Announcing FlashCast Sonar

1) Get Sonar for free in the Play Store.
2) Hit the road.


With our free Android app, you'll be able to...

  • View nearby transit stages & routes wherever you are
  • See current end-to-end route times updated hourly
  • Track where our SmartBuses are and where they're headed (updated in real-time)
  • Suggest routes/stages not already listed (we love crowd-sourcing)
  • See 'buzz' from the street - watch as passengers interact with our displays via SMS

Sonar's route and stage data is compiled and maintained by FlashCast Kenya, and builds heavily off of a dataset produced by the Digital Matatus collaboration between University of Nairobi, Columbia University’s Center for Sustainable Urban Development, MIT’s Civic Data Design Lab, and Groupshot.
