Transport GZM for Android

GZM Transit Companion — Quick summary

Transport GZM is a free Android app built to simplify public transport across the Górnośląsko‑Zagłębiowska Metropolia in Poland. It helps passengers plan journeys, view live vehicle positions, and buy tickets without visiting a ticket office. The app supports user accounts for discount management and accepts common card payments as well as mobile wallets such as Google Wallet and Apple Pay.

Core functions and user tools

• Real‑time tracking of buses and trams so you can see vehicle positions and estimated arrivals.
• Route planning and journey search to help pick the best connections across the network.
• On‑device ticket purchases that remove the need to visit service points.
• Account pages where discounts are applied and multiple payment methods are stored.

Ticketing capabilities and fare optimization

• Monitor up to five virtual stop displays simultaneously to keep tabs on approaching vehicles.
• Push notifications that alert you when your vehicle is near or about to arrive.
• A Start/Stop travel mode that reduces fare costs by charging only for the actual travel interval.
• Purchase longer‑term passes (for example, Metrobilety) which become valid immediately after purchase.

Coverage, reach and benefits

The app is intended to improve convenience for the many people using the region’s transport: the GZM network comprises nearly 1,700 vehicles servicing 56 municipalities and handles roughly 160 million passenger journeys each year. Transport GZM aims to make that network more accessible and easier to navigate.

Other options

If you want to try an alternative, there are other free travel apps available (for example, tripuntold) that offer similar planning and purchasing features.
