

N70%
by N####:

I've never had a problem with this app that didn't start from trimet's usual incompetence staying on schedule. The easiest to use and quick!

Z70%
by Z####:

Even though this hasn't been updated in years I still find it the easiest to use of the pdx trackers and the info it gets is just as accurate.

Z70%

...I have always counted on this app, but recent random crashes have left me restarting my phone & missing buses

Z70%
by Z####:

After several months if happily using this app (which, yeah, is lacking some bells and whistles but does what it claims to do), it stopped working yesterday. Now all I can get is, "There was a problem fetching arrivals." Consistently, everywhere, when every other feature on my phone is working fine. I've restated, uninstalled/reinstalled, and am now out of ideas other than finding another app.

A70%
by A####:

Can't give 0 stars. App search error x3 so uninstalled

Z70%
by Z####:

Works great and quickly with a decent connection. Other offerings edge out because the font here is slightly too small and hard to read

Z70%
by Z####:

A somewhat simple app that lacks some luster but is excellent and works very well. It's quite impressive how quick it indexes and loads transit information. Kudos on no annoying ads too. Thanks for your efforts

Very convenient! I'd have a Starbuck's cup and relax til only a couple of minutes b4 the Max arrives. I use it all the time. - Evo

I love this app. It's simple, it's straight forward, and it gets the job done. I've tried the official Trimet app (on an iPod Touch), and while it has some nice bonuses (such as trip making and GPS bus/max tracking), I prefer PDX Transit Finder because it gets me exactly what I need and no more. It does sometimes glitch up and give error messages, but few enough times that it's not a huge bother. If it ever doesn't work, you can still get the stop ID and use the old fashioned Trimet Transit Tracker texting number (27299). I do however wish that the icon wasn't just a weird red pipe. Need a designer, Ryan? I'll make one!

Y70%
by Y####:

Wow, this app is quick & easy to use plus it's free. The other TriMet apps that I''ve tried are really slow & clunky! I love the gps stop finder.

Great app, is lightweight and quick. Does exactly what it says it does. Highly recommend it

Improved the main reason why i switched since my last use, but I'm keeping Portland Transit Lite -Sprint (CDMA) Hero

Z70%

The app is awesome. Is there anyway we could choose whether or not our saved stops reorder themselves?

Z70%
by Z####:

This app has saved me so much time! Could use a little more bells and whistles but does the job.

Z70%
by Z####:

I use it everyday... but it would be nice if it showed more then 2 arrivals at a time for a stop and if there was a trip planning function. Also lately the times have been been changing frequently, so I'm having to check it every few mins to make sure its still correct and i don't miss the bus.
