Denver Ride app for iPhone and iPad
Know now when that next train is going to arrive or preplan your public transit trip, all with a smooth, quick application.
Denver Ride uses your current location to calculate the next departure times of your four closest stations (additional options allow you to see the departure from any station). Follow the departure to see the arrival times at all approaching stations including transfers.
Planning your trip beforehand? Denver Ride also provides a manual mode so that you can set the time and station yourself. This includes an option to set an arrival time so that you know when you need to leave.
Denver Ride works completely without network connection for fast loading and, if there is a schedule update, it will download the new timetables for you, with no need to wait for a new version of the app.

Pros and cons of Denver Ride app for iPhone and iPad
Denver Ride app good for
Great app but they are not updated with the A line so many routes and stations are missing. Please update your app!
I use this app pretty much everyday, for both realtime info and planning ahead. Schedule updates happen pretty quick (compared to other apps that have stopped updating altogether). The big thing I love is the bcycle section. The normal bcycle app is just awful, and this is so much better.
Some bad moments
Super basic. Low fictionally. It does what a paper schedule does. I want my money back stat. Much much better apps out there for Denver.
Pretty good app. Use it a bunch. Needs an update for airport line.
I live in downtown Denver and am constantly traveling on the RTD lightrail. My friends and family live all over the metro area and this app has been a major time saver.
Basic rundown: you tell it if youre going north or south, it grabs your current location, and then it tells you the next few train times. If youre trying to figure out timing in the future you can switch to manual mode and specify the station and time. The app is stable (its never crashed on me) and has yet to be wrong on a train time.
Compared with the RTD website and even other apps on iTunes this is by far the best solution.
This app really makes it easy to check the upcoming train schedule for the nearest train station and catch trains on the fly. It lets you know if you need to be running towards the station to catch the next train!
This application is easy to use and extremely helpful in navigating the Denver light rail system. I launch this application as I arrive at a station or when Im on the train to figure out when Ill get to my destination. I also launch it in the office when Im planning a route in advance. The colored text make it simple to quickly find my way. Its intuitive and comprehensive; very well done.
This great app for RTD Light Rail in Denver is my best friend! It presents the schedules in a highly usable fashion, showing exact times and stations that match my location and hour (but allows me to specify a different location or hour). The presentation even matches the colors of the RTD map and saves tons of time for day-to-day commute or special occasions. Looks great and easy to use!
