On my mobile ...
There are now several ways to get bus times or plan a journey on your mobile phone.
For details of next departures from any bus stop in Britain there are several options to get real-time predicted times (where available) or scheduled departure times:
Traveline-txt is an SMS service ... send the code* for your stop to 84268. Each enquiry costs 25p plus one standard message (25p not charged for stops in Lincs).
Simply text traveline to 84268 for a bookmark, or go straight to nextbuses.mobi, to access this service on your mobile phone browser. Normal data charges apply.
For iPhone or iPod Touch there are two apps : NextBuses and MyBus. Both are available from the AppStore. You pay a small charge for the app - then normal data charges apply.
For Android there are also three apps : CatchThatBus, MyBus and Transicast UK. These are available from the Android Market. Again you pay a small charge for the app - then normal data charges apply.
To plan a journey ...
... use any phone which has an internet browser and a data connection. Simply go to our site and click the large text & mobile button. Normal data charges apply.
If you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch there is the traveline south & east app .... great for journey planning across the South, East and Midland regions and London (and for trains and coaches throughout Britain). And it includes NextBuses. It costs just 69p from the App Store. Normal data charges apply.
* Click here to find the code for a stop. We show these "SMS codes" on journey plans, on separate pages at the back of each service timetable in pdf format, or in the mouse-over text for each stop of an on-screen (HTML) service timetable. And they are on Google Maps, too. You can use the codes in the traveline-txt SMS service or with NextBuses.
