Oy! A Melbourne public transport app that tells you when to leave.
we’ll annoy you when it’s time.
oy watches your tram, train or bus and tells you when to leave. Not before, not after, and in whichever voice you can stand before coffee.
Watching it. You’ll hear about it when it matters.
Pick who
nags you.Same tram, five voices. Slide the tram along, then tap whoever you can stand. The countdown up top switches to them.
Set it once.
about a minute.Pick a voice
Mate, Bogan, Boss, Mother-in-law or therapist. Swap whenever.
Where are we going?
From and to. Tell it the trips you make all the time.
Pick a way there.
Up to three ways. The best one’s already picked.
When do you need to be there?
oy works back to when you leave, and watches it.
Got it. I’ll watch it.Go do your thing. I’ll yell when it’s time.
What if
it goes wrong?Missed it? I’ll watch the 8:24 instead.
No sulking, no starting over. oy moves straight on to the next one and tells you when to go again.
Best guess. no GPS.
When a tram stops sending where it is, oy works from the timetable and says it’s guessing. It won’t pretend.
Drive, cycle, or get dropped off.
Tell it how you get to the stop and it counts that in. A change on the way works too, one per trip.
The rest, quickly.
Do I keep the app open?
No. Set the trip and get on with your morning. oy taps you on the shoulder when it’s time.
Will it bug me on weekends?
Only on the days you pick for each trip. Weekdays, weekends, Tuesdays only. Your call.
How many trips?
Two come with oy, so there and back is covered. A third trip is Oy Plus.
Do I need an account?
No. The pings work without one.
Get oy.
it lives on your phone. that’s the point.
