What it does
Citymapper combines public transport, walking, cycling and shared-mobility options in an urban route planner. Its app provides live arrivals, disruption information, saved places and GO navigation in supported cities.
Compare the whole journey rather than the first bus departure. Citymapper can combine buses, trains, ferries and walking with other available modes, helping reveal a connection that is less obvious on a single operator’s map. The supported-city list is the appropriate place to check coverage before relying on it for a visit.
GO provides step-by-step guidance, including when to leave a service, while station-exit and boarding information can help with an unfamiliar interchange. Favourite stops and subscribed lines support repeated journeys from the same accommodation. Live-trip sharing lets a companion follow progress. Offline access concerns selected transit maps, so download the relevant map and distinguish it from the live arrivals and disruption information that change during the day.
