On this page we'll give you a rundown of the most popular apps and highlight the features that set them apart from each other.

Go!SMTD

The official Go!SMTD mobile app is now available for Apple and Android devices! Now you can purchase mobile fares on the go, including individual rides and period passes (1-day, 7-day, and 31-day).

Notice: Period passes are to be used by individuals, not shared amongst multiple riders. Sharing of unlimited passes is considered theft of SMTD fare and could result in suspension or revocation of riding privileges. As of 12/19/2023, period passes will no longer be available for fixed route use in the mobile app until further notice. See this news posting for more information.
