This looks a lot like Transit (transitapp.com), which also has a similar crowdsourcing feature. And I believe other apps like Citymapper and Moovit also rely on users’ reports. Does this app have anything new in particular?

After TransitApp’s terrible redesign, I’m happy to see competition in this space.
