Uber app to display real-time public transit data so you can easily combine modes of transport

in #uber7 years ago


Uber has announced plans to make it easier for riders to keep tabs on transit options by displaying real-time public transport data directly within the Uber app.

For this feature — available only in the Android Uber app for now — the ride-hailing giant has teamed up with Transit, a Canadian-headquartered urban transport information service that operates in more than 125 cities globally, to show live departure times whenever a rider’s destination is near a transit stop.

Tapping on a specific departure will take the user to the Transit app for full directions, service information, and so on.
