About Free Request

This is the help page for Transit Royale, a paid premium version of the Transit app. The page says core app features remain free and that Royale unlocks certain features, including full departure times and vehicle tracking for all transit lines, an expanded trip planner, and additional customization options. Prices vary by region and are shown in the app. The page also describes a one-week free trial on annual plans, with one trial allowed per user.

Some transit agencies sponsor Royale and offer it free to their riders. Riders who receive an in-app message from their agency about the upgrade can use this page for more information. Riders who cannot afford a subscription can apply for a community subscription. The page states that Royale is tied to the App Store or Google Play account used to buy it, not to a Transit account, so the same store account is needed to restore it on a new phone.

Key features

  • Look up future departure times and track vehicles on any transit line
  • Expanded trip result counts in the trip planner
  • Custom emoji and nickname for the GO leaderboard
  • Custom app icon and colour scheme
  • More than 20 additional icons to mark favourite places
  • Free access through a transit agency sponsorship, where available

Free Request FAQ

How can I get Royale for free?
If your transit agency sponsors Royale, you will receive a message in the app about the upgrade. Riders who cannot afford a subscription can apply for a community subscription, and the page describes how to ask for it.
What do I need to restore Royale on a new phone?
Download Transit using the same Apple ID or Google Play account you used to buy Royale, because the subscription is tied to that store account.
Is there a free trial?
On an annual subscription, you get a one-week free trial that you can cancel at any time. The subscription starts at the end of the trial. Only one free trial is available per user.
