Transit to Replace Metro On The Go on April 30
Return to Blog
Have you switched over to the new Transit app? If not, time is running out.
On April 30, Metro Transit will discontinue the “Metro On The Go” mobile application. It will no longer be supported.
Instead, Metro Transit has partnered with Transit, the official real-time information and trip-planning mobile application for the St. Louis region’s public transportation system. With the app, you can check out nearby transit options and departure times, and easily navigate the region, aided by accurate real-time MetroBus tracking, trip planning, and step-by-step navigation with Transit’s GO feature.
Download the app: iPhone | Android
Transit also offers first- and last-mile connections to Metro with its Transit+ feature. For certain trips, Transit will suggest taking an Uber or Lyft part of the way, and connecting with MetroBus or MetroLink service. This first-of-its kind feature allows you to plan, book, and pay for a ride-sharing trip, while getting real-time updates on your connection — all in one app.

I don’t like it
I have a Windows phone. ☹
I don’t like the new app
Sorry to hear that Annette. We’re happy to walk you through the app. Give us a call 314-231-2345.
I like this app. It works great. Google Maps is also incredibly useful with their transit directions, for folks who don’t have an iOS or Android phone, or don’t want to download another app.
