|---|---|---|
| Description | An English-capable nationwide bus tracker with stops, live estimates, public bikes and metro maps. | Taipei Metro's official multilingual app for exits, first and last trains, live operations and crowding. |
| Essential? | Yes | No |
| Pro Tip | Use it to verify a Google Maps bus plan, but treat every arrival time as an estimate and confirm the final return service before a rural outing. | Tap the globe icon for English, Japanese or Korean. You do not need its QR ticket just to ride because Taipei Metro now accepts international contactless cards. |
