    The Perfect Smartwatch App for Public Transit

    Kickstarter Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1527306840/smartwatch-transit-app

    With the burst of interest in wearable technology and the craze over the upcoming release of the Apple Watch, smartwatches have taken the country by storm. With so many features and opportunities for app development, we centered in on one question: What information could be vitally useful while you're on the move, but accessible with no input and just a glance? Transit times.

    With that we set out to build the simplest, easiest, and most useful transit app for the Pebble watch. We just released the first version of the app which supports the subway and commuter regional rail lines (in realtime including delays) of the beautiful city of Philadelphia: Philly Transit (http://goo.gl/axCfau). We already love the app so much we decided to take it one step further.

    Why would we keep our app private in Philadelphia and only on one device when we can share it with the rest of you? By adding more cities and expanding to other platforms, we envision our app to be used by commuters around the world every single day. Help us make this dream a reality, and please, stop running for the next train!

    Here are some screenshots from our Philly Transit App:

    While we plan to eventually add support for most cities worldwide, we are anticipating a launch in time for the release of the Apple Watch with support for these cities:

    New York
    Chicago
    Los Angeles
    San Francisco Bay Area
    Washington DC
    Boston
    Seattle
    Paris
    Berlin
    Rome
    Munich
    Frankfurt
    London
    Madrid

    If your city isn't listed here, don't fret! By early summer 2015 we expect to support over 20 cities in the United States alone.
