It's easy like Sunday morning! Head to the 'Trips' tab at the bottom left of your screen and type in where you want to go. Then click 'Route' and you'll see a whole range of trip options based on your travel preferences. You can also choose to leave now or plan ahead to leave or arrive at a certain time.
If you've set any 'favourites', you can simply choose one of these from your 'instant results', click 'Route' and voilà – there are your trip options.
In the 'Profile' tab, there's an option to show service alerts for public transport. In this screen, you can see all the alerts for a certain mode of transport or search for alerts on a particular bus route, train or tram line.
After selecting your planned trip, a 'share' icon will appear in the top right corner of your screen. Tap on the icon and then select 'Share Trip' from the list of pop-up options.
arevo caters for this by allowing you to prioritise your travel by money, time, carbon, convenience, and exercise.
The app prompts you to set your priorities when you sign up, but if you skipped this step or you've changed your mind, you can always adjust this later by going to 'Profile' > 'Settings' > 'Priorities'. The duration, price and CO2 emissions of your trip are clearly displayed for each travel option, and you can filter for these at the top of the search page as well.
We all have our own preferences for different modes of transport and not all of us have a car/bike/Myki. arevo lets you select the modes of transport you use often, minimise those you use occasionally, and remove others that you don't use so they won't appear in your searches.
Go to 'Profile' > 'Settings' > 'Transport' to select your personal transport preferences. You can also change these preferences on a trip-by-trip basis as part of the journey planner. When you're looking at your trip options, simply click on 'Transport' in the top right corner of the screen to select your preferred modes of transport for the trip.
arevo currently enables you to top up your myki card and book an Uber ride within the app. You'll be sent to our partners' apps to complete any carshare, bikeshare or car parking bookings.

You sure can. Just search for and select your chosen trip, and a 'share' icon will appear in the top right corner of your screen. Tap on the icon and then select 'Add to Favourites' from the list of pop-up options.
Go to the 'myki' tab and fill in your myki username and password. This will send you to a page where you can add myki cards and quickly top up by choosing an amount (for myki money) or number of days (for a myki pass). Just like that, you're good to go! Definitely beats waiting in line when you're late for the train...
myki top-ups are usually processed within 30 minutes, at which point your myki balance will be updated. In some rare instances, however, it can take up to 90 minutes for the top-up to process and 24 hours for the balance to be updated.
Your myki balance in arevo will always be accurate and include all forms of top-ups.
