Apple has reportedly enabled the Transit feature in Apple Maps in India. Gadgets 360 independently confirmed the rollout.
Transit lets users get public transport directions. It shows departure times, connections, and fares for supported services. It also displays nearby departures and major transit lines.
Apple has not officially announced the India launch yet. The country still does not appear on Apple’s public list of regions where Transit is available.
A MacRumors contributing researcher first reported the change on X. Gadgets 360 then verified that the feature works in Apple Maps in India.
Users can view departure and arrival times along with connection details. In some regions, fare information also appears. Apple Maps can show service disruptions as well. It may display the real-time location of buses and trains.
The app can send alerts as users approach their stop. The Transit Nearby option lets people check nearby departures. Users can also plan trips around a chosen departure or arrival time. They can pin frequently used transit lines for quicker access. A dedicated Transit map mode highlights major lines.
In some regions, Transit payments work through Apple Pay. Users may add a compatible transit card to Apple Wallet or use the transport operator’s app, depending on the system.
At present, India remains absent from Apple’s official Transit availability page. However, independent checks confirm that the feature is already working in the country.
Earlier this year, iOS 27 also updated Apple Maps. The update improved the Flyover experience with aerial imagery and AI-based city views. Apple also added Local Lists in the United States to highlight restaurants and other local spots.
