When meeting someone for the first time, whether it’s a date or meeting a client for a coffee, being late doesn’t create the lasting impression you might want. Even if you know where you are going, delays and closures can get in the way of that, so it’s useful to plan your travels on the Trip Planner so Moovit can help you get there smoothly.
Plan a journey in 2 ways:
Get directions to a destination address or Point of Interest (POI)
Find a specific line and arrival stop
Either way you choose, start with the search bar at the top of the Home screen
When you want step-by-step directions
Type in and select the address or place you want to go.
Next you can select several options if you like.
You can change your starting location where it says “Current location” and you can switch the start and end points of your trip by tapping on the double arrows
Choose to leave “Now” or select a specific time to depart or arrive
Set your travel preferences where you see “Best Route”
Choose which transit types to include or exclude in your trip plan
Moovit sorts through all possible ways to get where you’re going and gives you the best choices based on your trip preferences.
Simply choose your preferred route and you’ll see the full Directions view below. Below the map you’ll see the start & end time for your trip, and you can check earlier and later itineraries. If you’re ready to go, tap the play button to get GPS style Live Directions that update as you travel.
2) When you know your line and last stop
After tapping the search bar on the Home screen, choose “Lines” under the search bar. Then either search or scroll to find your line.
You’ll see the full schedule for the line. Directly under the map, make sure you’re line is going in the right direction. If not, tap the double arrows to change it. Tapping on the stations shows you Real Time Arrival info (where available) and also allows you to tap on the 3 dots to submit a report or add the line as a favorite.
For a carefree ride, tap the play button, select your final stop, and let Moovit send you a notification to remind you when your stop is approaching.
At Moovit, we believe riding is better together, so if you have a friend that could benefit from a smoother journey on public transit, share this with them and let them buy you a coffee for the countless minutes you’ll save them throughout the year. Smooth travels!
