MyTrain
Tap on a train to follow it today: a countdown, a reminder before it leaves, and alerts if it’s late or cancelled.
Regular and later trains
Tap Repeat on MyTrain’s card and it’s MyTrain every weekday, alerts and all (). Change days for others. One each way.
For a train past the next 90 minutes, up to a week ahead, tap Later trains under the board.
MyLuas
Pick your stop on the Red or Green line, and where you get off. The next trams both ways, tonight’s last, and live trams on the map.
Tap the bookmark on a tram, or My tram on the map, to follow it: a countdown, a reminder before it’s due, and a link to share it live.
At Connolly, Heuston, Docklands and Broombridge, Next trams at on the train board opens MyLuas there.
MyBus
Dublin Bus and Go-Ahead. From is the stop you get on at; To, where you’re going, is up to you. Search for a stop by number or name, or a route, tap Near me, or pick one you’ve saved (★). Or tap a stop on the map: From here or To here.
Without To, it’s every bus from your stop in the next 90 minutes. With it, the buses that get you there soonest come first, and the last bus. Tap to follow one, stop by stop.
MyBusÉireann works the same way, for Bus Éireann’s buses.
MyBikes
Every dublinbikes station on the map, live. Zoom in for each one’s bikes on its dot, and tap a station for its bikes, e-bikes and free docks. Near me opens the nearest station with a bike, or search the list below the map for one by name.
- Bikes
- Only 1 or 2 bikes
- No bikes
- Full: nowhere to return a bike
MyMap
Everything moving at once: every train in Ireland, the Luas, and every Dublin Bus, Go-Ahead and Bus Éireann bus running now. The chips under the map show or hide each; Bikes and Bus stops are off until you turn them on.
Type a route number, like 15 or 27x, to see only those buses. Tap a train or bus for its station or route page, or Follow bus to follow it in MyBus. Near me now centres the map on you.
myFutureRoutes
The planned MetroLink, Estuary to Charlemont, Luas Cork, Ballincollig to Mahon Point, or Luas Finglas, Charlestown to Broombridge (the switch at the top), and our guess at Luas Lucan, marked *, as no route is published yet: its stations on the map, dashed as it isn’t built yet. Tap a station, on the map or in the list, for what’s there and what it connects with.
Nothing is running yet, so there are no times.
Station and stop pages
Every station, Luas stop, bus stop, bus route and dublinbikes station has a page of its own: its timetable, and what’s next, live. Bookmark the one you use, or share it.
Tap ↗ beside a station or stop in the list, or Station page, Stop page or Route page on the map.
On a bus stop’s page, ★ saves it for MyBus, and a route number opens that route’s page, with its stops each way and the next bus to follow live.

In the installed app, the train you follow stays on your lock screen with when it leaves and where it is. Tap Lock screen on its card to turn that off.
