Features & Capabilities

TransitDB Vancouver is your go-to offline reference app for public transit schedules in Metro Vancouver. It provides fully offline access to all bus routes and stops within the TransLink transit service area, including first and last departure times for buses, SeaBus, SkyTrain, and West Coast Express stations.

The app also offers contact information for taxis and other useful local entities. Users can save and rename favorite bus stops and locate nearby stops and stations. While TransitDB Vancouver focuses on schedule information, it does not include trip planning functionality. For planning routes, users are encouraged to use Google Maps or the official TransLink trip planner.

TransitDB Vancouver is not affiliated with TransLink but sources schedules directly from TransLink's offline data. User feedback and bug reports are welcomed via the app's built-in feedback form, ensuring continuous improvements to enhance your commuting experience.

User Reviews

TransitDB Vancouver is praised for offline access, fast loading, and a simple interface that makes quick arrival info easy, especially via the Favorites page. However, reviewers repeatedly report outdated or unreliable stop times, slow data updates, no map or destination/departure planning features, and limited Favorites organization, plus occasional bugs. Overall it’s useful for quick checks but reliability and missing features hinder longer trips.

Pros

Offline mode works well (offline support available)
Fast loading and quick access to arrival information
Easy-to-use, straightforward interface with no fluff
Accurate bus arrival times (noted by users)
Favorites provide at-a-glance information and quick stop search

Cons

Stop times and schedules are often outdated or inaccurate; updates are slow
Lack of map, route planning, and destination/departure time input
Data updates are infrequent; no live updates
Limited Favorites organization (no labeling or folders to separate routes)
Occasional bugs such as crashes when sending feedback

comprehensive and informative. but you want 5 stars? here's how * live updates of "next buses here" info * partitioned favourites lists, one set for "leaving home", another for "leaving work", another for "post SkyTrain last leg"; user created, managed, in local storage only * running triangles for SkyTrain runs: Expo to Surrey, Expo to UniverCity, Millennium, Canada to Richmond, Canada to Airport -- not live updated, just the boilerplate that used to be in the printed schedules. that'll do
