Transit Tracker - TriMet
- TriMet allows riders to take advantage of the the API for tracking TriMet buses in the Portland area.
Transit Tracker
- TriMet also includes the ability to download route schedules.
Transit Tracker
- TriMet allows you to define alerts for TriMet routes and stops; get a notification when a vehicle on a specific route is approaching or arriving at a particular stop.
Please send me an email if you find a problem or if you have any comments or suggestions.
TRACKING
- Put in one or more route numbers, separated by spaces or commas, and see all buses on those routes or put in an individual bus number (printed on the side of TriMet buses).
ROUTE SCHEDULES
- You can request a route schedule for any TriMet route by entering its number. Schedules can be viewed as origin/destination tables or on a map. On the map, see when the next bus is scheduled to arrive by tapping on a stop. See all times for that stop by tapping on the info window that appears.
CLOSE STOPS
- Select your current location or an address you enter or select on a map as a search location for TriMet stops that are nearby. You can specify a maximum number of stops to return as well as an optional route filter.
ALERTS
- You can define alerts for when a TriMet vehicle is approaching or arriving at a particular stop. These alerts are based on distance from the stop, using the shape of the route defined by TriMet.
- Because these alerts depend on the vehicle following the shape defineUd by TriMet, if the vehicle is on detour, or if the vehicle isn't following the defined route for some other reason, your alert may not trigger as expected.
DIRECTIONS
- Choose an origin, a destination, and the time you would like to either depart or arrive, and the Google Maps app will display the different options available using TriMet's buses and trains.
- Transit Tracker
- TriMet displays the latest updates from @TriMet.
Other features:
- Choose a light or dark theme.
- Show satellite imagery and/or color-coded traffic data on the map.
- Optionally keep the map screen from dimming and shutting off.
- Adjust the update interval of TriMet vehicle locations.
- Choose a custom ringtone for TriMet alerts.

Ads! So stupid and unneccessary when other transit trackers don't have them. That plus downloading routes and being pretty archaic for user friendlyness makes this app pretty crappy.
Doesn't tell you the schedule only the stops.
One of the better transit apps
So far love this app. Will write more of a review after I have used it more. So far though no complaints.
Had to contact the developer for an issue I was having, got quick response, I guess I got confused or something. Best trimet app I've used, easier interface than the others.
Nothing to get too excited about. It works but I'm not a fan of how you navigate within the app.
Being tied to a map makes the app laggy, battery intensive, and hard to use. All I wanted to know was when a bus would be at my stop. Couldn't figure out how to find that information after 10 minutes of fiddling with it. I consider myself pretty technologically proficient, so this was a major pain point.
It doesn't ever do what you want and if its not all the way up to date it won't find service and the times are all off by at least 15 minutes
A well designed app and the developer is very involved
Glad its not apple exclusive
Didn't show max stops
Cant use buses
