Welcome in Libre BusTO
About Libre BusTO
Libre BusTO, or simply BusTO, is your Android app that gives you arrival times for all public transport in Turin and its outskirts. Type in the number of the bus stop and get all the information about scheduled and real arrival times of every 5T/GTT's vehicle stopping there.
Some features:
- Simple interface
- Search by number
- Search by name
- Position suggestions
- Save favorite stops
And not obviously:
- No binary blob files
- No tracking
- No ads
- Fairly light
Do not confuse this app with other proprietary software made by some other people.
