Know when your bus is coming
Before you leave the house. TheNextBus is a small WiFi display for your hallway or desk, showing live London bus arrival times for up to two stops near you, powered by TfL data.

Three moves, every morning
- 01
Pick your stops
Search for up to two bus stops near your address and choose the routes you actually take.
- 02
It fetches live arrivals
TheNextBus polls TfL's live arrivals API so the times on screen are always current.
- 03
Glance on your way out
Mount it by the door. One look tells you if you've got two minutes or twenty.
06:55 — the sky turns
What ships in the box
Two configurable stops
Track two bus stops and routes at once — home and the school run, or two directions from the same stop.
Live TfL data
Arrival times come straight from Transport for London's live API.
Touch route picker
Tap a card on the device itself to change route without opening the configurator.
Automatic day/night mode
The display dims itself between 9pm and 5am, and you can override it with a tap.
No app, no drivers
Set up WiFi and stops from a browser tab — nothing to install.
Updates itself
New firmware installs over WiFi, so the device keeps improving after it's on your shelf.

Frequently asked questions
+Which areas are supported?
London only, for now — TheNextBus uses Transport for London's bus arrival data, so it only works for stops within TfL's network.
+Is this an official TfL product?
No. TheNextBus is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Transport for London.
+What does setup involve?
You connect the device once over USB to enter your WiFi details and pick your stops, using a browser — no app or drivers required. See our how-to-use guide for the full walkthrough.
+When will it ship, and when does checkout open?
TheNextBus is still in development and testing. Join the waitlist and we'll email you as soon as checkout opens.
+What happens with my email address?
We only use it to let you know when checkout opens. No spam, no sharing with third parties.
+What's the enclosure made of?
The case is 3D printed. The product is still being refined, so finish and tolerances may vary slightly between units.
