This app provides a simple countdown timer for when you should leave your home or work in order to arrive at the station just in time for the train you want.
• No more waiting around on the BART platform.
• No more narrowly missed trains.
• Know exactly when you should leave for the station, along with your next best options.
Simply provide your home and work stations, along with how long it takes you to walk/bike to the station, and the app uses real-time BART info to tell you how many minutes left before you need to pack up and hit the road.
"Do I have time to finish my morning coffee?"
"Should I send this email now or wait until tomorrow?"
"Do I need to run to catch this train?"
Wonder no more, and reclaim those wasted minutes every day.
Also comes with a Quick Trip feature for fast, simple departure times when youre out on other, non-commute adventures.
* Loose conjecture follows *
Lets assume your average station wait is 4 minutes in the morning and 4 more in the evening (conservative). Thats 8 minutes a day.
Now this app reduces your wait time to under a minute (its true!), saving at least 6 minutes a day. Multiply that across the work-year and youll be spending over 12 hours a year, NOT waiting on the BART platform. Not bad for a free app.
