Frequently asked questions

Why don't I see any stops?

Varda currently covers Antalya, Türkiye only. If you are outside Antalya, the map still shows Antalya's stops and you can tap any of them. If you are in Antalya, check that location access is on. iPhone: Settings → Varda → Location → While Using the App. Android: Settings → Apps → Varda → Permissions → Location → Allow only while using the app.

How accurate are arrival times?

Times with the live signal icon are based on real-time bus positions. Other times come from the published timetable. If live data is older than 45 seconds, the app shows when it was last updated.

How do arrival alerts work?

On a stop screen, press and hold a bus to be notified 2, 5 or 10 minutes before it arrives, or when it arrives. Allow notifications for Varda in Settings if you don't receive them.

Why does Varda use my location in the background?

Only during a trip you start yourself, so it can tell you when to get off even while your phone is locked. Tracking stops when the trip ends. While it runs, iOS shows the blue location indicator and Android shows a notification.

Does Varda need an account?

No. There is no sign-up, and Varda has no in-app purchases.
