Dear friends, users of the Android system!
Today I will introduce you to an application that will save you from the uncertainty of waiting for public transport at a bus stop. You probably often had to stand at a bus stop, waiting for the right transport and cursing the discrepancy between the posted schedule and reality. With traffic jams now common in big cities, it is difficult to count on the accuracy of arrival on schedule.
There is an exit. If you are the owner of a smartphone with Internet access, then using a good free of Yandex.Transport program, you can at any time see on the map at the place of your current location (however, if necessary, also in any other one), the real traffic situation on the approaches to your stop.
Application when opened determines your location and when you click on the arrow in the lower left corner, it centers the map on it.
On the map in real time appear moving marks buses, trolleybuses, trams, indicating the route number and direction of travel. Using these marks, you can roughly determine whether the necessary transport is on the way, how long you still have to wait for it, and decide whether it is worth finding alternative options. There is a filter with which you can leave only the route you need on the map.
At clicking the stop icon you get a list of all the routes that stop on it. When you press per transport label you get its end stops.
In my experience, the accuracy of displaying the real position is not perfect, but still very decent. The time error is no more than 1-2 minutes. It is only necessary to take into account that, of course, only vehicles equipped with a navigation system are displayed, and there are more and more of them.
You can also overlay on the map traffic information from the Yandex.Traffic service by clicking on the traffic light in the upper left.
In short, a very convenient application, it helped out more than once. Naturally, it requires an Internet connection to work.
Not so long ago, a convenient application called Yandex Transport appeared in the Yandex browser, which was created for those users who are used to traveling by public transport. By installing this application on iPad, you can see the schedule of any type of transport: trams, buses, fixed-route taxis, track their path and plan your trips, knowing the time of movement, the number of stops, tracking the movement of the transport you need. Today, many Yandex Transport users have no idea how to do without such a convenient "navigator".
I think you will agree that you shouldn't be late for work or school, and even for a business meeting. But how to build your schedule so that you can keep up with it? To do this, you will be helped by the "Transport" application from Yandex. Having opened it in advance, you can plan your route, set an alarm and leave the bus stop on time. You do not have to worry in vain and wait for the required minibus or tram, as they will arrive according to the schedule indicated in the application, and you will arrive at the stop in advance, so you will confidently reach the desired point exactly on time.

And if you want to install this application on your computer, you must first install Android OS emulator BlueStacks program, by installing which you can download directly from the service Play Market and run android applications on your PC.

The service is at the stage of revision and in connection with these several unresolved points:
- To date, not all cities are connected (listed above).
- Even if the city is present in Yandex.Transport maps, this does not mean that all routes are tracked there, due to the ignorance or unwillingness of transport companies to participate in this online tracking program.
But it should be noted that the idea is quite serious and it is necessary to collect and provide for use information that is constantly changing, with the expectation that not all transport companies are easy to cooperate and it is necessary to make great efforts and time to this, as well as fix everything errors in the operation of this system.
The exact time of arrival of vehicles at the stop has always been of interest to city dwellers. Knowing the exact time of the bus will help you plan your time much more efficiently. As a rule, there is a timetable for the arrival of public transport near each stop, but given the number of traffic jams, it is useless to be guided by it. However, now the problem with transport has been solved thanks to the Yandex.Transport application.
Yandex.Transport is a new service from the largest Russian company that allows you to track transport in real time.
The app exists in two versions: for iOS and for Android. Unfortunately, Windows users have not yet received their own version of the application.
However, if you do not have a smartphone or you just want to use Yandex.Transport on your computer, below you will learn how to do this.
First of all, we need to download an Android emulator to our computer, which will allow us to run any applications adapted for this mobile operating system.
If you have not decided on the choice of an emulator, then I advise you to pay attention to BlueStacks - a free emulator with a convenient interest and Russian localization, with which you can run almost any Android application on your computer.
Download BlueStacks and install it on your computer.
After the first launch of the program, you may have difficulty switching the keyboard layout to English. This situation can be corrected as follows:
1. From the BlueStacks home screen, open the app "Settings".
2. Open the section "Change keyboard settings" and then select the keyboard "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard"... A list of available languages will open, among which you need to find and mark "English (USA, International)".
Please note that the layout will not switch in the standard way, but using the combination Ctrl + Space.
After that, you need to log in to Google,. If you don't have a registered account yet, you need to create one here. Without this, you will not be able to download applications from the Google Play store.
Once you're signed in, return to the home screen and select "Search"... In the window that opens, enter the name of the application Yandex.Transport, and then select "Search on Play".
You will be redirected to the app store, where you can download Yandex.Transport. Click the button "Install" and wait for the download and installation to finish.
Once the installation is complete, the "Install" button will be replaced by the "Open" button, which must be pressed.
The application itself will start. The program will not be able to automatically detect your city, therefore the map of Moscow will be displayed by default. To change this situation, open the settings and select your city.
Yandex.Transport is now ready to use. On the map, you will see small moving icons with public transport numbers that represent the current movement. Buses, trolleybuses, trams, as well as route taxis are displayed here.
To know how long it will take for the bus to reach your stop, you need to log in. If you have not created a Yandex mail account, you can create one using this link. After that, you can add your stops to your favorites list and visually see how many minutes your bus will arrive.
Enjoy your use!
