Depot: Chicago CTA and Divvy
Depot is a powerful tracker for the buses and trains of the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA).
- Get quick answers: See the stops and routes that are closest to you and save the ones you use most for easy access
- No need to keep opening up the app: Track arrival times in your notification bar or right on your home screen with Depot widgets
- Don't waste time in the cold: Set an alarm that lets you know when to leave the house
- Sit back and relax: Depot can notify you when your stop is coming up
- In the mood to bike instead? Depot also shows you a list of available Divvy bikes and stations
Depot Chicago is easy to use, features a sleek design, and does not have any ads. All transit data comes directly from the Chicago Transit Authority.

Downloaded specifically for the widgets which don't keep updated
Let's me know when to expect the bus that is what matters
Love the app, but lately it's not showing arrival times for buses, just saying no buses in next 30 minutes, when there are some coming which show on the map view. Also, some stops are missing completely, like the westbound 77 stop at Belmont and Sheffield.
I've been using this app for two years now I rely on it a lot, and it super easy to figure out and organize stops
Absolutely fantastic. Would love to see a saved stops widget that allows multiple stops to be shown, even if just shortcuts.
I can't seem to find the stops on the north side of UIC for 7 bus on the list
Probably a good app but doesn't have purple line stop at Wilson. Edit. Hasn't had an update in 2 years.
Great app!! Missing "alarm clock feature" Have option that at certain times of day, show certain stop info in notification bar.
Saved stops, CTA alerts, due time, map to view buses and trains, estimated time to a stop.... Perfect. Update: it's 2 min early on the bus and 2 min late on trains. Removed one star.
App is abandoned, you are better off using the CTA website and saving bookmarks.
Been using this for many years. One of the best ones, I think, for transit times
So far it's been very accurate and I love the maps.
Great up would be nice to see in the future pace and Metra included.
Better than text on sign its the ONLY APP I USE THANKS CTA RTA
BEST CTA app I've ever used... by far. Never wrong in my experience. Won't use anything else!
Does the job. Nice material design.
...and easy to use.
Da best and on time
Doesn't update
Having problems with the widget. When I add a widget to the home screen and tap it, I get a "Network error" message
Definitely one of the good ones out there if not the best. Love the feature to save frequent stops and the nearby stops feature.
The widgets leave a lot to be desired though
Always accurate and easy to use!
I love the widget
Is excellent thank you
Best app for the CTA. Very well done with some nice extras. To the dev: can you make it so the train stations only show one way vs both? Thanks
Love the desktop widgets. Edit: the widgets stop working all the time, which requires rebuilding each widget to fix. Annoying. Apparently this app is abandoned. Bummer, its so close.
