A BETTER WAY TO TRACK CHICAGO TRANSIT AUTHORITY TRAINS AND BUSES.
WITH 5 STARS ON THE APP STORE AND THOUSANDS OF DAILY USERS.
SLEEK ARRIVAL DISPLAY
EL Tracker's format is designed to mimic the arrival information displayed on the screens at every CTA train and bus station.
OUR USERS SAY:
"Pulls directly from the CTA system ... If the CTA worked as well as this app Chicago would have the best transit system in America."
"[EL Tracker] is lightweight and tailored specifically to Chicagoans."
"Very useful, became my everyday companion."
iOS WIDGETS
We offer customizable widgets, so you can add your home station, work station, school station, or even display arrivals for the station nearest to you.
OUR USERS SAY:
"Widgets are PHENOMENAL ... going to save lots of time fumbling through the clunky Ventra app."
SIRI COMPATIBILITY FOR LOW-VISION USERS
We prioritize accessibility, so EL Tracker not only denotes ADA accessible stations but also features text-to-voice and Siri compatibility.
OUR USERS SAY:
"Thoughtful and considered "extra" features like ... proper accessibility considerations. This really is the app that CTA should have built."
LANGUAGE SUPPORT
We aim to support the needs of a diverse and multilingual city. EL Tracker offers a variety of languages, including Spanish and Polish.
INTEGRATED MAPS
Our location-based train tracking allows you to see nearby station arrivals clearly on a map. EL Tracker also shows the live locations and run number of CTA trains.
OUR USERS SAY:
"The integrated map is super useful and I love how accurate the timetable shows [arrivals]. Been using since day one and haven’t missed a train since."
CUSTOMIZABLE FAVORITES AND ALERT NOTIFICATIONS
Select your favorite stations so EL Tracker can show you relevant alerts, or easily use the app without sharing your location. We also offer elevator outage push notifications for accessibility.
OUR USERS SAY:
"This is so much quicker to use than the Transit Stop app I've been using (plus the separate bookmarked web page I used for checking alerts)."
SMARTWALK
SmartWalk calculates your walking time to the station, and only displays arrivals on the widget after that walk time.
GHOST BUS TRACKING
EL Tracker's newest feature allows you to report when scheduled buses do not arrive. Live buses are also available on the integrated map.
