About this app
Travel confidently around London with Transport for London's official app, built around our iconic live Tube map. Try switching to step-free mode and watch the map adjust to show only accessible stations, ensuring your journeys are as smooth as possible. With a clear, user-friendly design, TfL Go is easy for everyone to use.
Find the Best Route
We'll suggest multiple ways to get to your destination, whether by Tube, London Overground, Elizabeth line, DLR, Tram, National Rail, IFS Cloud Cable Car, or even cycling and walking. You choose the route that suits you best.
Check Before You Travel
Get live arrival times for Buses, Tube, London Overground, Elizabeth Line, DLR, Tram, and National Rail. Check the live status of all TfL lines and stations directly on the map, or view a summary of current disruptions in the "Status" section.
Freedom to Explore
Find travel options tailored to your needs, including step-free journeys and routes avoiding stairs or escalators. Journey plans automatically adapt to the accessibility status of stations, helping you avoid disruptions. TfL Go also supports TalkBack and different text sizes, making it more accessible for everyone.
Manage Your Payments
Create an account or log in to manage your payments for travel across London. Top up pay as you go credit or purchase Travelcards for your Oyster card, and view your journey history for both Oyster and contactless cards registered to your account.
Note: Oyster and contactless accounts can only be accessed within UK/Europe.
Understand Station Facilities
Check how busy a station is right now, or see if it has toilets or Wi-Fi access. Find detailed information about step-free access and interchanges including platform gap width, step height and boarding methods available.

On the whole a good app. A few improvements would make it a great app particularly to help people from outside London. 1 - Show the zones on the map. It will save having to download a separate map. 2 - make it easier to plan journeys by allowing you to easily put in from location and different travel times rather than 'go now'. 3 - allow a longer time before the app auto refunds oyster credit or make it so you dont have to tap a reader to apply it to card. It allows for ahead planning.

Hi Richard, thank you for your feedback and ideas for improvement. Regarding point 2, you can do this currently in TfL Go; tap the 'Current location' button in blue to change the from location when searching for a journey; tap on 'Leaving now' to adjust the time of departure or arrival.

Writing this after the app led me to believe that I could catch the last bus of the evening, but no bus arrives and the app just acts as if it never existed (clearly some sort of hallucination). this is on top of the fact that it has extremely limited functionality compared to other maps apps. No London map, no bus map, can't look at bus arrival times at specific stops unless you turn on location (and still only shows you nearby stops). Extremely disappointed and uninstalling now.

This app is atrocious. It is not intuitive or user friendly. I used to program computers and I would have been ashamed to publish something this bad. It tells me I'm offline when I have 5 bars of signal, it makes it difficult to plan a simple journey, and worse if you want to go from somewhere other than your current location. You can't even tell if it's actually doing anything and you can't simply swipe down to refresh. Abysmally bad. Use a paper timetable or ask a local!
