You can skip the app store for now.

If you have searched for a Brisbane public transport app, you are after one thing: a simple way to plan a trip, see when the next service leaves, and not get stranded at midnight. You can do all of that right now, without installing anything.
GoThere is a Brisbane travel tool that runs in your browser. A native app is in the works and we intend to release one soon, but everything you would want from it already lives on this site.
What it does today
GoThere plans trips across South East Queensland the way a good app would. The route planner compares trains, buses, ferries and walking, then ranks them by what matters to you: quickest, fewest transfers, least walking, or even the driest route when it is bucketing down.
There is live departures for any stop, and a last service home tool that tells you the latest safe time to leave so you do not miss the final train. That is the trio most people open an app for.
No download, but it feels like an app
Because it is a website, there is nothing to install and nothing to update, so you are always on the latest version. And if you would like it sitting on your home screen like a regular app, you can add it in two taps: on iPhone, use Safari's Share button then "Add to Home Screen"; on Android, use Chrome's menu and "Install app".
After that it opens full-screen from your home screen, with no browser bar in sight. Most people cannot tell the difference.
And the actual app?
It is coming. A native GoThere app is on the roadmap, and we will make plenty of noise when it lands. Until then the website does the job, so there is no reason to wait to plan your next trip.
Bookmark it, add it to your home screen, and you are set. When the app arrives, you will already know your way around.
