So, what type of ticket should you buy?

So, what type of ticket should you buy?

February 24, 2024 by Administrator

Another innovation from Clever Commute: An easy-to-use tool which helps you pick the ticket you need based on your hybrid work schedule

The boss wants you back in the office and you now need to buy your commutation ticket.

But which ticket to buy? Daily? Weekly? Flexpass? Monthly?

Eliminate the guess work. Use the Clever Commute calculator to visually pick your dates and let our robots do the work.

Ready to begin? Let's go!

NOTE: This is a work-in-progress and the features will continue to evolve. Please give us feedback about your experience. Always verify your choices and double-check them via official information from your transit provider.

Running to stand still in the app stores

Running to stand still in the app stores

January 8, 2022 by Administrator

The one-liner: Please go to your app store and rate (with "stars") and review (with "words") the Clever Commute app.

More: For an app publisher, it's not enough to simply be in the app store. In order to show up in searches, I need to continuously:

  • release new versions of the app
  • update all of the info about the app
    (description, pictures, promotional videos, etc)

I gladly do these things with passion.

Call to Action!

Call to Action!

There are three other things that are incredibly helpful for keeping the app visible.
I CAN'T do these, but our supporters can:

  1. Rate the app using the "5-star" system
  2. Review the app (even if it's one sentence)
  3. Install the app, keep it installed, and use it

App store steps to Rate and Review

  • iOS - video / written instructions
  • Android - written instructions

If there is anything stopping you from leaving 5 stars or otherwise-positive feedback, please give me the chance to address your concerns.

If you are looking for ideas on what to say about the app, look at these testimonials.

How Clever Commute integrates the official info from transit providers

How Clever Commute integrates the official info from transit providers

March 7, 2021 by Administrator

As users of our Premium service, know, Clever Commute can be much more than a place for crowdsourced info. (ref: The five data sources)

And, as commuters know, the transit providers continue to try to share timely info directly with their commuters.

Clever Commute can bring both of these together in the app.

For years, "official info" was a Premium feature. During the covid crisis, we will make this content available to all users,

Here's an example:

Let’s work together in these exceptional times

Let’s work together in these exceptional times

June 6, 2020 by Administrator

(Posted on the eve of Phase 1 of NYC COVID-19 reopening )

Clever Commute is a small business. Funded and operated by a 5-day-a-week NYC commuter.

I have been doing this for 14 years...and I'm not planning on stopping anytime soon.

As a way to thank our Premium users, I am offering (at no cost) the opportunity for you to use the Clever Commute platform to promote/advertise your product or service.

  • Example of where the promotional message would appear
  • More information about our advertising platform

Logistical notes:

  • If you (or your spouse/family) have a product or service which would benefit from exposure to the tri-state commuter community, then please contact me.
  • Due to supply and demand, we may not be able to accommodate all.
  • This is a good faith offer with an intent to keep things simple and non-contentious. (e.g., no political ads)
