Auckland Transport has launched a new app which makes it easier to catch a bus, train or ferry.
One of the big benefits is the alerts function. Once you have entered your journey the app will send you alerts and tell you how far away your bus or train is, that way you know exactly when to leave home.
With AT Mobile you can:
- Create and save journeys.
- Create and save real time boards.
- View the real time location of your bus.
- Receive notifications when your bus is one stop away.
- Get reminded via notifications to get off your bus or train (great when you're travelling to unfamiliar areas).
- Receive route-specific notifications like bus stop closures or major disruptions.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest news and updates from Auckland Transport.

Group Manager AT Metro Customer & Market, Kevin Leith says it was important for AT to understand how customers use the app and what they would find valuable.
"We spoke extensively to customers throughout the app's development. Now it provides a simpler and more intuitive way for people to travel around the city."
Mr Leith says this is only the first step in building the app. Ongoing customer feedback is actively being sought to regularly release new features to make sure the app keeps improving.
