User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Best CTA Tracking App!!!
The folks who’ve put this together are miles above Ventra and the rest of the trackers. Great UI, great loading and update times. Super responsive to feedback and suggestions for improvements. Keep up the great work!!!
★★★★☆Great App, Small Bug
Great app! Use it multiple times daily.
Unfortunately, the most recent update appears to have broken the readability of widget text. In my case I'm using dark, grayscale icons on the homescreen (iOS 18 feature) and recently the text appears white against a white background. I can't read any information on direction or arrival time. Please fix!
★★★★★Widgets are a game changer.
There is literally no other app that shows you departures on a widget, and the smart walk feature is amazing. It’s also the only app where you can ask Siri when the next train is coming. Fantastic app tons of great features.
★★★★★This app is amazing
Especially the map view. So much better and easier to use than the other app I’ve been using. Thanks for making this!
★★★★★Great app for Chicago EL riders!!
Pulls directly from the cta system so the most up to date data. If the CTA worked as well as this app Chicago would have the best transit system in America. No paywall, no ads
