Important: because of a change to SFMTA's information system, Muni Time is not working at the this time.
Each San Francisco Muni stops or station has a 5 digit ID number, often posted on the sign or shelter.
Enter a stop ID above to view real-time arrival info.

Muni Time is a mobile web app which displays real-time arrival info for the San Francisco Muni transit system.
Muni Time lets you create separate home screen bookmarks for your more used stops and takes advantage of a feature in both Android and iOS to launch them like a native app, in a full-screen mode without the standard browser tools or address bar.
Because Muni Time is just a web page bookmarked on your home screen, you can add as many Muni stop or station shortcuts as you want.
Tip: creating a folder for your shortcuts is an easy way to keep them from cluttering your home screen.
Muni Time started as a native app named Muniverse in 2009 with Nick O’Neill to create a better display of arrival times using NextBus data than other apps at the time.
Muniverse 2.0, circa 2011
As time passed, other apps improved, added features, and we moved on to other projects, it became impractical to maintain the native Muniverse app.
The Muni Time web app started shortly after a simple way to look up arrival times for a single Muni stop ID.
But Muniverse ID was never developed further and eventually developed an error that prevented it from displaying arrival times because of a slight change to the way the data was formatted.
Muni Time is a rewrite of the web app that includes several new features. You can now combine up to 6 stop IDs into a single home screen shortcut or browser bookmark.

Each San Francisco Muni transit stop has a unique ID number you can use to look up arrival time predictions.
These 5-6 digit numbers are posted at most – but not all – Muni stops.
Here's where to look for them:
Stop ID numbers are located on the outside of the shelter alongside the Muni logo and lines serving the stop.
The exact position varies, but Stop ID numbers are generally located at the top or bottom of pole-mounted flag signs.
At some bus stops without a shelter or proper sign, Stop ID numbers are often located on a sticker.
At stops marked by a yellow bar painted in the street instead of a sign, the stop ID number is often stenciled above in smaller-size white numbers.
