WORST TRANSIT APP EVER
Train times are wrong, sometimes they don’t even display for days on end (incredible). Seems like every positive review is written by a tourist who doesn’t have the misfortune of actually relying on this horrible app. Shame on the app developers for failing Chicago commuters. Absolutely shameful.

Nothing worth in this city nothing working properly. Waste of money and time. Don’t waste your money.
