Metlink Melbourne
Metlink's iPhone app gives you scheduled departures for trains, trams and buses throughout Victoria.
This version is iOS 5 ready, and is available to those who are running iOS 3.0 (or higher). It also has the new ‘online’ feature to access timetables directly from the Metlink server. All you need is an internet connection. However, you can still download timetables to your handset with the ‘offline’ feature.
The app provides you with train, tram and bus information on the go.
You can check scheduled departures for train, tram and bus, plan your journey, get real-time tram information via tramTRACKER®, view the next five departures from stations and stops, view the unplanned changes for metropolitan trains, find your closest stops using GPS, and load your favourite stations and stops for quick access to timetables. The app also runs in the background, so you can plan and refer back to a journey, or quickly access your departures.
For the most up-to-date public transport information, you can choose to access timetables directly from the Metlink server with the ‘online’ feature. All you need is an internet connection.
However, you can still download and store timetables on your handset with the ‘offline’ feature so it uses none of your data pack / cap when using ‘offline’ departures. We recommend you download timetables to your handset using a WiFi network for both speed and data usage reasons.
We are constantly trying to improve the app, so if you find any problem please let us know. You can contact Metlink through the ‘Feedback’ button, or directly via email to iphone@metlinkmelbourne.com.au.
Also available: FREE tramTRACKER app – for real-time tram departure and arrival times.
