Is there an app or website for live updates on Mallorca's public transport?

For getting around the island smoothly, the TIB (Transport de les Illes Balears) app is your best companion. It offers live updates for buses running routes that connect Palma with towns like Alcúdia, Pollença, and Manacor, as well as services into the Tramuntana mountain range. Using this app, you can check real-time bus arrivals and departures, find route options, and stay informed about any delays or schedule changes. This is particularly handy if you’re planning trips on popular lines like the Ma-11 to Sóller or the Ma-13 heading north along the Serra de Tramuntana.

In addition to the TIB app, the official Mallorca public transport website provides live maps and timetables, which help track Palma Metro and the heritage railway between Palma and Sóller. For those driving or cycling, local community forums and social media groups often share useful real-time traffic reports and updates on roadworks on main arteries such as the Ma-19 towards Cala d’Or or the Ma-10 climbing through the Tramuntana. By combining these digital tools, navigating the island’s transport network becomes far less stressful and more predictable, especially during festivals like Sant Sebastià or busy summer weekends on Es Trenc beach.
