How we let you know
How the alert works when your line is arriving, with notifications or without them.
- What is “Notify me”?You pick the line you're waiting for at your stop and we tell you when it's arriving. You don't have to keep watching the screen.
- Why doesn't the “Notify me” button show up?It's offered when the bus still has more than a minute to go. If you already have an alert for that line, the button changes.
- Will it notify me if my phone is in my pocket?Yes, if you allow notifications. Without them, Garita has to stay open with the screen on.
- How do I cancel an alert?Tap the line's button, which says “We'll let you know when it's arriving”. That cancels it.
- When does the alert end?When the bus arrives, when it passes by or goes out of service, or two hours after you asked.
- What do I do if it didn't notify me?The minutes are approximate and sometimes they fail. If something strange happened, tell us from the app or write to hola@garita.uy.
