Mobile Apps and Websites
In addition to a specially designed version of the AC Transit site for mobile devices, numerous apps and websites have been developed on Android, iOS, and Windows Phone platforms to help make riding AC Transit easier. The following is a list of the current apps available.
AC Transit has not tested these apps and does not provide technical support for or endorse any of the applications in this list. This list is provided only as a convenience for our riders. While every attempt has been made to ensure that this list is comprehensive and accurate, new apps are introduced every day and prices change. Please contact AC Transit with any changes or corrections.
And visiting http://www.nextbus.com from a smartphone or mobile platform’s web browser will bring up a web page specifically designed for a smaller screen.
If you’re interested in developing an app featuring AC Transit’s service, many data files are available from our Data Resource Center.
