My Bus Times stands out as a commendable commuter application available in the App Store. Designed for efficiency, whether accessed via an Apple Watch, iPhone, or iPad, it allows users to minimize wait times at transit stops. With just two taps, users can view real-time bus or train arrivals in a clean interface featuring large fonts. Users can easily filter routes by tapping on the title to display only their desired service.

This app allows for customization by letting users enter titles and subtitles for each transit stop. Newly added stops are positioned at the top of the list, while users can rearrange them according to personal preference.

My Bus Times provides real-time transit information for over 125 agencies across numerous metropolitan areas in the United States and Canada. The application presents this data swiftly on iPhones, ensuring users have timely access to information rather than printed schedules. Feedback from users is appreciated, particularly positive reviews.

The app currently supports transit agencies from diverse regions including:

• 43 California agencies (including BART, CalTrain, and LA Metro)
• Vancouver buses
• 5 New York City agencies
• Washington DC bus and rail services
• 10 Seattle/Puget Sound agencies
• 5 agencies in Boston and Massachusetts
• Agencies from Florida, Maryland, North Carolina, Ontario, Quebec, Virginia, Honolulu, and Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Data is sourced from various providers such as 511.org for San Francisco, TransLink for Vancouver, MTA for New York City, and NextBus for other regions.

To set up My Bus Times:

1. Define frequently used stops on your device by entering stop IDs and naming them for ease of reference.
2. Utilize the Fast Lookup feature or SmartPaste on agency websites to find departure stops by route and destination.
3. Once a stop ID is entered, its location becomes visible; tapping it will auto-fill the stop title.
4. Edit the stop subtitle to reflect your destination (e.g., "To Work" or "From Work to Home").
5. Users can rearrange or delete stops based on their needs.

The application ultimately delivers real-time arrival information at chosen stops instantly upon opening on an iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch. For optimal performance, configuring your Apple Watch to Resume Previous Activity on Wrist Raise is recommended; this option is accessible within the iPhone's Apple Watch app settings.

Users should ensure that their devices remain powered and that auto-lock is disabled in Display Settings when using the app as a transit board.
