The Israeli-made transportation app Moovit has reached half a billion users, the company said in a statement. Moovit also announced that they released new features for their Israeli users that will be gradually introduced in other countries as well.
 
Launched in 2012, the app has become a leader in the field of urban mobility. It operates in more than 90 countries and 40 languages.
 
On lines currently showing real-time arrival times, users in Israel will be able to track their bus as it moves along its journey thanks to a bus icon moving on a map in real-time.
 
Moreover, the app will offer instant directions to their favorite locations when opened.
 
“Moovit continues to invest in upgrading the travel experience and grows daily at a fast and completely organic rate,” Yovav Meydad, Moovit’s VP of growth and marketing, said.
