TRACKING
UTA's buses and trains report their locations every 15 seconds (Flex routes are not included).
TRAX and FrontRunner route numbers:
Blue line - 701
Red line - 703
Green line - 704
FrontRunner - 750
- Put in a route number and see all vehicles on that route, put in a stop number to see all buses serving that stop, or put in an individual vehicle number (printed inside and on the back of UTA buses).
ROUTE SCHEDULES
- You can request a route schedule for any UTA 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/train 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 UTA 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 UTA 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 UTA.
- Because these alerts depend on the vehicle following the shape defined by UTA, 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.
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 UTA vehicle locations.
- Choose a custom ringtone for alerts.

Transit Tracker - Utah users say on Google Play
As others have said, it does crash often but it re starts up fast. Errors in routes and stop location appear occasionally, but that's probably the fault of the bus system's db. That being said, I give it 5 stars. Much better than the UTA app, and I use it every workday that I don't ride the bike to work.
The app is amazing. You can track the bus, I love it. But the one major problem is that, it keeps crashing (FIX IT!!)
I have changed my review so many times. some times it works perfectly but then all of a sudden it just sux. it won't give accurate info, it won't track busses correctly or sometimes not at all. right now it seems fine but who knows what the future will bring.
When the correct schedule is displayed, it is a useful app. Unfortunately the correct schedule is not always displayed (like now) and it has been crashing randomly/frequently on the S9+.
It doesn't load. Ever. It also sometimes gives the wrong information. I have missed my bus several times because of this app.
